This DTC is generated by the module when the Theft Lock is activated. This occurs when the VIN as received over the class 2 communication circuit and the VIN as stored in the module memory do not match. This also occurs when no VIN is received over the class 2 circuit. The only circuit required is the class 2 communications line.
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B1271 Theft Locked
This test is run every 300 milliseconds.
This DTC is generated by the module when the VIN as received over the class 2 communication circuit and the VIN as stored in the module memory do not match. This also occurs if no VIN is received over the class 2 circuit. This DTC test runs when the radio changes from OFF to ON.
The radio does not function. The radio will display Locked - THEFTLOCK Active.
Re-calibration with the correct calibrations for the vehicle, and cycling the radio to OFF, then to ON, will clear the DTC if there is no damage to the radio.
