DTC Descriptor
DTC B1001 00
- Option Configuration

Circuit/System Description

The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) stores a primary data key, which is a 4-digit number. When the ignition is turned ON, the SDM compares this information to the information stored in the body control module (BCM) over the serial data communication circuit. If there is a mismatch between the information stored in the SDM and BCM, DTC B1001 will set.

Conditions for Running the DTC

System voltage is between 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The 4-digit Primary Data Key stored in the SDM does not match the 4 digits stored in the BCM.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The SDM requests the instrument cluster to illuminate the AIR BAG indicator.
* The SDM disables all deployments.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The last 4-digit Primary Data Key in the SDM matches the last 4 digits stored in the BCM.

Diagnostic Aids

This DTC is an indication that an incorrect SDM is installed in the vehicle, or that the SDM and/or the BCM was replaced without reprogramming the BCM with the new information.

Circuit/System Verification

Note: Cycle the ignition after performing the Setup SDM Primary Key procedure in the BCM. This enables the BCM to read the new SDM primary Key value.

Verify the scan tool SDM Primary Key Status is Valid in the BCM.

If the SDM Primary Key Status is Invalid, perform the Setup SDM Primary Key procedure in the BCM.
