DTC Descriptor

DTC P1630

-
Theft Deterrent Learn Mode Active

Circuit/System Description

When replacing a remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR), the engine control module (ECM) must learn the new fuel enable password from the replacement RCDLR. If the ECM is replaced with a service replacement part, it is in a functional state to automatically learn the fuel enable password. If the RCDLR is replaced, the ECM must be placed in learn mode so it can learn the new RCDLR password. This DTC indicates the ECM is in a functional state to learn the RCDLR fuel enable password.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The ECM is in learn mode.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P1630 will set any time the ECM enters learn mode.

The security indicator will illuminate.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* A current DTC will be cleared upon a successful engine start after exit of learn mode.

* A history DTC will be cleared after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles.
