- Select DISPLAY DTCs function for BCM and PCM on scan tool. If any DTCs are retrieved, go to next step. If no DTCs are retrieved, diagnose and repair Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) system by symptom. See ANTI-THEFT SYSTEMS article. For 2002, see ANTI-THEFT SYSTEMS article.
- If communication DTCs (DTCs beginning with a "U") are not retrieved, go to next step. If any DTCs beginning with a "U" are retrieved, go to TEST B: SCAN TOOL DOES NOT COMMUNICATE WITH CLASS 2 DEVICE under SYSTEM TESTS. If any powertrain DTCs (DTCs beginning with a "P") are retrieved, diagnose and repair powertrain concern. See SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE. For 2002, see SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE.
- If DTC B1000, B1004, B1007, or B1009 are not retrieved, go to next step. If DTC B1000, B1004, B1007, or B1009 are retrieved, perform appropriate test in accordance with DTC retrieved. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS .
