WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Dodge Charger and 2010 Chrysler 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- DETERMINING IF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) IS CURRENT NOTE: Diagnose any related Communication DTCs before continuing.
- With a scan tool, read and record DTCs.
- With the scan tool, clear DTCs.
- Turn the ignition off and remove the key from the ignition.
- Lock and close all doors to allow the VTSS to go from pre-arm to armed status and wait one minute.
- Disarm the VTSS.
- Using the scan tool, read DTCs.
Does the DTC reset?
Yes
- Go To step 2
No
- DTC is not active at this time. Test complete.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure
- INTRUSION SENSOR TRANSMITTER
- Disconnect the Intrusion Sensor Transmitter connector.NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
- Connect a known good Intrusion Sensor Transmitter.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, clear DTCs.
