Test X: Incorrect Vehicle Identification (DTC C1414): Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Monterey and 2004 Ford Freestar. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
RCM monitors communication condition and circuits of impact sensors and Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) system for an embedded vehicle identification code. If RCM detects conflicting information from impact sensors or OCS system, it will store DTC C1414 in memory. AIR BAG warning light will also flash Light Flash Code (LFC). Refer to table for corresponding LFC and associated fault. See INCORRECT MODEL LEVEL LIGHT FLASH CODES (LFCS) table.
