Pinpoint Test C : B10D9:87: Notes

Diagnostic Overview 

B10D9:87 

Refer to PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operations and Fault Conditions 

The BCM supplies voltage to the PATS transceiver. When the ignition is turned to the RUN or START position, the BCM initiates the key interrogation sequence. The BCM starts the interrogation sequence by generating a signal and sending that signal to the transceiver on the transmit (TX) circuit. When the transceiver receives the signal from the BCM, it reads the PATS key and generates a challenge response to the BCM signal. The transceiver sends the challenge response back to the BCM on the receive (RX) circuit.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
