DTC Descriptor |
DTC B3902 00
Incorrect Immobilizer Identifier Received
Circuit/System Description |
When certain modules are programmed and configured during installation, the module learns a specific environment identifier which is unique to the vehicle. The environment identifier is used to prevent the swapping modules between vehicles. The body control module (BCM) is the keeper of the environment identifier. The instrument cluster, electronic brake control module (EBCM), HVAC control module, sensing and diagnostic module (SDM), engine control module (ECM), and steering column lock control module, if equipped, each learn the environment identifier during their configuration process. During vehicle operation, each of these modules compare their environment identifier to that of the BCM. If the identifiers match, vehicle starting is allowed. If an environment identifier does not match, vehicle starting is disabled.
Conditions for Running the DTC |
Ignition is in the ACCESSORY or RUN position.
Conditions for Setting the DTC |
The control module's environment identifier does not match the environment identifier stored by the BCM.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets |
• |
The security indicator in the instrument cluster will illuminate.
|
• |
Vehicle starting will be disabled.
|
Conditions for Clearing the DTC |
A current DTC will be cleared when the module learns a correct environment identifier.
