Test D: Anti-Theft Number Of Programmed Ignition Keys Is Below Minimum

  1. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. Connect New Generation Star (NGS) tester to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located below driver's side of instrument panel, to right of steering column. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Using NGS tester, perform instrument cluster self-test. If DTC B1213 is only DTC retrieved, go to next step. If any DTCs other than B1213 are stored, repair as necessary. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX  table under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
  2. Using NGS tester, monitor instrument cluster Parameter Identification Data (PID) NUMKEYS. If PID indicates less than 2 encoded ignition keys programmed, go to next step. If PID indicates 2 or more encoded ignition keys programmed, system is okay at this time.
  3. NOTE: Two programmed encoded ignition keys must be available to start vehicle.
  4. Obtain NEW encoded ignition key(s). Insert NEW encoded ignition key into ignition lock cylinder. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Program key. See KEY PROGRAMMING - ERASE ALL KEYS & PROGRAM 2 KEYS  under PROGRAMMING. If THEFT indicator illuminates for 3 seconds and then goes out, clear DTCs and perform instrument cluster self-test to ensure all codes have been cleared. If THEFT indicator illuminates continuously, repeat this step with a second NEW encoded ignition key. If THEFT indicator flashes, retrieve DTCs for new fault. Perform appropriate test. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX  table under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
