Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the theft deterrent transponder and the X1 harness connector at the ECM.
  2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1V between the following signal circuit terminals at the theft deterrent key transponder harness connector and ground:
    • Signal circuit terminal 12
    • Signal circuit terminal 13
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage.
  3. Ignition ON, test for infinite resistance between the following signal circuit terminals at the theft deterrent key transponder harness connector and ground:
    • Signal circuit terminal 12
    • Signal circuit terminal 13
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.
  4. Test for less than 1Ω between the following signal circuit terminals:
    • Signal circuit terminal 12 at the theft deterrent key transponder harness connector and signal circuit terminal 10 at the ECM harness connector.
    • Signal circuit terminal 13 at the theft deterrent key transponder harness connector and signal circuit terminal 11 at the ECM harness connector.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance.
  5. Replace the theft deterrent key transponder.
  6. Clear all DTCs and attempt to start the vehicle. The vehicle should start and DTCs B2799 should not set.
    • If the vehicle does not start or the DTC is set, replace the ECM.
