Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The theft deterrent module (TDM) monitors the battery positive (B+) voltage available to it. If the voltage at the TDM is between 6-9 V, and the
voltage being reported by a serial data message is greater than 9 V, then DTC B1424 00 sets.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The Ignition is in Accessory or Run
* The diagnostic runs every 100 milliseconds.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
* Voltage at the B+ circuit is between 6 and 9 V.
* Reported battery voltage received via serial data is valid and is greater than 9 V.
* The above conditions have been met for 2 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* Security Indicator turns ON.
* The driver information center (DIC) displays the SERVICE THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM message.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* This DTC passes when the battery voltage at the TDM is greater than 9 V, or if the voltage reported by serial data is less than 9 V.
* A history DTC clears after 100 consecutive ignition cycles, if no failures are reported by this diagnostic.
Diagnostic Aids
A low voltage DTC in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system.

Circuit/System Testing
1. Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the battery voltage at the battery terminals.The voltage should be between 12.6 and
15.0 V.
瀚慖f the battery voltage is not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test (See: Starting and Charging/Testing and
Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/Charging System Test)
