When the radio is initially installed in the vehicle, the radio receives VIN information via serial data. The radio stores a portion of the VIN and compares this sequence to the VIN information received each time the radio powers on. The VIN in the radio is a single one-time learn.
The radio theft deterrent system is intended to disable or limit radio functionality if incorrect vehicle information is received by the radio. The radio disables functionality if the VIN information received by the radio does not match the VIN information that has been learned by the radio. This DTC is generated by the module when the Theft Protection is activated.
This DTC test runs when the radio changes from OFF to ON.
The radio has learned a correct VIN sequence and the VIN information received via serial data does NOT match the learned VIN sequence.
The radio may be disabled or have limited functionality. The radio display will indicate that theft protection is active.
