    #02-09-41-001: Info - DTCs B1001, B1271 or B1780

    Set When Replacing/Reprogramming Other Modules -


    (May 24, 2002)

    Subject: DTCs B1001, B1271 or B1780 Set When


    Replacing/Reprogramming Other Modules

    Models: 1999-2003 Passenger Cars and Trucks


    with Class 2 Serial Data Communication Between Modules

    This bulletin is being revised to add model years and reflect changes in the Tech 2
    procedure and filing classification. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 99-06-
    03-010A (Section 6 -- Engine).

    Class 2 Serial Data Communication allows control modules (i.e. the Powertrain Control Module
    (PCM), the Body Control Module (BCM), the Dash Integration Module (DIM), the Instrument
    Panel Cluster (IPC), the radio, the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Controller,
    and the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) to exchange information. This information may
    be operational information or identification information. Among the identification information
    exchanged and compared within these modules is the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
    Typically the one module, the master module, broadcasts the VIN and all the other modules
    compare the VIN stored within itself. When the broadcast VIN does not match the VIN stored
    within the SDM, the following actions occur:

    • DTC B1001 Option Configuration Error is set and deployment of the airbags is inhibited.
    • DTC B1271 or a DTC B1780 Theft Locked.
    The VIN information is also used by the radio. When the VIN does not match the VIN
    stored within the radio, DTC B1271 or DTC B1780 is set and the radio is inoperative.

    Additionally, the master module will compare the SDM's part number (last four digits) to
    determine if the correct SDM is installed in the vehicle. If the SDM is the wrong part, a B1001
    will also set.

    This situation may occur when a vehicle is being repaired. When a PCM or a body control type
    module is replaced, the VIN information must be programmed into the replaced (new) control
    module. A module which has had VIN information entered into it (for example, one taken from
    another vehicle) cannot be reprogrammed. VIN information can only be entered into new
    modules. The ignition must be ON in order to program the control module. Since the VIN
    information is broadcast when the ignition goes to ON from any other ignition switch position,
    DTCs may be set in the SDM and/or the radio. Therefore, always follow the specified control
    module replacement procedures.

    1. After completing the repair, turn OFF the ignition for at least 30 seconds.
    2. Turn ON the ignition and check for DTCs using a Tech 2® scan tool.

    If DTCs B1001, B1271, or B1780 are present with a history status, DO NOT REPLACE THE
    SDM OR THE RADIO.

    3. Clear the DTCs from all modules using the Tech 2 scan tool.
    4. Remove the Tech 2® from the vehicle
    5. Ensure the proper operation of the SDM by turning OFF the ignition and then turning ON
    the ignition. The air bag warning indicator should flash seven times and then go OFF.

    Refer to Corporate Bulletin Number 99-09-41-001 for additional information regarding proper
    reprogramming of the new/replaced module.

    Clearing codes from the other modules is part of the replacement and reprogramming
    procedure for the replaced module. The repair is not complete unless all codes have been
    cleared from all modules.

    DO NOT SUBMIT CLAIMS FOR OTHER MODULE REPLACEMENTS OR REPROGRAMMING.

    GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these technicians of conditions that
    may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the
    equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT assume that the bulletin
    applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See your GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the
    information.
