Diagnostic Instructions

  • Perform the Diagnostic System Check – Vehicle See: Vehicle> Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Diagnostic System Check – Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
  • Review Strategy Based Diagnosis See: Vehicle > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
  • Diagnostic Procedure Instructions See: Vehicle > Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview > Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptor
OTC B3902 00
– Incorrect Immobilizer Identifier Received

Circuit/System Description

When certain modules are programmed and configured during installation, the module learns a specific environmen identifier which is unique to the vehicle. The environment identifier is used to prevent the swapping modules between vehicles. The body control module (BCM) is the keeper of the environment identifier. The instrument cluste1 electronic brake control module (EBCM), HVAC control module, sensing and diagnostic module (SDM), enginecontrol module (ECM), and steering column lock control module, if equipped, each learn the environment identifier  during their configuration process. During vehicle operation, each of these modules compare their environment identifier to that of the BCM. If the identifiers match, vehicle starting is allowed. If an environment identifier does no1 match, vehicle starting is disabled.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition is in the ACCESSORY or RUN position.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The control module’s environment identifier does not match the environment identifier stored by the BCM.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

  • The security indicator in the instrument cluster will illuminate.
  • Vehicle starting will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
A current OTC will be cleared when the module learns a correct environment identifier.
