DTC Descriptor
DTC P1631
Immobilizer Fuel Enable Signal Not Correct
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) sends the pre-release information to the engine
control module (ECM) via the
serial data circuit. The ECM then sends a challenge to the BCM. Both the ECM and
BCM perform a calculation
on this challenge. If the calculated response from the BCM equals the
calculation performed by the ECM, the
ECM will allow vehicle starting. The BCM follows this action by sending the
remaining immobilizer data to the
ECM. If the immobilizer data sent by the BCM matches that stored by the ECM, the
ECM will allow the engine
to remain running.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition is in the ACCESSORY or RUN position.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ECM receives incorrect immobilizer data from 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 DTC will be cleared when correct immobilizer data is received.
- A history DTC will be cleared after 40 malfunction-free ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification
- Verify there are no immobilizer DTCs set in the K9 Body Control Module.
- If any immobilizer DTCs are set in the K9 Body Control Module
Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle
- If no immobilizer DTCs are set in the K9 Body Control Module
- Perform the K9 Body Control Module immobilizer learn using the body
control module IMMO Function
with Existing Transponder or Remote Key in SPS. Refer to Immobilizer System
Component Programming.
- Verify the engine starts after the K9 Body Control Module completes the
learn procedure.
- If the engine does not start
Perform the K20 Engine Control Module immobilizer learn using the engine
control module
IMMO Learn in SPS. Refer to Immobilizer System Component Programming.
- All OK.
