Pinpoint Test P: Pats Target Identifier

  1. Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    The ABS module and BCM share a secret code (target identifier) when the ignition is set to ON. This code is generated during the PATS programming procedure. If either a new BCM or a new ABS module has been installed, the PATS programming procedure must be carried out.

    REFER to: PERIMETER ANTI-THEFT ALARM - SYSTEM OPERATION AND COMPONENT DESCRIPTION .

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    ABS B10DA:51 PATS Target Identifier: Not Programmed Sets when the target identifier sent from the BCM does not match the target identifier programmed in the ABS module.

    Possible Sources 

    • Network communication concern
    • BCM programming error
    • ABS module programming error

    Visual Inspection and Pre-checks 

    • Check the vehicle repair history and determine if a new BCM or ABS module has been installed. If a new module has been installed, verify it has been programmed correctly and verify the PATS programming procedure has been carried out.
