Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Pontiac G8. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The body control module (BCM) performs a self test and vehicle identification number (VIN) verification. This DTC indicates that a VIN is not programmed or that the BCM has an internal fault. The internal fault detection is handled inside the control module, no external circuits are involved.
