B1004

DTC B1004

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The module contains a data storage area which can save pertinent data when the ignition is turned OFF. The keep alive memory (KAM) data is lost if battery power is removed from the module. The KAM area is an integral part of the microprocessor and cannot be serviced separately.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
The module microprocessor must be active/awake.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
This DTC indicates the KAM in the module has been reset. It is a normal occurrence when battery positive voltage or ground is removed from the module, such as a battery disconnect.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
The microprocessor reverts back to the base programmed critical operating data until new data is learned and stored in KAM.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
- A current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present.
- A history DTC clears when the module ignition cycle counter reaches the reset threshold, without a repeat of the malfunction.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
- Interruptions to either the battery positive voltage circuit or the module ground circuit will cause the DTC to set.
- This DTC may be stored as a history DTC with out affecting the operation of the module. If stored only as a history DTC and not retrieved as a current DTC, do not replace the module.
- This DTC will never set as current during testing unless there is a non-recoverable memory failure.
- If this DTC is retrieved as a current and history DTC, replace the module.
