DTC P1A09 Chevrolet

Inter-Device Dedicated Bus Malfunction

Inter-Device Dedicated Bus Malfunction

Description

The microprocessor runs the program to detect an internal fault during module power up and every 10 seconds thereafter until the module re-enters the sleep mode.

Cause and Solution

The diagnostic procedure used for DTC U1500 in OnStar® systems with single module generations of OnStar® differ greatly from previous generations with 2 modules. While these older generations denoted a failure of the 3-wire bus between the modules by setting a U1500, single module OnStar® systems use this DTC to denote an internal module failure. The determination of whether a one or 2-module generation of OnStar® is used should be confirmed. Refer to OnStar Description and Operation . This DTC may be stored as a history DTC without affecting the operation of the module. If stored only as a history DTC and not retrieved as a current DTC, do not replace the VCIM. If this DTC is retrieved as both a current and history DTC, replace the VCIM.
