The DIC message may be the result of a poor connection of the Theft Deterrent Sensor in the overhead console (Fig. 9) or a self-test in the inclination sensor that may fail due to a mismatch of data.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14874\" src=\"https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/F09-theft-2-C.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/F09-theft-2-C.jpg 740w, https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/F09-theft-2-C-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/F09-theft-2-C-85x55.jpg 85w, https:\/\/gm-techlink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/F09-theft-2-C-200x130.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><strong>Fig. 9<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The intrusion sensor in the overhead console uses two ultrasonic sensors to detect any motion inside the vehicle.
