2000 Cruiser with immobilizer bypass mod installed approx 3 months ago. The light came on this morning after my brother pulled the battery to jump another car.

Where do I check first? Is this related to the bypass? Code won’t clear with TechStream.

Anyone have any luck with this? I’m having the same issue.
 
Same issue with p1600 here. Any ideas as I search?
 
Check out DI-279 and DI-280 of the manual. It goes through the necessary voltage checks at the ecm.
You should be getting a constant batt voltage with key out/off. You'll want to back probe the terminal while connected to the ecm.
I believe it's connector/pin E(9)-1.
-Voltage ok (9-14v) = bad ecm
-Voltage ng = efi 20 amp circuit short/fault

A bit of a pain to meter since they didn't leave a lot of wiggle room with the harness while connected to the ecm, and you'll need a small gauge pin to fit in the backside of the connector.
