Q: What does code P1698 mean?

No CCD Messages Received From PCM. P1698 on a GM vehicle means the Body Control Module (BCM) or another module on the Class 2 serial data bus has not received any messages from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over the Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) bus for a set period. The computer detected a complete loss of communication from the PCM, not a single missed message, which points to a wiring, power, or PCM fault rather than a sensor problem.
