Circuit Description
Modules connected to the Class 2 serial data circuit monitor for serial
data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information
and commands are exchanged among the modules. In addition to this, Node Alive
(State of Health) messages are transmitted by each module on the Class 2
serial data circuit about once every two seconds. When the body control module
(BCM) and radio receiver detects no messages and a low voltage on the Class
2 serial data circuit for approximately three seconds, U1300 is set and the
setting of all other communication DTCs is inhibited.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | Voltage supplied to the modules are in the normal operating voltage
range (approximately 9-16 volts). |
| • | No valid Class 2 messages are detected on the Class 2 serial data
circuit. |
| • | The voltage level detected on the Class 2 serial data circuit
is low. |
| • | The above conditions are met for approximately three seconds. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current U1300 will clear when a valid Class 2 message is detected
on the Class 2 serial data circuit or at the end of the current ignition cycle. |
| • | A history U1300 will clear upon receipt of a scan tool CLEAR DTCs
command. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | This DTC cannot be retrieved with a current status. Diagnosis
of a current U1300 is accomplished via the symptom, Scan Tool Will Not Communicate
With Class 2 Data Line. |
| • | An intermittent condition is likely to be caused by a short to
ground on the Class 2 serial data circuit. |
| • | Use the Scan Tool Will Not Communicate With Class 2 Data Line
procedure to isolate an intermittent condition. |
