Circuit Description
Modules connected to the Class 2 data link monitor the link for serial
data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information
(Report messages) and commands (Load messages) are exchanged among the modules.
Also, node alive State Of Health (SOH) messages are transmitted by each module
on the data link about once every two seconds. When the SDM detects no messages
and a low voltage on the Class 2 data link for approximately three seconds,
U1300 is set and the setting of all other communication DTCs are inhibited.
For more detailed information about the data lines, refer to Data Link Connector --
Cell 50.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | Voltage supplied to the SDM is in the normal operating voltage
range (approximately 9-16 volts). |
| • | No class 2 messages are detected by the SDM on the data link. |
| • | The voltage level detected on the data link is low. |
| • | the above conditions are all met simultaneously for three seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The SDM sets DTC U1300.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
The DTC will clear when one of the following conditions is met:
| | The SDM receives a valid Class 2 message or the ignition switch is turned
to the OFF position. |
| | You issue a scan tool CLEAR CODES 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 the Class 2 serial data line. |
| • | An intermittent condition is likely to be caused by a short to
ground on the Class 2 serial data line. |
