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. When a module receives a message for a critical operating parameter, the module records the identification number of the module which sent the message for State of Health monitoring. A critical operating parameter is one which, when not received, requires that the module use a default value for that parameter. When a module does not associate an identification number with at least one critical parameter within about five seconds of beginning serial data communication, DTC U1000 is set. When more than one critical parameter does not have an identification number associated with it, the DTC will only be reported once.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | Voltage supplied to the module is in the normal operating voltage range (approximately 9-16 volts). |
| • | Diagnostic trouble codes U1300 and U1301 do not have a current status. |
| • | The vehicle power mode (ignition switch position) requires serial data communication to occur. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
At least one critical operating parameter has not been associated with an identification number within about five seconds after beginning serial data communication.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The module uses a default value for the missing parameter.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current U1000 will clear when all critical operating parameters for the module have been associated with an identification number or at the end of the current ignition cycle. |
| • | A history U1000 will clear upon receipt of a scan tool Clear DTCs command. |
Diagnostic Aids
When a malfunction (such as a blown fuse to a module) occurs while modules are communicating, a Lost Communication DTC is set current. When the modules stop communicating (ignition is turned off) the current Lost Communication DTC is cleared but the history DTC remains. When the modules begin to communicate again, the module with the blown fuse will not be learned by the other modules so U1000 is set current by the other modules. If the malfunction occurs when the modules are not communicating, only U1000 is set.
Test Description
-
A Lost Communication with 1XXX DTC with a history status may indicate the cause of U1000.
-
The module(s) which is not communicating is the likely cause of U1000 being set.
-
The module which was not communicating due to a poor connection to the class 2 serial data circuit may have set Lost Communication with 1XXX DTCs for those modules that it was monitoring.
-
The modules which can communicate indicate the module which cannot communicate. You must clear the DTC from these modules to avoid future misdiagnosis.
-
If all modules are communicating, the module which set U1000 may have done so due to some other condition.
-
The module which set U1000 is the likely cause of the malfunction.
