Information on a Falsely Set DTC U2108 in Engine Control Module (ECM)

Subject:Information on a Falsely Set DTC U2108 in Engine Control Module (ECM)

Models:2005 Chevrolet Cobalt
2005 Pontiac Pursuit (Canada Only)
with Non-ABS Brake System (RPO J41)
Built Prior to February, 2005



Technicians may observe DTC U2108 (ECM Lost Communications With ABS/TCS Control System), current or in history, stored in the ECM when the vehicle is connected to the Tech 2®.

This DTC is associated with ABS equipped vehicles. Because the above vehicle is not equipped with ABS, this may cause confusion.

The ECM may falsely set a DTC U2108 in cars not equipped with ABS due to a software condition. A DTC U2108 will NOT illuminate a SES/MIL light. A code clear will only momentarily clear this DTC and will return to a current state almost immediately. No repairs to the vehicle are necessary as a result of a DTC U2108. DO NOT REPLACE THE BCM OR ECM.

If the SES/MIL light is illuminated with a DTC U2108 present, look for additional DTCs causing the condition.
