Modules connected to the mid speed GMLAN serial data circuits monitor for serial data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information and commands are exchanged among the modules. The modules have prerecorded information about what messages are needed to be exchanged on the serial data circuits, for each virtual network. The messages are supervised and also, some periodic messages are used by the receiver module as an availability indication of the transmitter module. Each message contains the identification number of the transmitter module.
• | The system voltage is between 9-16 volts. |
• | The vehicle power mode requires serial data communication to occur. |
A supervised periodic message that includes the transmitter module availability has not been received.
The module uses a default value for the missing parameters.
• | A current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present. |
• | A history DTC clears when the module ignition cycle counter reaches the reset threshold of 50, without a repeat of the malfunction. |
• | Use Data Link References to determine if the module uses mid speed GMLAN serial data communications |
• | Some modules may not have internal protection for specific voltage outputs and may open a battery positive voltage or ignition voltage source fuse. If a voltage input fuse is open and no short is found in that circuit, ensure that no module output voltage circuit is shorted to ground before replacing the module. |
• | An open fuse located on the radio near the power connector would cause the radio to not communicate with other modules. |
Data Link Communications Description and Operation
Control Module References for scan tool information
Note: Use the schematic to identify the following:
• Control modules the vehicle is equipped with • Control module locations on the mid speed GMLAN serial data circuit • The control modules B+, ignition, ground, communication enable and serial data circuit terminals
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit fuse is open, test the control circuits for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the radio. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit fuse is open, test the control circuits for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the radio. |
• | Radio connector terminal 9 and DLC terminal 3 |
• | Radio connector terminal 10 and DLC terminal 11 |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for an open/high resistance between the radio and a module setting the DTC. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
