DTC U0155: Lost Communication with Gauge Control Module






General Description
The controller area network (CAN) transmits/receives pulsing signals to/from the control modules simultaneously by using two signal lines (CANH and CANL).
When the powertrain control module (PCM) does not receive the signals from the gauge control module via the CAN lines for a set time or more, the PCM detects a malfunction and a DTC is stored.
