Diagnostic Fault Information





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. In addition to this, Node Alive messages are transmitted by each module on the class 2 serial data circuit about once every 2 seconds. When the module detects high or low voltage on the class 2 serial data circuit for approximately 3 seconds, the setting of all other class 2 serial communication DTCs is inhibited and a DTC will set.

Conditions for Running the DTCs

* Voltage supplied to the module is in the normal operating voltage range.
* The vehicle power mode requires serial data communication to occur.

Conditions for Setting the DTCs

The class 2 serial data circuit is shorted high or low for approximately 3 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The module uses a default value for the missing parameter.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* 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, without a repeat of the malfunction.

Diagnostic Aids

* These DTCs cannot be retrieved with a current status. Diagnosis of current DTCs is accomplished via the symptom Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device (Scan Tool Does Not Communicate with Class 2 Device).
* An intermittent condition is likely to be caused by a short on the class 2 serial data circuit.
