Pinpoint Test A: DTC U0100:00
Body Control Module (BCM)
Pinpoint Test A: DTC U0100:00
Normal Operation
- DTC U0100:00 (Lost Communication With ECM/PCM "A": No Sub Type Information)- sets in the Body Control Module (BCM) if data messages received (vehicle speed) from the PCM are missing for more than 1 second.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Communication network concern
- PCM
- BCM (Body Control Module)
PINPOINT TEST A : DTC U0100:00
A1 VERIFY THE SCAN TOOL CAN COMMUNICATE WITH THE PCM
- Connect the scan tool.
- Check that a vehicle session can be established using the scan tool.
Can a vehicle session be established?
Yes
GO to A2.
No
REFER to Information Bus, The PCM Does Not Respond To The Scan Tool Pinpoint Test A: The PCM Does Not Respond To The Scan Tool.
A2 CHECK THE BCM (Body Control Module) CONTINUOUS MEMORY DTCs
- Ignition ON.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: BCM (Body Control Module) Self-Test.
- Clear the DTCs. Repeat the BCM (Body Control Module) self-test.
Is DTC U0100:00 retrieved again?
Yes
GO to A3.
No
The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to high network traffic or an intermittent fault condition.
A3 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE BCM (Body Control Module) SELF-TEST
- Check for recorded BCM (Body Control Module) DTCs from the self-test.
Is DTC U3003:16 or DTC U3003:17 recorded?
Yes
For DTC U3003:16, GO to Pinpoint Test G. Pinpoint Test G: DTC U3003:16
For DTC U3003:17, GO to Pinpoint Test H. Pinpoint Test H: DTC U3003:17
No
GO to A4.
A4 CHECK FOR DTC U0100, U0100:00 OR U0100:87 SET IN OTHER MODULES
- Ignition ON.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self-Test.
- Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.
Is DTC U0100, U0100:00 or U0100:87 set in any other module?
Yes
INSTALL a new PCM. TEST the system for normal operation.
No
INSTALL a new BCM (Body Control Module). REFER to Body Control Module (BCM) . TEST the system for normal operation.
