U0101

DTC U0101

As vehicles electronically controlled, various control unit is applied to vehicle and several units are controlled based on the signals from the sensors. Therefore sharing signals of sensors and information is required. To meet this requirement, CAN communication type, which is insensible to external noises and whose communication speed is fast, is applied to power train control.Sharing signals from RPM, APS, gear shifting, torque reduction in ESP, ABS and various modules, addtive control is performed.

DTC DESCRIPTION
If there is no message from TCU to ECM/PCM through CAN line over 500 ms, PCU sets DTC U0101.

DTC Detecting Condition:






MONITOR SCANTOOL DATA
1. Connect scantool to Data Link Connector(DLC).
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Monitor the "CAN" parameters on the scantool.
- Check "Transaxle type, Torque control request, etc." at the ECU service data mode.
- Check "TPS, RPM, IDLE STATE, etc." at the TCU service data mode.

4. Are the parameters displayed correctly?

YES - Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor's and/or ECM's connector or was repaired and ECM/PCM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and go to "Verification of vehicle Repair" procedure..

NO - Substitute with a known - good ECM/PCM and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace ECM/PCM and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
1. Connect scan tool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes(DTCs)" mode.
2. Clear the DTCs and Operate the vehicle within DTC Enable conditions in General information.
3. Are any DTCs present ?

YES - Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.

NO - System is performing to specification at this time.
