Stored Lost Communication DTCs
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.
• When Monitored: With the ignition on, battery voltage between 10 and 16 volts, IOD fuse installed and TIPM is configured correctly.
• Set Condition: Bus messages not received for approximately 2 to 5 seconds.
Test Step 1 - Verify the Diagnostic Trouble Code is Stored
• Stored faults may indicate a customer perceived intermittent condition.
• Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10 and 16 volts before proceeding.
• With the scan tool, read stored DTCs.
Is this DTC stored?
Yes
• Go to Test Step 2
No
• Diagnose the active DTC. Select and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
Test Step 2 - Check the Environmental Data
• With the scan tool, read the loss of communication environmental data.
Does the loss of communication environmental data match any of the service procedures listed in the possible causes or are any of the following stored DTCs present with matching environmental data?
• CAN B or CAN C hardware.
• TIPM configuration.
• VIN missing/mismatch.
• Ignition voltage.
• Electrical system.
• Battery.
Yes
• These DTCs may have been the result of other service procedures performed. Clear DTCs.
No
• Go to Test Step 3
Test Step 3 - Verify Intermittent Lost Communication DTC or Wiring Concerns
• Turn the ignition on.
• With the scan tool, select Network View.
• Select Advanced.
Is there more than one ECU with stored DTCs "logged against" the module and one or more lost communication DTCs stored in the offending module?
Yes
• Verify if the vehicle was recently in for this type of service. Otherwise, visually inspect the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals. Repair as necessary.
No
• Go to Test Step 4
Test Step 4 - Verify Intermittent Lost Communication DTC - Offending Module
• Turn the ignition on.
• With the scan tool, select Network View.
• Select Advanced.
Is there more than one ECU with stored DTCs "logged against" the module and NO lost communication DTCs stored in the offending module?
Yes
• Check for TSBs related to the offending module.
No
• Go to Test Step 5
Test Step 5 - Verify Intermittent Lost Communication DTC - Reporting Module
• Turn the ignition on.
• With the scan tool, select Network View.
• Select Advanced.
Is there ONLY one ECU with stored DTCs "logged against" the module?
Yes
• Check for TSBs related to the module that set the DTC.
No
• Verify if the vehicle was recently in for this type of service. Otherwise, visually inspect the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals. Repair as necessary.
