- Low Speed CAN Communication Bus Performance
Circuit/System Description
Modules connected to the GMLAN serial data circuits monitor for serial data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating
information and commands are exchanged among the modules. The modules have programmed information about what messages are needed to be
exchanged on the serial data circuits. The messages are also supervised and some periodic messages are used by the receiver module as an
availability indication of the transmitter module.
DTC U0020 will set when fewer modules are detected on the bus before the modules can learn the other modules IDs. If the communication bus is
opened, or if the modules power supply is lost when the vehicle is in the OFF power mode, and then placed in the RUN power mode, U0020 will
set in specific modules.
Conditions for Running the DTCs
* Voltage at the modules is in the normal operating voltage range.
* The vehicle power mode requires serial data communication to occur.
* The DTC U2100 does not have a current status.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
A supervised periodic message that includes the transmitter module availability has not been received.
Action Taken When the DTCs 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.
Circuit/System Verification
Diagnosis of this DTC is accomplished via the symptom, DTC U0100-U0299 (See: U Code Charts/U0100).
U0073
DTC U0073 or U2100
Diagnostic Instructions
* Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnostic System
Check - Vehicle) prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
* Review Strategy Based Diagnosis (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Strategy Based Diagnosis) for an
overview of the diagnostic approach.
* Diagnostic Procedure Instructions (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnostic Procedure
Instructions) provides an overview of each diagnostic category.
