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 (State of Health) messages are transmitted by each module
on the class 2 serial data circuit about once every two seconds. When
the module detects no messages and a high voltage on the class 2 serial
data circuit for more than approximately 3 seconds, U1301 is set and
the setting of all other class 2 serial communication DTCs is inhibited.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | Voltage supplied to the module is in the normal operating range
(approximately 9-16 volts). |
| • | The vehicle power mode (ignition switch position) requires serial
data communication to occur. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | No valid messages are detected on the class 2 serial data circuit. |
| • | The voltage level detected on the class 2 serial data circuit
is high. |
| • | The above conditions are met for approximately 3 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The module inhibits the setting of all other class 2 DTCs. |
| • | The module uses default values for all parameters received on
the class 2 serial data circuit. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current U1301 will clear when a valid class 2 message is detected
on the class 2 serial data circuit or at the end of the current ignition cycle. |
| • | A history U1301 will clear after 50 ignition cycles with no repeated
failure. |
