Pinpoint Test H: The Odometer Is Inoperative

Normal Operation

The odometer is displayed in the message center Vacuum Fluorescent (VF) display. The Instrument Cluster (IC) receives the odometer rolling count data from the PCM over the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN) communication bus and displays the data in the odometer display area of the message center. If the IC does not receive the vehicle rolling count message from the PCM or the rolling count data is deemed invalid by the IC, the IC sets DTC U0100.

NOTE: If DTC U0100 is set in the IC, other observable symptoms are likely to be an inoperative speedometer, tachometer and temperature gauge.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- PCM
- IC
