Pinpoint Test G: DTC U0140

Normal Operation

Several modules receive network messages from the Smart Junction Box (SJB) via the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN). The following information is included in the messages:

- Ignition switch position

All modules receiving a particular message should exhibit a symptom if the message is missing.

- DTC U0140 (Lost Communication With Body Control Module (GEM (Generic Electronic Module)))- set by the Parking Aid Module (PAM) when network messages are missing from the SJB (Smart Junction Box) for greater than 5 seconds with the ignition in RUN.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- Module communication

- PAM (Parking Aid Module)

- SJB (Smart Junction Box)

PINPOINT TEST G : DTC U0140

G1 VERIFY THE CUSTOMER CONCERN

- Ignition ON.

- Verify that there is an observable symptom present.

Is an observable symptom present?

No
REFER to Information Bus.

G3 RECHECK THE PAM (Parking Aid Module) DTCs

NOTE: If new modules were installed prior to the DTC being set, the module configuration may be incorrectly set during Programmable Module Installation (PMI) or the PMI (Programmable Module Installation) may not have been carried out.

- Clear the DTCs. Repeat the PAM (Parking Aid Module) self-test.

Is DTC U0140 still present?

Yes
GO to G4.

No
The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to high network traffic.

G4 CHECK FOR DTC U0140 SET IN OTHER MODULES

- Clear all DTCs.

- Ignition OFF.

- Ignition ON.

- Wait 10 seconds.

- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self-Test.

- Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.

Is DTC U0140 set in any module?

Yes
INSTALL a new SJB (Smart Junction Box). TEST the system for normal operation.

No
INSTALL a new PAM (Parking Aid Module). REFER to Parking Aid Module (PAM) . TEST the system for normal operation.
