Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information






Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information PHM-E003

Condition




The control module compares its configuration ID with the signal configuration transmitted on the control area network (CAN) by the central electronic module (CEM). If the configuration IDs do not correspond the fault code is stored. The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is also stored if the communication between the control module and the central electronic module (CEM) is interrupted.

Note! In the event of open-circuit in both the control area network (CAN) cables, it is not possible to communicate with the control module. Therefore it will only be possible to read off the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) if this type of fault is intermittent. When the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored, the control module responds to the diagnostic command, however normal control area network (CAN) communication does not work. ("Expulsion mode")

Substitute value
- None.

Possible source
- Faulty control area network (CAN) configuration ID. (The node is not intended for this car, for example a used control module with different software/hardware.)
- Open-circuit in the control area network (CAN) wiring between the control module and the central electrical module (CEM).

Fault symptom[s]
- The carphone is not working
- The menu system is not working
- The carphone buttons on the steering wheel do not work
- The lighting for the carphone keypad is not working
- Carphone mute on the radio does not function.
