DIM-E003

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information DIM-E003

Condition
The driver information module (DIM) 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 an 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 commands. However, normal control area network (CAN) communication does not work ("Expulsion mode").

Substitute value
- None.

Possible source
- Incorrect control area network (CAN) configuration ID (the control module is not intended for this car, for example it is 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 driver information module (DIM) panel does not function if there is no CAN communication.
