WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Buick Regal. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Use the schematic to determine which control modules are on the BCM communications enable circuit 23, X4.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the most easily accessible control module on the K9 BCM communication enable circuit.
- Ignition ON, retest for current DTCs. DTC U2099 should remain current.
- If the DTC becomes history, replace the control module that was just disconnected.
- With the prior control modules disconnected, repeat steps 1 and 2 for each control module on the circuit except the K9 BCM.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X4 harness connector at the K9 BCM.
- Test for infinite resistance between the serial data communication enable circuit terminal 23 X4 and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the communication enable circuit for a short to ground.
- If all circuits tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
