Diagnostic Aids

2014 Buick Enclave ConvenienceSECTION Diagnostic Aids
  • A control module may have a U-code stored in history that does not require any repairs. Issues with late or corrupted messages between control modules can be temporary with no apparent symptom or complaint; this does not mean the control module is faulty. Do not replace a control module based only on a history U-code.
  • Do not replace a control module reporting a U-code. The U-code identifies which control module needs to be diagnosed for a communication issue.
  • Communication will be available between the master control module and the scan tool if there is a loss of communications with any of the other control modules on the LIN bus network.
  • An open in the LIN bus serial data circuit between the splice pack and a module will only affect that specific module. This type of failure will set a loss of communication DTC for each control module affected and the other control modules will still communicate.
  • Some intermittent communication concerns may be caused by fretting corrosion on the serial data circuit terminals. Inspect all connectors at the control module that set the communication DTC, the control module that the communication DTC was set against and any inline harness connectors between the two control modules. Do not replace a control module based only on fretting corrosion. Refer to bulletin 09-06-03-004 for assistance with the diagnosis and repair of this condition..
