Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit Description
Modules connected to the class 2 serial data circuit monitor for serial data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information and commands are exchanged among the modules. When a module receives a message for a critical operating parameter, the module records the identification number of the module which sent the message for State of Health monitoring. A critical operating parameter is one which, when not received, requires that the module use a default value for that parameter. When a module does not associate an identification number with at least one critical parameter within 5 seconds of beginning serial data communication, DTC U1000 is set. When more than one critical parameter does not have an identification number associated with it, the DTC will only be reported once.
The class 2 serial data line on this vehicle is a star configuration. The following modules communicate on the class 2 serial data line:
- The audio amplifier (AMP), w/UQ7 and Y91
- The body control module (BCM)
- The communication interface module (OnStar®), w/UE1
- The digital radio receiver (DRR), w/U2K
- The driver door module (DDM)
- The electronic brake control module (EBCM)
- The generator battery control module (GBCM)
- The HVAC control module
- The hybrid control module (HCM), w/HP2
- The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM)
- The instrument panel cluster (IPC)
- The memory seat module (MSM), w/AN3
- The passenger door module (PDM)
- The powertrain/engine control module (PCM/ECM)
- The radio
- The rear seat audio (RSA) controller, w/UK6
- The rear seat entertainment (RSE) assembly w/U42
- The rear wheel steering control module (RWSCM), w/NYS
- The remote playback device - CD player (CDX), w/U1S
- The transfer case shift control module (TCSCM), w/NP1/NP8
- The transmission control module (TCM), w/M74

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
