Fault-tracing
Checking components and wiring
- Ignition off
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) indicates that communication between the Engine control module (ECM) and/or radiator temperature sensor is not working. This may be due to a fault in the signal cable between the units or a damaged communication unit in any or both control modules. Check if there is another LIN-related diagnostic trouble code stored.
Check the connectors. Check for loose connections. Check for contact resistance. Check for oxidation.
Check the signal cable for open circuit, short circuit to ground and short circuit to supply voltage.
Remedy as necessary.
