SRX AWD V6-3.0L (2010)
-
A control module on the data communication circuit was disconnected while the communication circuit is awake.
-
Power to one or more modules was interrupted during diagnosis
-
A low battery condition was present, so some control modules stop communicating when battery voltage drops below a certain threshold.
-
Battery power was restored to the vehicle and control modules on the communication circuit did not all re-initialize at the same time.
-
If a loss-of-communication U-code appears in history for no apparent reason, it is most likely associated with one of the scenarios above.
These are all temporary conditions and should never be interpreted as an intermittent fault, causing you to replace a part.
*
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 may be available between the body control module (BCM) and the scan tool with the low speed GMLAN serial data system
inoperative. This condition is due to the BCM using both the high and low speed GMLAN systems.
*
An open in the low speed GMLAN 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 module effected, and the other modules will still communicate.
*
An open in the data link connector (DLC) ground circuit terminal 5 will allow the scan tool to operate but not communicate with the vehicle.
*
The engine may not start when there is a total malfunction of the low speed GMLAN serial data circuit.
*
Technicians may find various Local Area Network (LAN) communication Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) and no low speed LAN
communications with the scan tool.
These conditions may be caused by the installation of an aftermarket navigation radio module (see bulletins). Some customers may comment of
one or more of the following concerns:
-
Vehicle will not crank
-
Vehicle cranks but will not start
-
Vehicle stability enhancement system warning lights and messages
-
PRNDL gear indicator position errors

Note: Use the schematic to identify the following:
*
Control modules the vehicle is equipped with
*
Control module and splice pack locations on the low speed GMLAN serial data circuit
*
The low speed GMLAN serial data circuit terminals for each control module, component, or splice pack
1. Attempt to communicate with all control modules on the low speed GMLAN serial data circuit. Refer to Data Link References (See: Initial
Inspection and Diagnostic Overview). Communications should not be available with two or more control modules on the low speed GMLAN
serial data circuit.
‹› If only one control module is not communicating, diagnose that control module only. Refer to DTC U0100-U02FF (See: Testing and
Inspection/Diagnostic Trouble Code Tests and Associated Procedures/U Code Charts/U0100).
‹› If one or more control modules are communicating but not all, refer to Testing the Serial Data Circuit for an Open/High Resistance.
2. Disconnect the scan tool from the DLC. The following tests will be done at the DLC connector.
3. All access doors closed, ignition OFF for 60 seconds, test for less than 10 ohm between the ground circuit terminal 5 and ground.
