DTC U1088: Loss Of Serial Communications - SDM: Testing
- If multiple class 2 DTCs are set as current (i.e., U1300, U1301, U1088 or U1153), check for an intermittent short to ground or battery in Purple wire between individual control modules. See appropriate wiring diagram in DATA LINK CONNECTORS article in WIRING DIAGRAMS.
- If DTC is current, use a scan tool and attempt to establish communication with SDM. If communication cannot be established, diagnose and repair problem in air bag system. See appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS article. If communication can be established, replace IPC. See INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER (IPC) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Perform IPC DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK .
- If DTC is history, check for intermittent open in Purple wire between individual control modules. See appropriate wiring diagram in DATA LINK CONNECTORS article in WIRING DIAGRAMS.
