DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES - U110C-NO FUEL LEVEL BUS MESSAGE
| TEST | ACTION | APPLICABILITY |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
NOTE:
If a fuel level circuit or performance DTC is set along with P1681, diagnose the circuit/performance DTC before continuing. Turn the ignition on.With the DRBIII®, erase DTCs.Start the engine on and off several times. Leave the engine running for at least 20 second each time.With the DRBIII®, read DTCs.Does the DTC reset?Yes --> Go To 2No --> Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION .Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 . |
All |
| 2 | Ignition on, engine not running. With the DRBIII®, attempt to communicate with the BCM. Can communication be established with the BCM? Yes --> Go To 3 No --> Refer to the COMMUNICATION CATEGORY and perform the appropriate symptom related to no communication with BCM. Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 . |
