Monitor the appropriate PID to validate that an error is present. Refer to Diagnostic Parameters Identification (PID) Chart . Clear all the DTCs. Refer to the Introduction - Gasoline Engines article.
P2544 PCM Torque management request input signal A. Data received from the PCM or engine components are not correct for the vehicle operating conditions. Incorrect engine torque calculation may result. Transmission may enable limp-home strategies or increase pressures. Engine components and PCM may or may not set additional DTCs. P2544, fuel monitor error, electronic throttle control (ETC) sensor failure and mass air flow (MAF) sensor failures may be present. MIL may illuminate. Refer to the Introduction - Gasoline Engines article.
P2763 TCC TCC solenoid signal circuit shorted to ground. Circuit high. TCC solenoid circuit fails to provide voltage drop across solenoid. Circuit shorted to power.
  • No TCC engagements
  • May turn on MIL
  • No adaptive learning strategy
Monitor the appropriate PID to validate that an error is present. Refer to Diagnostic Parameters Identification (PID) Chart . Clear all DTCs. Test the system for normal operation. If the DTC returns, install a new mechatronics unit. After installing the new mechatronics unit, it must be reflashed to the latest level calibration.
P2764 TCC TCC solenoid circuit shorted to power. Circuit low. TCC solenoid circuit fails to provide voltage drop across solenoid.
  • No TCC engagements
  • May turn on MIL
  • No adaptive learning strategy
Monitor the appropriate PID to validate that an error is present. Refer to Diagnostic Parameters Identification (PID) Chart . Clear all DTCs. Test the system for normal operation. If the DTC returns, install a new mechatronics unit. After installing the new mechatronics unit, it must be reflashed to the latest level calibration.
U0073 CAN CAN communication link error. CAN communication bus OFF, short circuit CAN high to CAN low. May turn on MIL Refer to Introduction - Gasoline Engines articlea .
U0155 CAN TCM communication link error. CAN link error detected by TCM and instrument panel (IP).
  • No communication with instrument panel cluster (IPC).
  • May turn on MIL
Refer to Introduction - Gasoline Engines articlea .
U0100 CAN TCM communication link error. CAN link error detected by PCM, between TCM and ECM.
  • Mechanical limp-home mode in 3rd gear
  • Max line pressure
  • No adaptive learning strategy
  • May turn on MIL
Refer to Introduction - Gasoline Engines articlea .
U0121 CAN TCM communication link error. PCM/TCM have detected an error in the CAN wheel RPM information from the ABS system. - Refer to Introduction - Gasoline Engines articlea .
U0140 PCM/ABS/Body Control Module (BCM) CAN timeout of PCM, ABS or BCM. TCM received incorrect information from other modules due to CAN timeout from PCM, ABS or BCM. May turn on MIL or transmission control indicator lamp (TCIL) Clear all DTCs. For PCM, ABS or BCM systems. Refer to the Introduction - Gasoline Engines article.
U0401 PCM/TCM Invalid data received from the PCM or engine components. Data received from the PCM or engine components is not correct for the vehicle operating conditions. Transmission may enable limp-home strategies or increase pressures. Engine components and PCM may or may not set additional DTCs. P2544, fuel monitor error, ETC sensor failure and MAF sensor failures may be present. MIL may illuminate. Refer to the Introduction - Gasoline Engines article.
