Several modules receive network messages from the Instrument Cluster (IC) via the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN). The following information is included in the messages:
- Transmission gear selected
- Vehicle speed
- Parking aid enable command
As more than one module receives these messages, all modules receiving a particular message should exhibit a symptom if the message is missing.
- DTC U0155 (Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IC ) Control Panel) - set by the Parking Aid Module (PAM) when network messages are missing from the IC for greater than 5 seconds with the ignition in RUN.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Module communication
- PAM
- IC
