Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 16 other vehicles, including the 2018 Lincoln MKZ, 2018 Ford Transit-350 HD, 2018 Ford Transit-350, 2018 Ford Transit-250, and 2018 Ford Transit-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

With the ignition ON, the IPC sends messages to the SASM through the GWM and over the HSCAN 3. If the SASM does not receive these messages within a certain time frame (usually less than 1 second), the SASM sets DTCs.

DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
U0155:00 Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Control Module: No Sub Type Information Sets in continuous memory and on-demand when the SASM detects any of the IPC messages are missing. This can be due to a IPC failure, a circuit failure on the HSCAN or an excessive load on the network.
