DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition SOBDMC U0155:00 Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Control Module: No Sub Type Information This DTC sets when messages are missing from the IPC. Possible Sources
- Communications network concern
- IPC
- AY1 CARRY OUT A VEHICLE INSPECTION AND VERIFY THE SELF-TEST PROCEDURENOTE: If the self-test or communication concern occurred after a failed or aborted reprogram, the module may be blank. Attempt to reprogram the module again before continuing with this pinpoint test.
- Visually inspect the following for obvious signs of electrical damage:
- harness wiring
- electrical connections
- Verify the correct procedure was used to activate the self-test for the scan tool. Refer to SCAN TOOL SETUP AND FUNCTIONALITY .
Was the correct self-test procedure used?
Yes GO to AY2 No Refer to SCAN TOOL SETUP AND FUNCTIONALITY . - Visually inspect the following for obvious signs of electrical damage:
- AY2 CARRY OUT THE NETWORK TEST
- Note:
When using FDRS, the scan tool attempts to communicate with the PCM first. After establishing communication with the PCM, the scan tool then attempts to communicate with all modules on the vehicle. If an FDRS session cannot be established, FDRS may state no communication can be established with the PCM:
- Choose No when the scan tool prompts whether or not to retry communication.
- Enter a PCM part number, tear tag or calibration number to identify the vehicle and start a session. The PCM part number and 4- character tear tag are located on the PCM.
- Ignition ON.
Do all modules indicate pass?
Yes GO to AY3 No GO to AY4 - Note:
When using FDRS, the scan tool attempts to communicate with the PCM first. After establishing communication with the PCM, the scan tool then attempts to communicate with all modules on the vehicle. If an FDRS session cannot be established, FDRS may state no communication can be established with the PCM:
- AY3 CHECK FOR AN IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER) CONCERN
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the IPC self-test.
- Check for any other IPC related symptoms.
Is a concern present?
Yes REFER to: Instrumentation, Message Center and Warning Chimes . No The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. Address the root cause of any connector or pin issues. - AY4 INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) SELF-TEST
- Confirm the Inverter System Controller (ISC) was the only module to fail.
Was the Inverter System Controller (ISC) the only module to fail?
Yes GO to AY5 No DIAGNOSE the network concern. REFER to: Communications Network . - AY5 CHECK THE INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) B+ CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect Inverter System Controller (ISC) C1458A.
- Ignition ON.
Is the voltage greater than 10.5 volts?
Yes GO to AY6 No REPAIR the circuit. - AY6 CHECK THE INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) VPWR CIRCUITS FOR VOLTAGE
- Ignition OFF.
- Connect a 5A fused jumper between:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C1458A-K3 Ground
- Ignition ON.
- Measure and record:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C1458A-L2 Ground C1458A-M2 Ground
Are the voltages greater than 10.5 volts?
Yes GO to AY7 No REPAIR the circuit. - AY7 CHECK THE INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) GROUND CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN
- Ignition OFF.
- Measure and record:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C1458A-L4 Ground C1458A-M4 Ground
Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
Yes DIAGNOSE the network concern. REFER to: Communications Network . No REPAIR the open circuit.
