Pinpoint Test At : U0111

  1. Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    REFER to: Electric Powertrain Control - System Operation and Component Description .

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    SOBDMC U0111:00 Lost Communication With Battery Energy Control Module "A": No Sub Type Information This DTC sets when messages are missing from the BECM

    Possible Sources 

    • Communications network concern
    • BECM

  2. AT1 CARRY OUT A VEHICLE INSPECTION AND VERIFY THE SELF-TEST PROCEDURE

    NOTE: 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

    Was the correct self-test procedure used? 

    Yes  GO to  AT2
    No  Refer to SCAN TOOL SETUP AND FUNCTIONALITY .
  3. AT2 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  AT3
    No  GO to  AT4
  4. AT3 CHECK FOR A BECM (BATTERY ENERGY CONTROL MODULE) CONCERN

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the BECM self-test.

    • Check for any other BECM related symptoms.

    Is a concern present? 

    Yes  DIAGNOSE the BECM concern. REFER to: High Voltage Battery, Mounting and Cables .
    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.
  5. AT4 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  AT5
    No  DIAGNOSE the network concern. REFER to: Communications Network .
  6. AT5 CHECK THE INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) B+ CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect Inverter System Controller (ISC) C1458A.

    • Ignition ON.

    • Measure and record:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C1458A-M1

      Ground

    Is the voltage greater than 10.5 volts? 

    Yes  GO to  AT6
    No  REPAIR the circuit.
  7. AT6 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

    Are the voltages greater than 10.5 volts? 

    Yes  GO to  AT7
    No  REPAIR the circuit.
  8. AT7 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

    Are the resistances less than 5 ohms? 

    Yes  DIAGNOSE the network concern. REFER to: Communications Network .
    No  REPAIR the open circuit.
