Pinpoint Test U: U0258:87 Or U1A00:00
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Refer to REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY AND ALARM
for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The RTM communicates with the BCM over a LIN-based circuit and, when the network is awake, over the CAN.
DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition BCM U0258:87 Lost Communication With Radio Transceiver: Missing Message Sets when the BCM detects a communication fault with the RTM over the LIN-based circuit. RTM U1A00:00 Private Communication Network: No Sub Type Information Sets when the RTM detects a fault with the LIN-based circuit to the BCM. Possible Sources
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- RTM
- BCM
- U1 CHECK IF THE RTM (RADIO TRANSCEIVER MODULE) AND THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) PASS THE NETWORK TEST
- Ignition ON.
- Using a diagnostic tool, carry out the network test.
Does the RTM and the BCM pass the network test?
Yes GO to U2 No REFER to: ETHERNET MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK . - U2 CHECK THE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Ignition OFF:
- Disconnect RTM C9026.
- Disconnect BCM C2280B.
- Ignition ON:
- Measure:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C9026-2 Ground
Is any voltage present?
Yes REPAIR the circuit. No GO to U3 - U3 CHECK THE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Ignition OFF.
- Measure:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C9026-2 Ground
Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms?
Yes GO to U4 No REPAIR the circuit. - U4 CHECK THE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
Is the resistance less than 3 ohms?
Yes GO to U5 No REPAIR the circuit. - U5 CHECK FOR CORRECT RTM (RADIO TRANSCEIVER MODULE) OPERATION
- Disconnect and inspect the BCM connector.
- Repair:
- corrosion (install new connectors or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - install new terminals pins
- pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
- Reconnect the BCM connector and make sure it seats and latches correctly.
- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
Yes CHECK OASIS for any applicable service articles: TSB, GSB, SSM, or FSA. If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles address this concern, INSTALL a new BCM. REFER to: Body Control Module (BCM) . 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.
