DTC U1288: Gauge Control Module Lost Communication With PARKSR (2017)

DTC (Gauge Control Module)

NOTE:  If you are troubleshooting multiple DTCs, be sure to follow the instructions in B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A - Refer to: Body Electrical Troubleshooting - B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A - Initial Communication and DTC Checks .

1. Problem verification

   -1. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.

   - 2. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode and then the ON mode.

   - 3. Wait for at least 6 seconds.

   - 4. Check for DTCs with the HDS.

   DTC Description	DTC
   U1288 Gauge control module lost communication with PARKSR

   Is DTC U1288 indicated?

   YES 

   Go to step 2.

   NO 

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for loose or poor connections.

2. Determine possible failure area (parking and back-up sensor control unit power and ground, B-CAN line)

   -1. Select B-CAN CONTROL UNITS INFORMATION from the BODY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SELECT menu, and then select CHECK CONNECTED CONTROL UNITS.

   - 2. Check the DETECT/NOT AVAILABLE information of the PARKING SENSOR MODULE

   Is DETECT indicated?

   YES 

   Go to step 7.

   NO 

   Go to step 3.

3. Fuse check

   -1. Check the following fuse.

   Fuse	No. B5 (10 A)
   Location	Under-dash fuse/relay box

   Is the fuse OK?

   YES 

   Go to step 4.

   NO 

   Replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again, repair a short to ground in the No. B5 (10 A) fuse circuit.

4. Open wire check (IG1 METER line)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Disconnect the following connector:

   Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector

   - 3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   - 4. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle ON mode Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector: disconnected
   Test circuit	IG1 METER
   Test point 1	Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector No. 1 (BRN)

   Test point 2

   Body ground

   Is there battery voltage?

   YES 

   Go to step 5.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the wire.

5. Open wire check (GND lines)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	OFF mode Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector: disconnected
   Test circuit	GND
   Test point 1	Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector No. 12 (BLK)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Test circuit	GND
   Test point 1	Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector No. 9 (BLK)
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The GND wires are OK. Go to step 6.

   NO 

   Repair an open or high resistance in the ground wire or poor ground (G603).

6. Open wire check (B-CAN lines)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Disconnect the following connector:

   Gauge control module connector A (32P)

   - 3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode Gauge control module connector A (32P): disconnected Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector: disconnected
   Test circuit	B-CAN_H
   Test point 1	Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector No. 22 (PNK)
   Test point 2	Gauge control module connector A (32P) No. 30 (PNK)

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   An open or poor connection in the B-CAN_L wire between the parking and back-up sensor control unit and the gauge control module.

   NO 

   An open or poor connection in the B-CAN_H wire between the parking and back-up sensor control unit and the gauge control module.

7. Open wire check (B-CAN lines)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Disconnect the following connectors:

   Gauge control module connector A (32P)

   Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector

   - 3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode Gauge control module connector A (32P): disconnected Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector: disconnected
   Test circuit	B-CAN_H
   Test point 1	Parking and back-up sensor control unit 24P connector No. 22 (PNK)
   Test point 2	Gauge control module connector A (32P) No. 30 (PNK)

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   An open or poor connection in the B-CAN_L wire between the parking and back-up sensor control unit and the gauge control module.

   NO 

   An open or poor connection in the B-CAN_H wire between the parking and back-up sensor control unit and the gauge control module.
