U1421-IMPLAUSIBLE IGNITION KEY OFF TIME RECEIVED

For complete wiring diagrams refer to Diagrams/Electrical.


- When Monitored:

Ignition on.

- Set Condition:

The fuel volume message the ECM is receiving is implausible. The circuit is continuously monitored. One Trip fault.







Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.


Theory of Operation

The Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) isn't receiving a fuel volume signal over CAN B from the Cluster Module. The TIPM has to send the PCM a fuel volume signal over CAN C. The signal the TIPM sends over CAN C is implausible.
