U0252-LOST COMMUNICATION WITH TRAILER LIGHTING MODULE
For a complete wiring diagram Consult Diagrams/Electrical.
- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.
Battery voltage between 10 and 16 volts.
IOD fuse installed.
FCM is configured correctly.
- Set Condition:
Bus messages not received from the Trailer Lighting Module (TM) for approximately 2 to 5 seconds.
Diagnostic Test
1. VERIFY DTC IS ACTIVE
NOTE: Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10 and 16 volts before proceeding.
With the scan tool, read active DTC's.
Is this DTC active?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Refer to the Stored Lost Communication test procedure Communications - Verbose Codes .
2. CHECK FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIVE DTC'S
With the scan tool, read active DTC's from all modules.
NOTE: Check for FCM configuration, CAN B or C hardware electrical, VIN Missing/Mismatch, battery or ignition related DTC's.
Does the scan tool display any active DTC's to the conditions listed above?
Yes
- Diagnose and repair the DTC.
No
- Go To 3
3. VERIFY THAT THE TM IS ACTIVE ON THE BUS
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, select Network View and select Advanced.
NOTE: A red X will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.
Verify that the TM is active on the bus.
Is the TM active on the bus?
Yes
- Replace and program the Front Control Module.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To 4
4. (A922) (A907) FUSED B(+) CIRCUITS OPEN
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Trailer Lighting Module C2 harness connector.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A922) and (A907) Fused B(+) circuits.
Does the test light illuminate brightly on each circuit?
Yes
- Go To 5
No
- Repair the (A922) or (A907) Fused B(+) circuit for an open or short.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.Body Verification Test.
5. (F941) FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN-START) CIRCUIT OPEN
Turn the ignition on.
Disconnect the Trailer Lighting Module C4 harness connector.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F941) Fused Ignition Switch Output circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 6
No
- Repair the (F941) Fused Ignition Switch Output circuit for an open or short.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.Body Verification Test.
6. (Z923) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z923) ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 7
No
- Repair the (Z923) ground circuit for an open.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.Body Verification Test.
7. (D55) AND (D54) CAN B BUS CIRCUITS OPEN
NOTE: One open circuit will not cause this condition.
Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.
Is there any voltage present on either circuit?
Yes
- Replace the Trailer Lighting Module.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.Body Verification Test.
No
- Repair the (D55) and (D54) CAN B Bus circuits for an open. Inspect the connector for damage.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.Body Verification Test.
