Pinpoint Test U: DTC U0155:00

Information and Entertainment System

Pinpoint Test U: DTC U0155:00

Normal Operation

Several audio system modules receive network messages from the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) via the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN). The following information is included in the messages:

- Date/time data

- Ignition switch position

- Vehicle speed data

- Warning indicator status

As more than one module receives these messages, all modules receiving a particular message can exhibit a symptom if the message is missing.

- DTC U0155:00 (Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster)) Control Module: No Sub Type Information)- set by the Front Control/Display Interface Module (FCDIM), the Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM), or the Global Positioning System Module (GPSM) when network messages are missing from the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) for greater than 5 seconds with the ignition in RUN.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- Communication network concern

- Audio system concern

- IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster)

PINPOINT TEST U : DTC U0155:00

U1 CHECK FOR LOST COMMUNICATION DTCs

- Ignition ON.

- Clear continuous DTCs from all modules.

- Ignition OFF.

- Ignition ON.

- Wait at least 10 seconds.

- Retrieve all continuous DTCs from all modules.

Is DTC U0155:00 set in any audio system module?

Yes
GO to U2.

No
The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to an intermittent fault in the network wiring.

U2 CHECK FOR BATTERY VOLTAGE OUT-OF-RANGE DTCs

- Carry out the self-test for the following modules:
- FCDIM (Front Control/Display Interface Module)

- APIM (Accessory Protocol Interface Module) (if equipped)

- GPSM (Global Positioning System Module) (if equipped)

- IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster)

Are any low or high voltage DTCs recorded in any module?

Yes
For an audio system module, REFER to DTC Charts Accessories and Optional Equipment.

For the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster), REFER to Instrument Panel, Gauges and Warning Indicators.

No
GO to U3.

U3 CHECK FOR DTC U0155:00 SET IN MULTIPLE MODULES

- Review the recorded results from the self-test.

Is DTC U0155:00 set in more than one audio system module?

Yes
GO to U4.

No
If there is an observable symptom, GO to Symptom Chart - General Audio System to diagnose the observed symptom Symptom Chart - General Audio System.

If there is no observable symptom, the system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to high network traffic or an intermittent fault condition.

U4 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) OPERATION

- Ignition OFF.

- Disconnect the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) connector.

- Check for:
- corrosion

- damaged pins

- pushed-out pins


- Connect the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) connector and make sure it seats correctly.

- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

Is the concern still present?

Yes
INSTALL a new IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster). CLEAR all continuous DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

No
The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. CLEAR all continuous DTCs. REPEAT the self-test for the module(s) that set DTC U0155:00.
