General Information

C1612 CAN Time-out TCM

General Information

Component Location





General Description

The HECU sends requirement data, such as torque reduction, the number of fuel cut cylinders, and the ESC control request, to the PCM (ECM & TCM) through CAN bus line. The PCM (ECM) performs the fuel cut function according to a request signal from the HECU and then retards an ignition timing. The PCM (TCM) maintains current gear position during the ESC control period in order not to increase power which causes a Kickdown shift.

DTC Description

The HECU checks the CAN communication lines for the normal ESC control, and sets this code if an TCM message is not received within 500 ms.
