TCL

DTC U1100: ECM [M/T] or PCM [A/T] time-out (related to engine)

CAUTION:
^ If DTC U1100 is set in the ABS/TCL -ECU, always diagnose the CAN main bus line. If there is any fault in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect DTC may be set.
^ Whenever the ABS/TCL-ECU is replaced, ensure that the communication circuit is normal.


DTC SET CONDITION
The ABS/TCL-ECU receives engine system-related signals from the ECM[M/T] or PCM[A/T] via CAN bus lines.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST LIKELY CAUSES FOR THESE DTCs ARE TO SET ARE:)
^ Damaged harness or connector.
^ Malfunction of the ECM[M/T].
^ Malfunction of the PCM[A/T].
^ Malfunction of the ABS/TCL-ECU.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:
^ MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
^ MB991824: V.C.I.
^ MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable
^ MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus line.





CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.

(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?
YES: Go to Step 2.
NO: Repair the CAN bus line, refer to Diagnosis. Then go to Step 6.

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic trouble code.





CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.

(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check for MFI system diagnostic trouble code. Refer to MFI Diagnosis - Diagnostic Function - How to Read and Erase Diagnostic Trouble Code. Diagnostic Function
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is any DTC set?
