Voltage is over 9 V but under 16 V

No bus communication.

Checking the wiring harness
Move the wiring harness at several spots and in several directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits. Check switches, connectors and crimp connections for oxidation, retracted pins and pin clamping force.

Diagnostic help
In order to read DTC from Trionic TCM, communication with CIM is required. If the DTC is stored and read with the diagnostic instrument, it indicates intermittent bus-lead fault.
