Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information BCM-U030000
Condition
The control modules communicate with each other for exchange of information in a network via a standardized serial communication procedure - CAN (Controller Area Network). The Central electronic module (CEM) regularly transmits messages on the CAN network. These messages contain information about which signal configuration ID applies to the vehicle. The control modules on the CAN network have the same signal configuration ID so that they can communicate with each other.
The control module compares its configuration ID with the signal configuration transmitted on the control area network (CAN) by the central electronic module (CEM).
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the control module detects that:
- The control module's configuration ID differ from the ID that the Central electronic module (CEM) transmits.
The control module's test for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) starts in the event of:
- Starting the control module's CAN communication.
Note! The control module can only detect the fault once the test has been started and the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored when the conditions are met.
Substitute value
- Control module shuts itself off ("bus-off").
Note! When the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored, the control module responds to the diagnostic commands.
- ABS blocked.
- Stability control (SC) blocked.
- Traction control (TC) blocked.
- Active yaw control (AYC) is blocked.
Hint: Brake system, abbreviations Brake System, Abbreviations
Possible source
- Incorrect configuration ID (the control module is not intended for this vehicle, for example it is a used control module with different software/hardware).
- Open-circuit in the CAN cables between the control module and the Central Electronic Module (CEM).
Note! This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is not due to an internal hardware fault in the Brake control module (BCM) and must not be remedied by replacing the control module.
