U0106-LOST COMMUNICATION WITH GLOW PLUG CONTROL MODULE





For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W



Possible Causes
INTERMITTENT DTC
(D509) LIN BUS CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
GLOW PLUG CONTROL MODULE
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)



Diagnostic Test

1. DTC IS ACTIVE

Turn the ignition on.
With a scan tool, View DTCs.
Record all DTC information.

NOTE: If DTC U1008 LIN 1 BUS is active in addition to this DTC, perform the diagnostic procedure for that DTC before continuing with this test.


NOTE: If DTC U1132 GENERATOR COMMUNICATION is active or stored in addition to this DTC, proceed with this diagnostic procedure.


With a scan tool, Clear DTCs.
Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
Monitor the scan tool for at least 2 minutes.
With a scan tool, View DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes


No

2. U1132 GENERATOR COMMUNICATION DTC IS PRESENT

With a scan tool, View DTCs.

Is DTC U1132 GENERATOR COMMUNICATION Active in addition to this DTC?

Yes


No

3. (D509) LIN BUS CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE

Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Generator harness connector.
Disconnect the Glow Plug Module harness connector.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (D509) LIN Bus circuit between the Generator harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (D509) LIN Bus circuit between the Glow Plug Module harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10 ohms for both measurements?

Yes


No

4. (D509) LIN BUS CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE

Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Glow Plug Module harness connector.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the (D509) LIN Bus circuit between the Generator harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10 ohms?

Yes


No

5. GLOW PLUG CONTROL MODULE

Ignition off, engine not running.
Connect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Replace the Glow Plug Module in accordance with the Service Information.
Turn the ignition on.
With a scan tool, Clear DTCs.
Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature.
Monitor the scan tool for at least 2 minutes.
With a scan tool, View DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes


No

6. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Generator and the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.
Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

Were any problems found?

Yes


No
