* An open between the data link connector (DLC) and the first splice will only effect the communication with the scan tool. The vehicle control modules will still communicate.
1. No communication on any mid speed GMLAN module. 2. No communication on any chassis high speed GMLAN module. 3. An open in only one mid speed or chassis high speed GMLAN serial data circuit may allow degraded communication between the controls modules. |

| Circuit/System Description |
Control modules connected to the mid speed or chassis high speed GMLAN serial data circuits monitor for serial data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information and commands are exchanged among the control modules when the ignition switch is in any position other than OFF. The mid speed or chassis high speed GMLAN serial data bus uses a terminating resistor that is in parallel with the mid speed or chassis high speed GMLAN (+) and (-) circuits.
| Conditions for Running the DTC |
The system voltage is between 9-16 V.
| Conditions for Setting the DTC |
A supervised periodic message that includes the transmitter module availability has not been received.
| Action Taken When the DTC Sets |
Specific subsystems will not function.
| Conditions for Clearing the DTC |
| • |
A current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present.
|
|
| • |
A history DTC clears when the module ignition cycle counter reaches the reset threshold of 50, without a repeat of the malfunction.
|
|
| Diagnostic Aids |
| • |
Use the
Data Link References
to identify the mid speed or chassis high speed GMLAN serial data modules.
|
|
| • |
Some control modules may not have internal protection for specific voltage outputs and may open a battery positive voltage or ignition voltage source fuse. If a voltage input fuse is open and no short is found in that circuit, ensure that no control module output voltage circuit is shorted to ground before replacing the control module.
|
|
| • |
An open in the DLC ground circuit terminal 5 will allow the scan tool to operate to set up the vehicle on the tool and then not communicate with the vehicle. When the scan tool is to the point of communicating with the vehicle, a message on the scan tool will indicate "no CANdi module detected" and will not communicate.

| Circuit/System Verification |
| 1. |
Verify there are no other U code DTCs set.
|
|
| 2. |
If other U code DTCs are set, diagnose them first. Refer to
Control Module U Code List
.
|
|
| 3. |
Refer to
Data Link References
to determine if the control module setting DTC U0074 is on the mid speed or chassis high speed serial data circuits.
|
|
| Circuit/System Testing |
| Note | ||
|
Each control module may need to be disconnected to isolate a circuit fault. Use the schematic to identify the following: |
||
| • |
Control modules the vehicle is equipped with
|
|
| • |
Mid speed or chassis high speed serial data circuit terminating resistors
|
|
| • |
Control module locations on the serial data circuits
|
|
| • |
Each control modules mid speed or chassis high speed serial data circuit terminals
|
|
| 1. |
Attempt to communicate with all control modules on the mid speed or chassis high speed serial data circuit. Refer to
Data Link References
. Communications should not be available with two or more control modules on the mid speed or chassis high speed serial data circuit.
|
|
| 2. |
If only one control module is not communicating, diagnose that control module only. Refer to
DTC U0100-U02FF
.
|
|
| 3. |
Disconnect the scan tool from the DLC. The following tests will be done at the DLC connector.
|
|
| 4. |
All access doors closed, ignition OFF for 60 seconds, test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 5 and ground.
|
|
| 5. |
If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
|
|
| 6. |
Ignition ON, test for less than 3 V between the serial data circuits listed below and ground:
|
|
| • |
Mid speed GMLAN serial data terminal 3
|
| • |
Mid speed GMLAN serial data terminal 11
|
| • |
Chassis high speed GMLAN serial data terminal 12
|
| • |
Chassis high speed GMLAN serial data terminal 13
|
| 7. |
If greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Testing the Serial Data Circuits for a Short to Voltage.
|
|
| 8. |
Ignition OFF for 60 seconds, test for greater than 100 Ω between the serial data circuits listed below and ground:
|
|
| • |
Mid speed GMLAN serial data terminal 3
|
| • |
Mid speed GMLAN serial data terminal 11
|
| • |
Chassis high speed GMLAN serial data terminal 12
|
| • |
Chassis high speed GMLAN serial data terminal 13
|
| 9. |
If not the specified value, test the serial data circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Testing the Serial Data Circuits for a Short to ground.
|
|
| 10. |
Test for 50-70 Ω between the serial data circuits listed below:
|
|
| • |
Mid speed GMLAN serial data circuits terminal 3 and terminal 11
|
| • |
Chassis high speed GMLAN serial data circuits terminal 12 and terminal 13
|
| 11. |
If less than 35 Ω, test for a short between the serial data circuits. Refer to Testing the Serial Data Circuits for a Short between the Circuits.
|
|
| 12. |
If 35-50 Ω there may be a third terminating resistor between the serial data circuits. This can happen if the incorrect control module is installed. Some control modules are available with and without the terminating resistors installed to reduce the need of terminating resistors in the wiring harness.
|
|
| 13. |
If greater than 70 Ω but less than infinite, test the serial data circuit for an open/high resistance. Refer to Testing the Serial Data Circuits for an Open/High Resistance.
|
|
| 14. |
If infinite, test the serial data circuits between the DLC and the first connection to the serial data circuit for an open/high resistance.
|
