: ECM Communication Loss with Network Module
Severity: Critical

Common Causes

: ECM Communication Loss with Network Module
Common causes:
– Faulty network module
– Poor electrical connection between ECM and network module
– Wiring issues between ECM and network module

 

Common Misdiagnosis

ECM Communication Loss with Network Module

  • Common Misdiagnosis: Replacing the ECM without verifying network wiring integrity or module power/ground connections.

 

Common Diagnostic Steps

ECM Communication Loss with Network Module

  1. Check for any other stored codes that might be related to communication issues.
  2. Inspect the wiring and connectors between the ECM and the network module for damage or corrosion.
  3. Verify that all ground connections are secure and free of rust or dirt.
  4. Test the battery voltage to ensure it is within specification, as low voltage can affect communication.
  5. Use a scan tool to check for proper operation of the network module and ECM.
  6. If possible, perform a continuity test on the CAN bus lines to ensure there are no breaks in the circuit.
  7. Update or reprogram the ECM software if an update is available from the manufacturer.
  8. If all else fails, consider replacing either the ECM or network module after confirming they are defective through testing.
