Check as follows:
NOTE: This fault code may be caused by erratic data or the Controller Area Network (CAN) propriety data link
has failed between the Motor Control Module (MCM) and the Common Powertrain Controller (CPC).
1. Are there any battery voltage faults (any SPN 168/FMI faults)?
a. Yes; troubleshoot battery voltage faults first.
b. No; Go to step 2.
2. Has the Motor Control Module (MCM), or Common Powertrain Controller (CPC) been recently programmed?
a. Yes; clear the fault codes. If faults do not become active, release the vehicle. If faults become active, Go to step
3.
b. No; Go to step 3.
NOTICE: MCM, and CPC communicate on the same CAN line. If water penetrates any connector, it can short the
CAN line and prevent communications.
3. Turn ignition OFF.
4. Disconnect MCM 21-pin connector.
5. Inspect the Motor Control Module (MCM) 21pin connector for corroded, unseated (pushed out) or damaged pins, bent
or spread pins; inspect the connector seal for damage (signs of water or oil intrusion). Is damage or contamination
present?
a. Yes; repair as necessary.
b. No; Go to step 6.

6. Measure the resistance between pin 19 of the the MCM 21-pin harness connector and battery ground.
a. If the resistance is greater than 10K , Go to step 7.
b. If the resistance is less than 10K , repair the wire short to ground between MCM 21-pin connector pin 19.
Refer to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) literature for schematic information. Verify repairs.
7. Measure the resistance between pin 13 of the MCM 21-pin harness connector and battery ground.
a. If the resistance is greater than 10K , Go to step 8.
b. If the resistance is less than 10K , repair the wire short to ground between pin 13 of the MCM 21-pin
connector. Refer to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) literature for schematic information. Verify
repairs.
8. Disconnect the CPC electrical harness connector #4.
9. Inspect the CPC connector for corroded, unseated (pushed out) or damaged pins, bent or spread pins; inspect the
connector seal for damage (signs of water or oil intrusion). Is damage or contamination present?
a. Yes; repair as necessary. Verify repairs.
b. No; Go to step 10.
10. Check CPC internal terminating resistor by measuring and recording the resistance across pins 1 and 3 of the CPC
electrical connector cavity #4.

a. If the resistance is 110 to 130 , Go to step 11.

b. If the resistance is not between 110 to 130 , replace the CPC. Verify repairs.
11. Measure the resistance between pins 1 and 3 of the CPC harness connector #4.
a. If the resistance is greater than 10K , Go to step 12.
b. If the resistance is less than 10K , repair the shorted harness wires between pins 1 and pin 3 of the CPC
connector #4. Refer to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) literature for schematic information. Verify
repairs.

12. Measure the resistance between pin 1 of the CPC harness connector #4 and pin 19 of the MCM 21-pin harness
connector.
a. If the resistance is less than 5 , Go to step 13.
b. If the resistance is greater than 5 , repair the wire between pin 1 of the CPC harness connector #4 and pin 19 of
the MCM 21-pin harness connector. Refer to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) literature for schematic
information. Verify repairs.
13. Measure the resistance between pin 3 of the CPC harness connector #4 and pin 13 of the MCM 21-pin harness
connector.
a. If the resistance is less than 5 , install a test MCM and retest. If code does not return, replace MCM. Verify
repairs.
b. If the resistance is greater than 5 , repair the wire between pin 3 of the CPC harness connector #4 and pin 13 of
the MCM 21-pin harness connector. Refer to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) literature for schematic
information. Verify repairs.
