DTC Descriptor
DTC U1820 00: Lost Communication with Brake System Control Module on Bus BDiagnostic Fault Information
Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Ignition Voltage (circuit 948) | U1820*, U189A in HPCM, U1818 in SDGM | U1820*, U189A in HPCM, U1818 in SDGM | -- | |

* Other modules/DTCs will set with this fault. | ||||
Circuit/System Description
Modules connected to the PTLAN serial data circuits monitor for serial data communications during normal vehicle operation. Operating information and commands are exchanged among the modules. The modules have prerecorded information about what messages are needed to be exchanged on the serial data circuits, for each virtual network. The messages are supervised and also, some periodic messages are used by the receiver module as an availability indication of the transmitter module. Each message contains the identification number of the transmitter module.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The system voltage is between 9-16 volts. |
| • | The vehicle power mode master requires serial data communication to occur for this specific module. |
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
The modules is never signaled, therefore the 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. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Verify the following DTCs are not set in the modules as follows:
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector of the yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ground circuit terminal 6 and B+.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect harness connector X1 of the SDGM.
- Test for less than 1.0 ohm between the SDGM and the yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor on the following circuit terminals.
- If the circuits test normal, replace the SDGM.
| • | SDGM - U1818 |
| • | HPCM - U189A |
| ⇒ | If any listed DTC is present, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle to diagnose that DTC prior to this diagnostic. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
| • | PTLAN + SDGM terminal 14 and yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor terminal 2 |
| • | PTLAN - SDGM terminal 12 and yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor terminal 3 |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance. |
