Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 GMC Acadia, 2016 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2016 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The serial data is transmitted over a Local Interconnect Network (LIN) single wire network circuit bus between a master control module and other control modules within a particular subsystem. If serial data communication is lost between any of the control modules on the LIN bus network, a no communication code against the non-communicating control module will be set. A master control module is the one that reports the non communication code. Note: a loss of serial data communications DTC does not represent a failure of the master control module that set it.
