Diagnostic Test
- TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, record and erase FCM DTCs.
- Cycle the ignition from on to off 3 times.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read active FCM DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
Yes
- Go to step 2
No
- The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
- ATTEMPT TO ISOLATE THE OPEN CONDITION
- Turn the ignition on.
- Verify that all CAN B Bus modules are communicating with the scan tool.NOTE: A red "X" will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.NOTE: If any module is not communicating, perform the appropriate no response test procedure before proceeding.
- Turn the ignition off.
- Gain access to the Front Control Module C1 harness connector, but do not disconnect.
- Using a fused jumper wire, connect one end to ground and with the other end backprobe the CAN B Bus (-) circuit at the FCM C1 harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool monitor the network status screen and document all modules that display a red "X".
Are there any red "X's" displayed next to the modules?
Yes
- Go to step 3
No
- Check backprobe connection to ground, make sure it is proper. The CAN B Bus open DTC may no longer be active, it may be stored. Check all module connections
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure .
- ATTEMPT TO ISOLATE THE OPEN CONDITION - MULTIPLE RED X'S
- With the scan tool continue monitoring the network status screen.
Are there multiple red "X's" displayed next to the modules?
Yes
- The most likely cause of this condition is an open CAN B Bus (+) circuit between a common CAN B Bus splice and the modules that display the red X next to them. Use SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS will help you determine where open condition exists.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure
No
- Go to step 4
- With the scan tool continue monitoring the network status screen.
- (D55) CAN B BUS (+) CIRCUIT OPEN - SINGLE RED X
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the module that has the red X displayed next to it.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Inspect the connector and terminal for damage, inspect for spread terminals, or push out terminals. If OK, replace the module that displayed the red X next to it in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Repair the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit for an open between the next common splice and the module that has the red X displayed next to it. Use SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS will help you determine where open condition exists.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure .
