DTC U0101:  F-CAN Malfunction (Powertrain Control Module (PCM)-TCM)

General Description 

GHH344314Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

When the information is not sent from the multipurpose camera unit via the F-CAN lines and this condition continues for a specified time or when the information sent from the transmission control module (TCM) is abnormal and this condition continues for a specified cycle, the powertrain control module (PCM) detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.
