DTC Advanced Diagnostics: U0104 (2.0L Engine, PGM-FI System) (2024 2025)
DTC U0104 : PF-CAN Malfunction (Powertrain Control Module (PCM)-Driving Support System Control Unit)
General Description
The controller area network (CAN) transmits/receives pulsing signals to/from the control modules simultaneously by using two signal lines (F-CAN_ H and F-CAN_L). When the powertrain control module (PCM) does not receive the signals from the multipurpose camera unit via the CAN lines for a certain period of time or receives incorrect message frames, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.

Malfunction Threshold
Any of the conditions is met for at least 1 second:
- Checksum error
The value of checksum for the received frame is different from the calculated checksum.
- Message counter error
-
- -
The two consecutive values of the message counter are equal at least once.
- -
The difference between two consecutive values of the message counter is greater than 255.
- -
- Timeout error
The CAN message frame is not received.

Diagnosis Details
Conditions for setting the DTC
When a malfunction is detected, a Pending DTC, a Confirmed DTC, the freeze data, and the on-board snapshot are stored in the PCM memory. The MIL does not come on.
Conditions for clearing the DTC
The Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, the freeze data, and the on-board snapshot can be cleared with the scan tool clear command.
