DTC Charts

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Ford RV Cutaway, 2008 Ford Econoline, 2008 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2008 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Network DTCs (U-codes) are often a result of intermittent concerns such as faulty wiring or low battery voltage occurrences. Additionally, vehicle service procedures such as module reprogramming will often set network DTCs. Replacing a module to resolve a network DTC is unlikely to resolve the concern. To prevent repeat network DTC concerns, inspect all network wiring, especially connectors. Test the vehicle battery, refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES article.
COMMUNICATION NETWORK DTC CHART

DTC Description Source Action
U0002 High Speed CAN Communication Bus Performance Instrument cluster (IC) The module could not communicate on the network at a point in time. The fault is currently not present. CLEAR the DTC. REPEAT the network test with the scan tool.
U0011 Medium Speed CAN Communication Bus Performance IC The module could not communicate on the network at a point in time. The fault is currently not present. CLEAR the DTC. REPEAT the network test with the scan tool.
U0028 Vehicle Communication Bus A ABS module REFER to VEHICLE DYNAMIC SYSTEMS article.
U0073 Control Module Communication Bus Off ABS module The module could not communicate on the network at a point in time. The fault is currently not present. CLEAR the DTC. REPEAT the network test with the scan tool.
U0100 Lost Communication With ECM/PCM IC Go to Pinpoint Test A .
U0100 Lost Communication With ECM/PCM Restraints control module (RCM) Go to Pinpoint Test A .
