DTC U0401: Invalid Data Received from ECM/PCM A: Action

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford EcoSport. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CARRY OUT a self-test of the PCM. If the diagnostic scan tool indicates the module is not responding, REFER to appropriate Module Communication Network to diagnose the network communication concern. If PCM DTCs are present, REFER to the appropriate ENGINE CONTROLS - POWERTRAIN DTC CHARTS & DESCRIPTIONS (EXCEPT DIESEL & HYBRID) to diagnose the PCM system fault. If there are no DTCs in the PCM, SET the ignition to OFF. DISCONNECT and INSPECT all PCM electrical connectors for corrosion, bent pins, pushed-out pins and spread terminals. REPAIR as necessary.
