Pinpoint Test Ar: Abs (Anti-Lock Brake System) Module Communication Concern With The IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Ford Police Interceptor Utility and 2022 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Refer to: MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
With the ignition ON, the IPC sends messages to the ABS module through the GWM the over the CAN. If the ABS module does not receive these messages within a certain time frame, the module sets one or more Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). This can be due to an IPC failure, a circuit failure on the network or an excessive load on the network. For information on the messages sent to the ABS module by the IPC, REFER to: Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) and Stability Control - System Operation and Component Description .
DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Condition |
|---|---|---|
| ABS U0155:00 | Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Control Module: No Sub Type Information | Sets when the ABS module does not receive any messages from the IPC. This can be due to a IPC failure, a circuit failure on the CAN or an excessive load on the network. |
| ABS U0155:87 | Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) Control Module: Missing Message | Sets when the ABS module receives the odometer master value message with invalid data instead of the vehicle millage. This can be due to an IPC failure, a circuit failure or an excessive load on the network. |
