Network communication OBD codes

Uxxxx · 5 codes · 5 with a full sheet

Codes starting with U point to communication problems between the car's computers, which exchange data over an internal network (usually the CAN bus). U0100, for example, indicates lost communication with the engine computer.

Before suspecting a computer, check the battery and its charge, the earths, the fuses and the connectors. Low voltage while starting can leave U codes stored in several modules at once.

If several computers record the same fault, the problem is usually in the network wiring or in the module they all stop communicating with.
