Hummer H2. Manual — part 239

Does the scan tool communicate with the BCM?

Go to Step 36

33

1. Turn OFF the ignition.

2. Disconnect the module that caused the no

communication condition.

3. Test the class 2 serial data circuit between the splice

pack - SP205 and the respective module for a short to
ground or a short to voltage. Turn ON the ignition
leaving the engine OFF when testing for a short to
voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring
Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Inspect for poor connections at the class 2 serial data circuit
of the last disconnected module. Refer to Testing for
Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and
Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

35 Replace the last disconnected module. Refer to Control

Module References in Body Control System for the
appropriate repair instructions.Did you complete the
replacement?

IMPORTANT:

Perform the module setup procedure if required.

Go to Step 36

-

36

1. Reconnect all of the disconnected modules.

2. Reconnect any other disconnected connectors.

3. Install a scan tool.

4. Turn ON the ignition leaving the engine OFF.

5. Wait for 10 seconds.

The scan tool may require a power up reset before
communication will occur due to a short on the class 2
serial data circuit. Turn OFF the scan tool prior to
performing this test.

6. Select the Display DTCs function for each module. If

using a Tech 2, use the Class 2 DTC Check feature in
order to determine which modules do have DTCs set.

7. Record all of the displayed DTCs and the DTC status.

Did you record any DTCs which begin with a "U" and with
a current status?

Go to Step 38

Go to Step

37

37 Did you record any DTCs which do not begin with a "U"?

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

DATA LINK COMMUNICATIONS DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Circuit Description

The data link connector (DLC) allows a scan tool to communicate with the class 2 serial data line. The serial
data line is the means by which the microprocessor-controlled modules in the vehicle communicate with each
other. Once the scan tool is connected to the class 2 serial data line through the DLC, the scan tool can be used
to monitor each module for diagnostic purposes and to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). Class 2 serial
data is transmitted on a single wire at an average of 10.4 kbps. This value is an average, class 2 uses a variable
