DTC Code DTC Name
U011B Lost Communication with Rocker Arm Control Module "A"

DESCRIPTION

The ECM and continuously variable valve lift controller assembly send signals via CAN communication.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area MIL Memory
U011B Lost Communication with Rocker Arm Control Module "A" CAN communication stops (1 trip detection logic).

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • When one of the following DTCs is stored and the MIL is illuminated, DTC P1047 is stored and actuator position learning is performed every time the engine is started. Also, after the system returns to normal, the following occurs during the first driving cycle: 1) DTC P1047 is stored, 2) actuator position learning is performed and 3) the MIL illuminates during actuator position learning.

    Actuator position learning is performed when these DTCs are output.
    P1046, P1049, P104A, P1055, P2646, P2647, P2648, P2649, P264A, U011B
  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

Tech Tips


  • When there is no power (+B) supplied to the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly, DTC U011B is stored. After the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly power supply system and communication lines have been connected or repaired, actuator position learning is performed and DTC P1047 is stored the next time the vehicle is driven.

  • After performing repairs, perform the confirmation driving pattern and check that DTCs are not output again.

  • Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (POWER SOURCE OF CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE VALVE LIFT CONTROLLER ASSEMBLY)


    1. A01QQ45C01

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Continuously Variable Valve Lift Controller Assembly)

      Disconnect the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly connector.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      B46-1 (+B) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V

    OK
  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE VALVE LIFT CONTROLLER ASSEMBLY - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the continuously variable valve lift controller assembly connector.

    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      B46-4 (CAN+) - B75-61 (CAN+) Always Below 1 Ω
      B46-2 (CAN-) - B75-62 (CAN-) Always Below 1 Ω
      B46-4 (CAN+) or B75-61 (CAN+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      B46-2 (CAN-) or B75-62 (CAN-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG
