2014 RT stranded in Winslow, AZ

[UtahPete]

My friend from Arizona is dead in the water in Winslow, AZ. 2014 RT

The codes he pulled are;
U0100
U0122
U0073
C006C

Is there something he can do to fix the fault and get back home?

 

[Snowbelt Spyder]

Has he checked his fuses yet?

I don't think so. I'll suggest that. Do you know which ones and which fuse box?

A quick Google search found this about 2 of them.
C006c is in the ECM module
It is a VSS CAN message plausibility error
Caused by communication intermittent/erratic and/or Check Sum Error.
External troubleshooting is not possible, check for communication fault.

UO122DPS is in the DPS module.
It is a loss of communication with the VCM (loss of CAN ID's.)
Caused by VCM fault active. Damaged circuit wires, damaged VCM or damaged DPS/VCM pins.
Action..Check for VCM fault.
Disconnect MPI2 from DLC connector.
Measure resistance between DLC-1 and DLC-2 (expected value = 50-70 ohms.)
Measure resistance between DLC-1 and ECMB-C1 (expected value < 2 ohms).
Measure resistance between DLC-2 and ECMB-C2 (expected value < 2 ohms)

I looked up the codes in the app and they all are electrical / CAN Bus in nature. I don’t know which fuse but the descriptions in the owners manual should give a clue. I don’t have schematics. Maybe Billy will find this thread and can ferret something out.

On a lighter note, have him look for "A girl my Lord in a flat bed Ford". Sorry couldn't resist. Good luck.

He said he's on the wrong corner!

He is checking them. He thinks it might be a relay, but I didn't see any reference to a relay in the code descriptions.

You know how those fuses can be hard to see. Remind him that he may have to pull them to get a good look.

Have him look for damaged wires, like maybe the harness on the swingarm having come loose and rubbing on the tire. If there are no blown fuses and no damaged wires the the most likely suspect is the VCM, vehicle control module. If it's bad I think that would be a first here on SL.

Something else to consider is the battery, if it's low on voltage it can cause all sorts of codes. Is it the original battery? Ours only lasted 3 years on our 14 RT.

I agree when it’s electrical check the battery and it’s connections.

Good to see friends helping friends here. Anything beyond what I have seen so far is above my pay grade.

Hope he gets it figured out. :bowdown::bowdown:

 

[UtahPete]

Well, he gave up trying to fix it and got a lift ....

 

[Snowbelt Spyder]

Well, when you're stranded on a corner in Winslow, Arizona, it's tough to get into it too deep. Once he finds out what the issue was, I'd be interested.

 

[billybovine]

I just got home and did not see this thread until now. Sorry I could not help. I would like to know what he finds out. Tomorrow, when I have more time, I will take a look at the codes and make a guess.

 

[DGoebel]

+1 on the battery, Have it load tested, My '13's battery died last year and I was getting all sorts of weird codes and behaviors. someone here got me to check mine, and after a new battery, haven't had another electronic issue yet.....

 

[Chupaca]

Also late to the party....

U0100 Lost communication or CAN-BUS ID.. (Controller Area Network)
U0122 same as U0100
U0073 CAN-Bus failure CAN-Bus off
C006C communication intermitten /erratic sometimes triggered by U0122
Blown VCM fuse

Just for the record... opcorn:'ing to see what they find if more than a computer reset....:thumbup:

 

[youngers]

Well, he gave up trying to fix it and got a lift ....
