Troubleshooting Steps
- Step 1: Connect a diagnostic scanner and read all module DTCs to confirm U0795
DTC U0795 is present; note which module logged the code - Step 2: Check CAN bus wiring between the affected modules for continuity, shorts, and termination resistor values
CAN high and low lines intact, 60 ohms across the bus - Step 3: Verify power and ground supplies to the affected module
Battery voltage at module power pin, less than 0.1V drop on ground side - Step 4: If wiring is intact, the affected module may need replacement and programming
Communication restored after module replacement and programming
How to Reset
