The HECU sends requirement data, such as torque reduction, the number of fuel cut cylinders, and the ESP control request, to the PCM(ECM & TCM) through CAN bus line. The PCM(ECM) performs the fuel cut function according to a request signal from the HECU and then retards an ignition timing. The PCM(TCM) maintains current gear position during the ESP control period in order not to increase power which causes a Kickdown shift.
The HECU checks the CAN communcation lines for the normal ESP control, and sets this code if an TCM message is not received within 500ms.
Item  | Detecting Condition  | Possible cause  | 
DTC Strategy  | 
										•
									 CAN message monitoring  | 
										•
									 Faulty TCM 
										•
									 Open or short in CAN communication line 
										•
									 Poor connection  | 
Enable Conditions  | 
										•
									 In case that TCM message was not received for more than 500ms within normal voltage condition.  | |
Fail Safe  | 
										•
									 Inhibit the ESP control and allow the ABS/EBD control. 
										•
									 The ESP warning lamp is activated.  |
