DTC U0037 (98): IMA-CAN Malfunction (BUS-OFF (Motor Control Module (MCM)))




General Description
The integrated motor assist-controller area network (IMA-CAN) uses two signal lines, IMACANH and IMACANL, and it receives and transmits multiple signals simultaneously to/from multiple control modules.

When the information is not sent from all nodes through the IMA-CAN and this condition continues for a specified time, or when the information sent from all nodes is abnormal and this condition continues for a specified cycle, the motor control module (MCM) detects a malfunction and a DTC is stored.

- The information sent from the powertrain control module (PCM) through the IMA-CAN is not received for at least 1 second or the information sent from the PCM through the IMA-CAN is abnormal at least 10 times.
- The information sent from the battery condition monitor (BCM) module through the IMA-CAN is not received for at least 0.5 seconds or the information sent from the BCM module through the IMA-CAN is abnormal at least 10 times.

Diagnosis Details

Conditions for illuminating the MIL
When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and the DTC and the freeze frame data are stored in the PCM and BCM memory.

Conditions for clearing the MIL
The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic runs.

The MIL, the DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear command or by disconnecting the battery.
