Advanced Diagnostics - DTC U1207 (80): IMA-CAN Malfunction (A/C Compressor Driver-Battery Condition Monitor (BCM) Module)






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 the A/C compressor driver through the IMA-CAN and this condition continues for a specified time or when the information sent from the A/C compressor driver is abnormal and this condition continues for a specified cycle, the battery condition monitor (BCM) module detects a malfunction and when BUS-OFF is not detected after the time to detect BUS-OFF has passed, a DTC is stored.
