Lost Communication with Power Steering Control Module

Understand U0220, common causes, and the right TOPDON scanner to diagnose it.

Power steering control module communication loss — distinct ID from U0131 on some networks.

Veelvoorkomende symptomen

  • Heavy steering
  • PS warning lamp

Typische oorzaken

  • EPS module fault
  • CAN wiring to rack
  • Steering fuse

Welke scanner heb je nodig?

Full-system scanner (engine, ABS, SRS, transmission, service resets)

Gebruik live data en freeze frame voordat je onderdelen vervangt. ABS-, SRS- en U-codes vereisen meestal een full-system scanner.

Diagnosetips

  • Leg freeze frame vast wanneer de code voor het eerst verschijnt
  • Wis de code pas na het oplossen van de oorzaak
  • Controleer op gerelateerde pending codes
  • Controleer of accuspanning boven 12,4 V is voordat je sensoren suspecteert
