Service Stability - Traction - ABS Rear Wheel Speed DTC Or Chassis Expansion Bus
Communication Fault
Models:
2010 - 2012 Chevrolet Equinox
2010 - 2012 GMC Terrain
With Any Combination of DTC's U0074 U0125 C0196 C0287 C0186 C056D C0045 C0050
Symptom 00 06 3B 4A 4B 5A 39 42 54 71
The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
Condition/Concern:
Customers may comment on and intermittent DIC message Service Traction/Stability or ABS indicator.
Upon diagnostics the technician may find DTC's related to the chassis bus, or rear wheel speed sensor with U0125
00 U0074 00 and or wheel speed sensor C0045 C0050 symptom 06 DTCs.
This may be related to an internal wire break inside the wire harness insulation to the X411 connecter (location in the
left rear under the vehicle).
Recommendation/Instructions:
Identified is the most probable area. Inspect the wire harness insulation within 1 inch of the X411 before and after
connector.
Remove the tape and conduit from the wire harness and inspect the ckt 6105 and 6106 for chassis bus wires or
circuit 884, 885, 882, and 883 if related to wheel speed sensor codes C0045 or C0050.
During inspection you may notice a discoloration in insulation in one spot. If you pull the wire near that area the
insulation it will break exposing the broken wire. Repair the circuit to complete the procedure.
Note: Wire broken within the insulation has also been found high up in the harness X411. Reference the following

Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is
resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.

The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
Condition/Concern
Customers may comment on an intermittent DIC message Service Traction/Stability or ABS indicator. Upon
diagnostics the technician may find DTCs related to the chassis bus, or rear wheel speed sensor with U0125 00
U0074 00 U0073 and or wheel speed sensor C0045 C0050 symptom 06 DTCs. Other DTCs U0125 U0126 C0196
5A C0710 5A may be related to an internal wire break inside the wire harness insulation to the X411 connector or
possible unwanted rub through to ground. (Location in the left rear under the vehicle).
Recommendation/Instructions
Several conditions and symptoms have been found to be related to a wire harness at the left rear under vehicle.
Inspect the wire harness insulation within 1 inch of the X411 before and after connecter. It may be necessary to
remove the tape and conduit from the wire harness for inspection upstream from the X411 connecter. Some Issues
have been found with circuits 6105 and 6106 for chassis bus wires and serial enable circuit 5986 and 120 ohm
opens in 2500 and 2501 or 6106 and 6106. Other circuits 884, 885, 882, and 883 when related to rear wheel speed
sensor codes C0045 or C0050. During inspection you may notice a discoloration in insulation in one spot of the
wire. If you pull the wire near that area the insulation will break exposing the broken wire. Repair the circuit to
complete the procedure.
Diagnostic tips on intermittent Chassis Buss and High Speed LAN Buss: Using DVOM set to Ohms, connect meter
between DLC pins 12 and 13 for chassis buss or 6 and 14 for high speed buss of DLC connecter, set the meter to
Min / Max, and wiggle the harness up and down under the left-rear areas of the connecter. When you hear the meter
beeping, check that area of the harness.
Note: Wire broken within the insulation has also been found high up in the harness X411. Reference the following

information on wire/connector repairs.
Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is
resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.

The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
Condition/Concern
Customers may comment on an intermittent DIC message Service Traction/Stability, ABS indicator or Service All
wheel Drive. Upon diagnostics the technician may find DTCs related to the chassis bus, or rear wheel speed sensor
with U0125 00 U0074 00 U0073 and or wheel speed sensor C0045 C0050 symptom 06 DTCs. Other DTC U0125
U0126 C0196 SYM 5A C0710 SYM 5A or no communication with (RDM) Rear Differential Module. This may be
related to an internal wire break inside the wire harness insulation to the X411 connecter due to rodents. (Location in
the left rear under the vehicle).
Recommendation/Instructions
Several conditions and symptoms have been found to be related to a wire harness at the left rear under vehicle.
Inspect the wire harness insulation within 1 inch of the X411 before and after connecter. It may be necessary to

sensor codes C0045 or C0050. During inspection you may notice chewed up conduit or a discoloration in insulation
in one spot of the wire. If you pull the wire near that area the insulation it will break exposing the broken wire and
possible corrosion or rodent damage. Repair the circuit to complete the procedure.
Diagnostic tips on intermittent Chassis Buss and High Speed LAN Buss: Find a known good vehicle and check the
ohms between 6 & 14 and 12 & 13 and voltage readings of each for comparison. Using DVOM set to Ohms, connect
meter between DLC pins 12 and 13 for chassis buss or 6 and 14 for high speed buss of DLC connecter, set the
meter to Min / Max, and wiggle the harness up and down under the left-rear areas of the connecter. When you hear
the meter beeping, check that area of the harness.
Note: Wire broken within the insulation has also been found high up in the harness X411 it will be necessary to
lower the harness to gain access. Reference the following photos:
