Causes
- Broken, corroded or disconnected wiring/connector to the alternative fuel control module
- No power (fused B+) or poor ground at the module
- Failed alternative fuel control module
- Network (CAN/LIN) bus fault or missing termination
- Software/firmware mismatch or module needing reflash
- Intermittent connection caused by moisture, vibration or damaged pins
Symptoms
- MIL or network/communication warning lamps illuminated
- Reduced or no functionality of alternative fuel system (e.g., no switching, no status messages)
- Instrument cluster or info center shows 'service alternative fuel system' or 'module not present' messages
- Stored U0108 and possibly other U‑codes for modules on same network
- Intermittent or permanent loss of data values from the alternative fuel module on a scan tool
What to check
- Use a professional scan tool to confirm U0108 and look for related U-codes and freeze frame data
- Verify the alternative fuel control module appears in the scan tool's module list or is absent
- Check for network bus-off status or high error counters on the scan tool
- Inspect fuses and relays supplying the module for continuity and correct voltage
- Visually inspect module connector and harness for corrosion, damaged pins, water intrusion, soot, or crushing
- Measure battery voltage at module power pin with key ON and engine OFF
Signal parameters
- CAN bus recessive voltage: CAN_H ≈ 2.5 V, CAN_L ≈ 2.5 V (key ON, engine OFF)
- CAN bus dominant voltages: CAN_H ≈ 3.5 V, CAN_L ≈ 1.5 V during active transmission
- Expected differential voltage during messaging: ~1.5 - 2.5 V peak
- Module supply (B+) at connector: battery voltage (approx. 12 V with key ON, 12.6 V engine off)
- Module ground: near 0 V, low resistance to chassis (< 0.2 Ω desirable)
- CAN termination resistance: approx. 60 Ω measured between CAN_H and CAN_L at any convenient location
Diagnostic algorithm
- Connect a capable scan tool. Record U0108 and any additional U-codes. Note freeze frame and count of occurrences.
- Attempt to communicate with the alternative fuel module. If the module isn't present on the network, proceed with wiring and power checks.
- Inspect the module connector and harness for water, corrosion, damaged pins, or rodent damage. Repair or replace damaged sections before further testing.
- Verify B+ feed and ground at the module connector (measure voltage and ground resistance). Repair blown fuse, bad relay, or poor ground as needed.
- With key ON, measure CAN_H and CAN_L at the module connector. Confirm recessive voltages (~2.5 V) and that differential communication occurs while requesting data from other modules.
- Check total CAN termination resistance across CAN_H to CAN_L (~60 Ω). If termination is incorrect, locate and repair missing/shorted termination resistors.
- Monitor bus traffic with the scan tool or oscilloscope while performing a wiggle test on the harness and connectors to locate intermittent faults.
- Isolate suspected sections: disconnect nearby modules or aftermarket devices one at a time (only if safe) to determine if another node is causing bus errors.
- If wiring and power/grounds are confirmed good and the module remains non-responsive, check for available software updates/TSBs and attempt module reprogramming per OEM procedures.
- Replace the alternative fuel control module only after confirming the network and power supply are correct. Reprogram/configure and perform re-learning procedures as required.
- Clear codes and perform a road test or functional test to verify the repair. Re-scan to confirm U0108 does not return.
Likely causes
- Open or short in CAN High/Low or LIN signal wires to the module
- Module supply fuse or relay blown or poor B+ at module connector
- Damaged module connector pins (corrosion, bent, pushed out)
- Bus termination resistor missing or shorted
- Module powered but software not responding (needs reprogram)
