2007 Honda Civic si No Communication with Gauge Control Module Figured Out

[@HomieHektor]

I broke this one down into three parts, because I didn’t wanna bore you with 30 minutes of footage. If you’re gonna dislike the video leave a comment along with your 👎 and let me know what’s on your mind. Remember when ONE teaches, TWO learn...think about it.

[@TastyCola]

The Homie Hektor hey hektor I was hoping you could help me out. My 08 civic si pretty much has the same exact symptoms as this civic u worked on. I unplugged the abs and it still didn’t work. I took it to a mech to get it diagnosed and he wants me to get a whole new control cluster model and wants to charge 1300 for everything. I’m convinced my cluster works because I didn’t the diagnostic tests and all my lights turn on. I’m kinda lost at this point and was hoping if u could offer any solutions

[@jaymontana4501]

Dhawal J hey bro did you ever figure out your issue? I’m doing the same issue and unplugged the ABS & SRS and EPS but still having the same issue. But I do have a cut wire near the ABS plug that I can’t figure out where it goes.

[@heetwaavebookbrain9255]

Got my car fix turn out the abs wire was having a sort. Respect brother

[@glasser2819]

Don maestro, your troubleshooting is awesome. Working on separate CAN network misbehaving is never a cake walk. You cornered it logically by probing the CAN-Sigs and disconnecting ghost modules 👍👍

[@gazamangazaman3080]

I think you have done a great job well done

[@The_Redkween]

Thank you, Hector for your explanation. I am also an electronic troubleshooter and your methods at solid. I replaced the brakes and the serpentine belt on my 2015 Accord EXL 3.5L. After putting the car back together I had the FCW fault, ABS fault, LDW fault, tire pressures fault, and steering fault. After immediately thinking I did something wrong during the brake rotor/pad install on all four corners, I wasted hours going back over that. After watching your video, O realized the ABS controller was the one I took loose to put the serpentine belt in. Just didn’t get the connector seated all the way. Thanks!!

Hello I am having this same issue with my Honda Civic vtec 2007 and it has this same issue except it sometimes turns back on have had times where I am driving and the speedo, temp , and fuel all turn off . Any suggestions , I also had one of the power socket fuses blown up recently like you did.

[@donamedoname9919]

Thanks a lot for giving me new hope. I have a Honda Ridgeline 2008 RTL and the electrical system is acting up. First the guage is not showing the outside temp, odometer, trip and even the Headlight swithc and other info. Plus the AC blower works but the AC Radiator fan and clutch do not engage. Took it to the workshop and they say to replace the MICU. In Ghana I am not getting the same model M2 I got similar one for the Honda Accord and other models M6 and M4. I need help what do I do can I try the different models on my car? What do you or any one recommend

[@gagans7662]

Can I please get a copy of the wiring diagram?

[@ghost16202]

I’ve changed out the PCM and the ECU, which is the same thing. I’ve reprogrammed it with my scanner. I’m having crank no start. And I replaced tachometer and still no lights on the tachometer. And I’m still getting the code U1055. No communication with gauge cluster from ECU. I’m getting that code on the transmission and the body train. Do you think it’s just ABS module? I have not checked out yet? Thanks for the advice I had of time. And by the way, with the key turned forward the car will not shift out of park. Weird.

[@ghost16202]

Will a bad ABS module cause the vehicle to not start? I’m getting the code for F can ECM U1055 I changed the ECM and I changed the gauge cluster still doing the same thing.

[@alejandrodavilacortes5772]

So how much was the VSA/ABS module?. I have a problem: my 2010 Si doesn't let me go over 4K RPM. I got VSA with the warning triangle lights turned on. Thanks for the video!

[@heatherrhodge2588]

my 05 Acura TSX went into limp mode outta nowhere a few mts ago with U0107 DTC (lost communication with TAC module). i followed factory service manual chart & all voltages, continuity/resistance checks were normal. replaced TAC module. no fix. code won't clear. i don't have a bidirectional scan tool or scope. there's no CAN lines at DLC.. it's ISO 9141-2 so just k line but i do know of one connector behind the dash with direct access to CAN H & low. the other day i decided to do voltage & resistance checks at APP sensor, those were normal too but i felt like i didn't get the connector pushed all the way into sensor. i obv didn't bc i pulled codes again and had a code for each APP sensor but also a U0155. the gauges all work tho. would there be any way for me to do any further diagnosing using just a multimeter and Bluetooth scan tool or am i to the point where I'll have to have to get better tools? do you know if it'd be possible to get waveforms just from a DLC adapter to laptop or would i need to hook directly to CAN lines for this info? any help is greatly appreciated!!

I think it was around $2200. So not bad. But that was also after I went in a cussed them out and called all their service reps and techs incompetent and useless. Hence why my car was overseen directly by the service manager and a Honda engineer and also got a fat dicount. My car was at the dealership for 4 months but the first 2 months it sat there and they didn’t even touch it cause they didn’t know what was wrong with it or what to do. And they never answered my calls or called back when I left voicemails. That’s why I went in in person and cussed them all out.
