"U" trouble codes - Don't replace the TIPM just yet on your Dodge

Mark wrestles with the Can Bus system that makes the car go haywire. He finds the "twisted pair" of can bus wires that is causing major headaches for Dodge / Ram / Chrysler / Jeep owners - he wants you to check this BEFORE changing the TIPM module or other remedies.

[@MusicMaverick22]

I just want to thank you. After 8 months trying to figure out the issue with my '14 Wrangler causing it to not shift under heavy acceleration... After 6 different shops including 4 different Jeep dealerships, tapping FCA's engineering team to consult... no one could figure out the cause. They spent $15,000 replacing the entire transmission, the cat converters, the ECU, the PCM, not to mention the couple thousand I spent trying fixes on my own such as various speed sensors, cam sensors, and yes, a TIPM... I stumbled across your video late one night and decided to look around my engine... Sure enough, I found a wiring harness that wasn't melted or anything but was pressed against the coolant tube. All I did was stuff a piece of insulation between the tube and the harness and it seems to have completely fixed my problem.... Unbelievable... So again, thank you...

I’m a mechanic …I brought my car to a performance shop to get it converted to E 85 and get a tune on to my redeye after doing a lot of modifications so I let them put the New injectors in and they had to remove my supercharger ..Then I kept getting a bunch of ‘U’ codes after this🤦‍♂️ so I decided to work on my vehicle at my shop to look it over …the top of my supercharger, they disconnected the wiring hornist and they plugged it in, but it was laying on top the super charger cooler line 😮so I put a zippy tied to hold it up, and so far so good for three days… Thanks for the video it helped

I love how you explained what the heck a can-bus system was. Everything seemed to be jargon to me when researching so I loved the way you pointed that out. What's the difference between can bus A, b, c? Where would Can bus C be located?

[@Bolverkr13]

This made me have a mental click that all my issues started after installing an inverter. Pulled out the old ghost hunting kit, grabbed my EMF detector, and sure enough, get within 6 feet of that thing and the detector was red-lining. Turn off the inverter, no more spikes. Surprised the FCC hasn’t hunted me down yet. Those things can create some crazy interference. Thanks for your help, man. Saved me a couple hundred bucks, and gave the ghost detector something to detect.

[@tracewallace23]

GREAT explanation on the CAN sys.👍 I just happened to see a story the other day explaining that when communication wiring (telephone/internet company's) use paired twisted wires (one is a ground/return) that the way that they keep the signals from interfering with each other (electromagneticly) with multiple pairs in each loom is by adjusting the number of twists per inch... If they can interfere with each other with such small em signals, I've got to believe that any large metal in close proximity or moving water (with any metallic material), or even some heat sources would also interfere.

[@carquestions]

You wouldn't believe how many times chryco dodge etc has placed a twisted pair in direct contact with metal or moving coolant

[@andrewdomenitz2970]

Nice work. I am sure it applies to a lot of vehicles and people jump right into replacing the damn thing and not solve their problem. I saw something about how the CANBUS can be easily checked somewhere but forgot how to do it already.

[@carquestions]

Canbus is fine if you don't get any U codes - just a simple scan

Need to have a scope, im looking into them. Really expensive.

[@bigguy2144]

This was not the problem I am having with my vehicle but as I was researching how to replace the TIPM I came across this video and now I am wondering if my set of problems might just be from a similar cause. I'm going to start tracing wires before I get into the more invasive stuff. Thank you for the idea.

Good video and it has me thinking! I have a 2015 Dodge Journey SE and some of the problems you explain happen to me intermittently. All the cluster lights would come on, my turn signals would stop working, no speed reading on either digital or round speedometer. After a while, the lights would start to go out and things like turn signals would be normal. Finally it would leave only the check-engine light on which would eventually go off as well. This happened twice. My mechanic cleaned the connections and it worked fine for a few days then started again. Now, he says the TIPM is faulty. I'm going to check your advice over the weekend as the new TIPM won't be in till next week. Thanks for the heads-up!!

Looked over as much wiring as I could see and everything was in order......did some more research and confirmed it was stuck in limp mode, so I took to the dealership for a full diag. Valve body/shift solenoid was bad. They wanted 1900 for the Oem so I picked up a remanufactured one. All was good for a few days then it started slipping and not always going into gear when shifting from park to drive or reverse so I parked it and to not make it worse not I won't go in the gear at all after sitting for just short of a week......so back to square one it seems

[@michellemanchester9184]

My van has still never started again but I finally managed to get an ohms meter and will be able to test. I found a gps tracking unit under the dash that was just spliced into my remote start antenna as well as my immobilizer. Seriously, they had simply removed a small portion of the casing and then wrapped about two inches of wire around that space and taped it. The blue and purple wires they had done correctly but no doubt in my mind the others had at very least, left an open circuit. If that wasn't the cause of my van slipping into limp home mode I will be shocked. Unfortunately, it still won't start after removal and another full reset. The abs and traction control light stay on on the dash too. Keep in mind I couldn't test anything so I have yet to replace the circuit breaker or any relays. I've simply moved around what I could and did try a bypass on the fuel pump. Crazy I can even write these things. I grew up in "the system" and can't even figure out how to do a budget but somehow I've learned all of this so far. LOL

I have a 2010 Jeep Patriot where it's throwing random codes, from Pcodes to Ucodes and the instrument cluster looks like yours as well as the engine wants to rev up when the emergency brake light on the instrument panel comes on. Feels like the abs brakes are slightly on as well when I drive. When I put the Jeep in drive sometimes the ABS lights/traction lights go off. I looked for can bus wires, but had no luck finding them. I feel like this could be a relay issue as I had one previously and my mechanic just wired relays outside of the relay box. Great video and cheers from Canada!

So when we got towed home my husband disconnected the battery and then reconnected. It started working fine. We had our mobile mechanic come over and he hooked up his computer and got a bunch of codes but says its just from what happened so its showing tons of codes cuz everything was wigging out. He cleared them. And hoped it wouldn't happen again. Not happy with that answer, we took it to our other mechanic and they checked everything and said it was all good. Still not happy with that answer we took it to a dodge dealer. (We have a dodge durango). They called today and said they tried everything to try and get the codes to come back up. They said they need the codes to be able to figure out what happened. They drove it for 50 plus miles and it wouldn't happen again. They basically said it might have gotten wet. We did have snow and I'm guessing when it melted it got on the tipm... they said if it happens again to not reset it or reconnect the battery but to bring it in. So I'm bummed that I don't have a clear answer as to what happened. Because I'm seriously afraid of it happening again. We bought this used car (2015) only 4 months ago. Also we have never had a nice car like this with all these electronic stuff in it like the screen and the heated seats and all that jazz so im prob gonna be freaking out anytime it snows or rains. Bleh. By the way my husband did look around for wires but found that they were all hidden well. I pray something like that does not happen again. It was super scary! I think the worse part is I want to know why it happened. So that I can make sure it doesn't happen again.

[@WizzRacing]

Common issue with any Dodge, Chrysler... They put the wiring or ECU under the front driver side wheel well...Some have the engine wiring harness going under the intake from the driver side to the passenger side. Which get hot over time under there. And they melt the wiring....And that harness is $350.00 US... I build news ones using automotive grade wiring made for high heat. Then use TESA tape to wrap them real good... I would add. The shorting of the wiring is what cause the TIPM to go bad., So you have to fix the root cause. As I seen people put as new TIPM in. Only to fry that new one...

Great video on this issue! OK, I have 2007 Caliber SXT and replaced thermostats last week and discovered wires/harness in exact same position and the conduit (think you called it loom) just cracked apart and turned to dust as I squeezed it. I am looking at electrical related to transmission codes and do not see "CAN BUS" mentioned in the schematics. However last night I discovered twisted pair of wires (white with black and white with blue or green stripe) in driver side wheel well that had been repaired at some point and they do not look to be in very good condition. I am going to be testing some of these wires today; but I was wondering if the wires in that area of your car were ones going to output speed sensor. I am getting P0717 and P0722 (input and output sensors) and also transmission overheat light coming on and going into limp mode; and these only started after my car was overheating, which is why I changed thermostats. Also, maybe 3 weeks before I had overheating issue with cooling system my power steering went out - as a result of me getting stuck in mud and moving steering wheel back and forth in effort to get unstuck (tip - let air out of tires to about 17 lbs) - and I have not repaired that yet. Do you think that could have anything to do with transmission overheating? I will do more research on the CAN BUS system, but was wondering how it is related to the schematics of sensors. Thanks for video. Just wished is was my exact model.

sounds like separate problems but could be related - fix the twisted pair for sure - Cheers!

Now they are telling me that something is shorting out the TIPM and still won't allow it to start.

My drive select indicator doesn’t show what gear I’m in and my odometer is stuck on 167,141, it won’t change. I have lost my acc cluster when I turn the key, but if I close or open any door it comes back on with all the warning lights, but no gauges working, almost like closing or opening a door is triggering something. I’ve checked all fuses and relays and all seems fine. I’ve cleaned all my grounds in the engine bay. I’ve inspected most of the wiring in the engine bay. I have changed my ignition switch 2 times bought from 2 different stores. I’ve had the car scanned and got codes: u1411, u0114, u140e, c2202, u0100, u0141, and u0101. Been trying to resolve this for almost a week now. One time the car came back to normal for about 1 minute, I touched the power button on the radio and it went back to the electrical problems.

I'd just wish they'd make the vehicles with a cleaner wiring setup rather than leaving them next to the engine. I get some cables must run through but within most cables they really just don't need to be there. Plus they could place them in a better convenient area that should be easier to reach.

TRG - it all comes down to money and they never make "easy to repair" one of their objectives - Cheers from Canada!

@@carquestions thats the thing they already have that money. Cars today are very expensive almost as a joke. Just 20 years ago a vehicle was half the price. Inflation of course but theyre making so much. Its not that theyre trying to save money theyre trying to get you to spend more on the difficult tasks to reaching in for repairs. A vehicle costs half the price even a third of it most of it goes back to the dealerships or on advertisements.

@@therapgame1091 There is no doubt that sometimes it they make it harder to repair - they certainly want to make it proprietary - also they intend on making money three times off each car - sale, repairs and trade in.
