U0227Lost Communication With Door Window Motor F
- Generic OBD-II code · Network
- How the car detects it
- U0227 reports that door window motor F cannot be reached. Besides wiring faults, the LIN sleep and wake cycle is worth understanding here. In NXP's AN2960 window-lift example the motor node drops into low-power mode on a go-to-sleep request, or after four seconds without bus traffic, behaviour that LIN 2.0 makes mandatory for slaves, and it becomes active again on bus activity or through a wake pin. A node that fails to wake, for instance because of an unstable supply or a damaged transceiver, looks to the master like a lost node. No manufacturer documents U0227 publicly, and letter F is assigned by the maker. U0528 is the matching invalid-data code. No MIL.
