DTC U0184: Audio Time-out
CAUTION If DTC U0184 is set in the A/C-ECU, diagnose the CAN main bus line.
CAUTION Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the communication circuit is normal.
TROUBLE JUDGMENT
The A/C-ECU receives air conditioning operation- related signals from the audio via the CAN bus lines. If any of the air conditioning control-related signals from the audio cannot be received, the diagnostic trouble code U0184 is stored.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
Current trouble
- Connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus lines between the Audio and the A/C-ECU, the power supply system to the Audio, the Audio itself, or the A/C-ECU may be defective.
Past trouble
- If DTC U0184 is stored as a past trouble, carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on wiring and connector(s) in the CAN bus line between the A/C-ECU and the Audio, and the power supply system to the Audio. If the connectors and wiring are normal, and obviously the ECU is the cause of the trouble, replace the ECU. If in doubt, do not replace the ECU.
NOTE: For a past trouble, you cannot find it by the scan tool CAN bus diagnostics even if there is a failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points − How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions) and check the CAN bus lines. You can narrow down the possible cause of the trouble by referring to the DTC, which is set regarding the CAN communication- linked ECUs (Refer to GROUP 54C, Explanation about the scan too CAN bus diagnostics).

YES : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent malfunction is present in the lines between the audio and the A/C-ECU.
NO : Replace the Audio. On completion, check that the DTC is not reset.
STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Check if the DTC is set.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?
YES : A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent malfunction is present in the lines between the audio and the A/C-ECU.
NO : Replace the A/C-ECU. On completion, check that the DTC is not reset.
DTC U0195: Satellite radio tuner Time-out
CAUTION If DTC U0195 is set in the A/C-ECU, diagnose the CAN main bus line.
CAUTION Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the communication circuit is normal.
TROUBLE JUDGMENT
The A/C-ECU receives air conditioning operation- related signals from the satellite radio tuner via the CAN bus lines. If any of the air conditioning control- related signals from the satellite radio tuner cannot be received, the diagnostic trouble code U0195 is stored.

The most important point in troubleshooting is to
determine "Probable Cause". Once the probable
causes are determined, parts to be checked can be
limited to those associated with such probable
