U019E: Lost Communication With Transmission Range Control Module
Standardized SAE J2012 code · U01xx — Lost communication with modules
What does U019E mean?
ECU lost communication with transmission range control module (PRNDL gear selector). A communication loss with this module breaks any function relying on its data — diagnostic tools may show 'no response' and dependent modules can fall into limp mode.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Symptoms
- Multiple warning lights may illuminate
- Affected modules may go into limp mode or shut down
- Specific functions inoperative depending on module
- Diagnostic tools may show communication faults
Common causes
- High Module unpowered
- Low Gateway module routing CAN messages incorrectly
- Low CAN terminating resistor (120 Ω) drifted out of spec
Likelihood is a general estimate across vehicles; your make and model may differ.
