Overview
This code indicates that the VS-400 Forward Looking Radar (FLR) or the Driver Interface Unit (DIU) has detected that there is a J1939 data
link Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) condition.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Detection
At power up and throughout operation, the FLR, DIU, and other devices continuously communicate with each other on the J1939 data link.
If there is a J1939 Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) condition, such as a corrupted message, incorrect message formatting, or the complete
loss of all J1939 data, the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
