[rvssv]

Hi all l am having a problem with codes UO0073 can bus communication UO100 lost communication with engine control module UO101 lost communication with transmission control module on my 6 litre 2013 vf ssv commodore the car has only done 70,000KMS and was fine for a couple of years but now these codes are frequently coming up causing the car to start off in what seems like third gear with the engine light displayed l clear codes and its fine for a while but not long l have been told it could be PCM problems TCM problems or something else , l rang the dealer l purchased from and they said it would take 3 to 4 months just to look at it . . . . has anyone had these problems with their vf and could maybe offer some solutions ?
thanks

I havent had this sort issue, as I dont have a VF
But this little bit of advice may help,

Resetting the codes all the time would be a PITA,
I would start checking the plugs/connectors it does sound like a common denominator,
I'd be inclined to download the Service Manual, Its a all PDF PC Manual,
will not work on a phone or ipad,

Holden VF,WN & HSV Gen-F Workshop Manual

Check the -
"Diagnostic Information and Procedures" (as it has Diagnostic Instructions)
&
"Wiring Systems and Power Distribution"/"Schematic and Routing Diagrams"

That's not acceptable

I'm sure forum member Skylarking will be able to give you some good advice on that issue.

I forget to mention about that,

As that would past the 90 day Warranty period.

From my experience that tends to be a battery issue. How old is the battery?

Possibly that was why the owner sold it to dealer,

Dealer reset the codes,
and sold it on.

Who was the Dealer ?
Name them and Shame them !

You don't need to say anything about them,
Just let us know where you bought it.

So the members will stay clear of them.

Or alternator ?

VE's & VF can create strange issues with unusual voltages.

Hence check the Diagnostic Instructions for your codes.

Put a new battery in about a year ago low voltage was an issue

Yeah but the dealer is now kia as with all the old Holden dealerships there all dead

Not all Holden Dealerships are KIA,
some are KIA & Mitsubishi I have noticed on my travels.

I am assuming you are South of Melbourne ?
