The HECU send requirement data, such as Torque reduction, the number of fuel cut cylinders, and ESP control requests, to the Engine PCM(ECM & TCM) through CAN bus line.
The Engine PCM(ECM) performs fuel cut functions according to requests from the HECU and retards ignition timing by torque reduction requests.
The PCM(TCM) maintains current gear positions during ESP control time, in order not to increase power which causes a Kickdown shift.
The HECU checks the CAN communcation lines for normal ESP control, and sets this code if a PCM(ECM) message has an error in it.

DTC Strategy
CAN message monitoring
A fault in the ECM side
Poor connection of CAN communication circuit

EnableConditions
Faults are detected if the message from PCM(ECM) was incorrect.
Fail-Safe
Inhibit the ESP control and allow the ABS/EBD control.
