About U0023

U0023 is a generic (obd-ii standard) network communication diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the U-prefix family of codes, which covers inter-module network communication (CAN, LIN, FlexRay, or similar) faults.

When U0023 is stored, the module has detected a signal or supply voltage lower than the expected operating range; and a signal or supply voltage higher than the expected operating range.

Scanning & clearing: Network (U) codes report communication faults between modules. When diagnosing U-codes, checking the vehicle's CAN bus integrity, supply/ground at each module, and reading all modules for related faults is usually the first step.

Because U0023 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.
