Drives well but I have codes u0001, u0002, and u0101. Read somewhere that it could be moisture in the trunk on right side by fuse box. It was damp there but there was no water in the box at all. Cleaned all connectors with electric spray. Still have the codes. What is back there that could be affected?

Hello,

U0001 High Speed CAN communication bus loss
U0101 TCM unable to communicate with other control modules on the vehicle.

I would check the fuse with the key on here is a guide and fuse location in the images below, and if okay I would dry everything out and then replace the TCM which I have included the location and instructions in the images below as well. Please let me know what happens.

Can you tell me where the modules are that are responsible for the CAN for the connection between car and TCM? I am trying to find out if it's an internal transmission issue or a module issue. All fuses are okay.

I don't think it is internal because the code is "TCM unable to communicate with other control modules".

So, if the fuses are good, it should be the module.

I looked there and there is nothing, its empty, usually a class has ton of modules there. Saw a bit of oil in the connector to the transmission, cleaned it and will see if it makes any difference, 4 wires going in. That is all I found, nothing on side of transmission as well.
