2010 Buick Lacrosse 3.0 CXL Error Codes
Evap Leak: Already Changed Gas Cap And Purge Valve - Found Small Hole In Hose Next To Purge Valve And Sealed It. Still having error codes..
U-0140-71 Error Seems To Be Communication With BCM, Throwing A Bunch Of Codes. Checked Wiring, Fuses Everything Seems Intact And Fuses Are Good. Don't Know WTF??
(Also not experiencing any problems the BCM that would throw out, like power windows, door locks, etc. And no idiot lights on dash except check engine for Purge Leak & tire monitoring light due to bad batteries in tire sensors)
Just Spent Over A Grand$$ Replacing ECM At Dealer Last Month Because They Are Only Ones Licensed To "Program" Computer.
Trying To Avoid Another Grand At The Dealer. If You Have Any Suggestions Appreciate it.
Thanks.
How any miles on this car?
How many miles have you owned it?
Has it been through any major trauma such as floods, accidents, poor repairs, etc.?
What was wrong with the ECM?
Have there been any repairs done on this car recently?
What region does this car live in?
Has it lived in any other regions?
I see two codes:
- P0455 - Major EVAP leak
- U0140-71 - Communication loss with BCM
What other codes are there?
What lights are on on the dash?

Miles 81K - Hand-me-down family car- No Accidents/Floods - Southeast - ECM was replaced because "limp mode" slowing vehicle down
You are correct those are the codes that show up. Car runs fine, except check engine light, Only scanner picking up other codes.

So no loss of communication with the BCM before changing out the ECM?
A month ago it was "key ignition" loss comm. Now that'* gone and "anti-brake system" loss comm nut runs fine. Of course if I bring it to dealer they'll just throw in new one and hope for the best. should be a better way to diagnose.
