Misfire Detected - Rough Road Data Not Available
on 2011 Chevrolet Express 6.0L V8 Vortec · RWD
What this code means
The PCM detected engine misfires but cannot access rough road data from the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) to distinguish between actual misfires and crankshaft speed variations caused by rough road surfaces. The EBCM uses wheel speed sensors to detect rough road conditions.
Symptoms
- Check Engine Light
- Possible misfires
- Rough running
- Poor performance
- MIL may flash during misfire
Common causes
- ABS module malfunction preventing rough road detection
- Actual engine misfire with coincidental ABS issue
- Wheel speed sensor failure
- Communication fault between PCM and EBCM
- Spark plug or ignition coil failure
- Vacuum leak
Diagnostic steps
- Check for ABS/EBCM related codes first
- Inspect wheel speed sensors
- Test communication between PCM and EBCM
- If misfires are confirmed, check ignition and fuel systems
- Repair other codes before addressing P1380
Repair notes
Repair ABS/EBCM related codes first. If actual misfires exist, diagnose ignition and fuel systems separately. Clear code and retest.
