U0105 Lost Communication with Fuel Injector Control Module

The Fuel Injector Control Module has stopped transmitting on the vehicle data bus, so other control units no longer receive its messages. Injection-timing data is lost, which can stall the engine or prevent a start. Typical causes are loss of power or ground at the module, an open or shorted CAN/LIN bus wire, a connector fault, or an internal module failure.
