2. Technical explanation

Official Mitsubishi service material groups U11A0 with CMU communication timeout codes U11A1 through U11AB. U11A0 specifically identifies CMU01. The supplied evidence establishes that the BMU records this code after the stated timeout check condition; it does not establish a component-level root cause from the excerpts provided.

3. What system is affected?

Battery Management Unit (BMU) communication with CMU01. The expanded name of CMU is not established by the supplied verified evidence.
