Here are the actual codes I had before the guy at the trans shop cleared them (and the service engine soon light has not returned, yet):
P0442 Small Evap Leak (no biggee, used to it)
P0403 Fuel Level sensor slightly high/open (expected - fuel gauge has been squirrely - was dropping to zero intermittently, now it's reading high)
U1026 Loss Class 2 Comm (this is the one that concerned me - read somewhere that this was an indication of loss of comm between engine controller and trans controller)
U1041 Loss EBCM/EBTCM Comm
U1064 Loss BCM VTD DM PCM 2/or SBM data
Anyway - these could all have been set by the mechanic disconnecting the batt with the key on, and I don't think the U codes trip the service engine soon light - so when I got the recurring P0442, that tripped the light and THEN I noted that I couldn't read codes anymore (maybe a bad cable or maybe low batt voltage/pin 16 - but am hoping it's just the cable) - took it back to the shop and then the trans mech hooked up an $8K Snap-On super duper code reader - THAT'S when the U codes were noted along with the two P codes. Oh well. So far, the service engine soon light has not come back on - but I do know that I still cannot check codes (even for it to tell me there are none) as I still get the "must be connected to the vehicle" when I connect my Actron ScanTool. Will look into this further - thanks very much for your help!

U1026 is loss of class 2 serial data communication between the PCM & Transfer Case Shift Control Module (TCSCM). That was from them disconnecting the module on the transfer case while the key was on. The other U codes are from the key being left on & running the battery dead.
Heres a chart for U codes. U1XXX (different 3 digit numder for each individual module). U1024 whould be a TCM communication fault, but your PCM whould not set this code.
The $8000 dollar Snap-On Modus is a joke compared to my Tech II on GM cars & trucks.
I have a Snap-On MT2500 for everything non GM.
I tryed a Snap-On Solus for a month & sent it back.
