Title: NETWORKING: CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

Open in CAN Main Wire

DESCRIPTION

There may be an open circuit in the CAN main wire and/or DLC3 branch wire when the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 14 (CANL) of the DLC3 is 69 Ω or higher.

Symptom

Trouble Area

Resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 14 (CANL) of DLC3 is 69 Ω or higher.

  • CAN main wire and connector
  • No. 1 junction connector
  • No. 2 junction connector
  • No. 3 junction connector
  • ECM
  • Combination meter assembly
  • DLC3 branch wire or connector

WIRING DIAGRAM



INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

Operating the engine switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.

PROCEDURE

1.

DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal before measuring the resistances of the main wire and the branch wire.

CAUTION:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

2.

CHECK DLC3


(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Proceed to

E22-6 (CANH) - E22-14 (CANL)

Engine switch off

108 to 132 Ω

NOTICE:

When the measured value is 132 Ω or higher and a CAN communication system diagnostic trouble code is output, there may be a fault besides disconnection of the DLC3 branch wire. For that reason, troubleshooting should be performed again from "How to Proceed with Troubleshooting" NETWORKING: CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM: HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING (2008 LX570) after repairing the trouble area.
