54 -CHASSIS ELECTRICAL > 54C-CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) > TROUBLESHOOTING<CAN><CAN> > CAN BUS DIAGNOSIS > DIAGNOSIS ITEM 1
Diagnosis Item 1: Communication with no ECUs is possible (CAN-C).
 
 
cautionWhen servicing a CAN bus line, earth yourself by touching a metal object such as an unpainted water pipe. If you fail to do, a component connected to the CAN bus line may be broken.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • Malfunction in CAN-C (short to earth or power supply, wire short to one another)
  • Malfunction in the ECUs which are interconnected via CAN-C (internal error)
  • Malfunction (open circuit) of wiring harness, connector (s) between the diagnosis connector and joint connector(s)
 
 
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. Check the CAN-C for short to power supply. Voltage measurement at diagnosis connector.
cautionA digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to .
cautionThe test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to .
(1) Connect the negative battery terminal, and turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Voltage between diagnosis connector terminal No.6 (CAN_H) and body earth
OK: Less than 4.0 V
(3) Voltage between diagnosis connector terminal No.14 (CAN_L) and body earth
OK: Less than 4.0 V
Is the check result normal?
YES <Voltage is less than 4.0 V in both CAN_H and CAN_L> : Go to Step 2.
NO <Voltage is 4.0 V or more in either CAN_H or CAN_L> : Perform diagnosis item 2 "Diagnose shorts in the power supply to CAN-C". Refer to .
 
STEP 2. Check the CAN-C for short to earth. Resistance measurement at diagnosis connector.
cautionA digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to .
cautionThe test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to .
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(2)
cautionWhen measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer to .
Ensure that the negative battery terminal is disconnected.
(3) Resistance between diagnosis connector terminal No.6 (CAN_H) and body earth
OK: 1 kΩ or more
(4) Resistance between diagnosis connector terminal No.14 (CAN_L) and body earth
OK: 1 kΩ or more
Is the check result normal?
YES <Resistance value is 1 kΩ or more in both CAN_H and CAN_L> : Go to Step 3.
NO <Resistance value is less than 1 kΩ in either CAN_H or CAN_L> : Perform diagnosis item 3 "Diagnose shorts in the earth to CAN-C". Refer to .
 
STEP 3. Check the CAN-C for short to each other. Resistance measurement at diagnosis connector.
cautionA digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to .
cautionThe test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to .
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(2)
cautionWhen measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer to .
Ensure that the negative battery terminal is disconnected.
(3) Resistance between diagnosis connector terminal Nos.6 and 14
OK: 60 ± 10 Ω
Is the check result normal?
YES : The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
NO <Resistance value is less than 60 ± 10 Ω> : Perform diagnosis Item 4 "Diagnose shorts between CAN_H and L lines (CAN-C)". Refer to .
NO <Resistance value is 1 kΩ or more> : Check the wires between diagnosis connector and joint connector (CAN1) for open circuit, and check the terminal resistors in the engine-ECU and the ETACS-ECU for open circuit. Then repair or replace if necessary.
