Diagnosis Procedure
NOTE:
•Perform CAN Communication Check:M16A Model before performing this flow.
•Occurrence of multiple troubles is not included in the scope of this trouble diagnosis.
When “Lost Communication” is detected in any control module, perform diagnosis according to the following procedure.
1)Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC.
2)Set ignition “ON”.
3)Select “Communication Bus Check” menu of SUZUKI scan tool and check for communication-disabled control module / sensor (it is not displayed).
4)Based on above check results, select applicable diagnosis flow ([a] to [w]) from Diagnosis Flow Selection Table.
5)Perform troubleshooting according to selected diagnosis flow.
Diagnosis Flow Selection Table
NOTE:
•If an individual control module or sensor fails to communicate, check whether power supply circuit or ground circuit of control module or sensor is in good condition, referring to system circuit diagram, etc. before diagnosing trouble with flow chart.
•If it is not possible to select suitable diagnosis flow from “Diagnosis Flow Selection Table” or “two or more diagnosis flows are selectable”, perform Troubleshooting for Communication Bus Off:M16A Model.
•Diagnosis flows [a] to [w] link with CAN communication lines [a] to [w] of Circuit Diagram.
