DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between the CAN bus lines and GND when the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG) or terminals 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3 is below 200 Ω.

Symptom Trouble Area
The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG) or terminals 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3 is below 200 Ω.
  • Short to GND

  • Brake actuator assembly (skid control ECU)

  • Spiral cable (steering angle sensor)

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

Operating the ignition 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


    1. 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.

      Note

      When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.
