CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM(for LHD) Check Bus 3 Line for Short to GND

DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between one of the CAN bus wires and GND when no resistance exists between terminal 6 (CA3H) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3, or terminal 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3.

Symptom Trouble Area
No resistance exists between terminal 6 (CA3H) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3, or terminal 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
  • Short to GND in bus 3 CAN main wires

  • Short to GND in bus 3 CAN branch wires

  • Central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU)

  • Radio receiver assembly

  • No. 8 CAN junction connector

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the engine switch off and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more without operating the key or any switches, or opening or closing the doors. After that, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.

  • After turning the engine switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

  • After performing repairs, perform the DTC check procedure and confirm that the DTCs are not output again.

  • DTC check procedure: Turn the engine switch on (IG), wait at least 60 seconds, and then drive the vehicle at a speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) or more for 5 minutes or more.

  • After the repair, perform the CAN bus check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed as normal.

Tech Tips


  • Operating the engine switch, any other switches or a door triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.

  • Even after DTCs are cleared, if a DTC is stored again after driving the vehicle for a while, the malfunction may be occurring due to vibration of the vehicle. In such a case, wiggling the ECUs or wire harness while performing the inspection below may help determine the cause of the malfunction.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS WIRE (CENTRAL GATEWAY ECU (NETWORK GATEWAY ECU) - NO. 8 CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR)


    1. Disconnect the cable from negative (-) battery terminal.

      Reconnect the CAN junction connector.

    2. Disconnect the connector that includes terminals CANH and CANL from the ECU or sensor to which the short to GND is connected.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      K66-6 (CA3H) - K16-4 (CG) Cable disconnected from negative (-) battery terminal 200 Ω or higher

      Tech Tips

      If the resistance changes to 200 Ω or higher when the connector is disconnected from the ECU or sensor, there may be a short in the ECU or sensor.
