CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM Check Bus 3 Lines for Short Circuit

DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between the bus 3 main lines and/or bus 3 branch lines when the resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of the network gateway ECU is below 54 Ω.

Symptom Trouble Area
Resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of network gateway ECU is below 54 Ω.

  • Short in CAN main bus line

  • Short in CAN branch line

  • Telematics transceiver (w/ Manual (SOS) Switch)

  • Radio receiver assembly

  • Network gateway ECU

  • Option connector (Bus buffer ECU) (w/ Option Connector (Bus Buffer ECU))

  • No. 6 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) and wait for at least 31 seconds.

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

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 IN CAN BUS LINES (NO. 6 CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR)


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

      Tech Tips

      If the resistance becomes normal (between 54 and 69 Ω) when the connector is disconnected from the ECU or sensor, there may be a short in the ECU or sensor.
