CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM(w/ Toyota Safety Sense) Check Bus 2 Line for Short to +B

DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between one of the CAN bus lines and +B when no resistance exists between terminal 18 (CA4H) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3, or terminal 17 (CA4L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3.

Symptom Trouble Area
No resistance exists between terminal 18 (CA4H) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3, or terminal 17 (CA4L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • Turn the ignition switch off before measuring the resistances of the CAN main wire and the CAN branch wire.

  • After the ignition switch is turned off, check that the key reminder warning system and light reminder warning system are not in operation.

  • Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle as is for at least 1 minute and do not operate the ignition switch, any other switches or the doors. If doors need to be opened in order to check connectors, open the doors and leave them open.

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. CHECK FOR SHORT TO +B IN CAN BUS LINE (NO. 2 JUNCTION CONNECTOR)


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

    2. Disconnect the No. 2 junction connector.

  4. CHECK FOR SHORT TO +B IN CAN BUS LINE (ECU, SENSOR)


    1. Reconnect all wire harness connectors (No. 1 junction connector and No. 2 junction connector).

    2. Disconnect the ECU or sensor connected to the CAN bus line that is shorted to +B.

      Tech Tips

      If the ECU or sensor has multiple connectors, disconnect the connector that includes the CAN bus lines. To determine the ECU or sensor that is connected to the shorted bus line, refer to the terminals of ECU tables Click here.
