CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note


  • Because the order of diagnosis is important to allow correct diagnosis, make sure to begin troubleshooting using How to Proceed with Troubleshooting when CAN communication system related DTCs are output Click here.

  • Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the ignition switch off and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more without operating the key, 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 ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal notice before proceeding with work Click here.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

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

  • DTC check procedure: Drive the vehicle for 5.6 seconds at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mph) or more.

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

  • DTC check procedure: Turn the ignition switch to ON and wait at least 20 seconds.

  • The vehicle is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) which includes components such as airbags. Before servicing (including removal or installation of parts), be sure to read the Precaution in the SRS Click here.

Tech Tips


  • Operating the ignition switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.

  • 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 OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY CAN BRANCH WIRE)

      (to Center Airbag Sensor Assembly)

      Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and wait for at least 90 seconds.

    2. Disconnect the airbag sensor assembly connector Click here.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E47-13 (CANH) - E47-22 (CANL) Cable disconnected from negative (-) battery terminal 54 to 69 Ω

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BRANCH WIRE CONNECTED TO AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY (CANH, CANL)

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)

      Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

      Note

      When connecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.

    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      E47-21 (IG2) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E47-25 (E1) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      E47-26 (E2) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

    OK

    REPLACE AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY Click here

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
