CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

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.

  • 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.

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

  • DTC check procedure: Turn the ignition switch to ON, wait for 1 minute or more. Then operate the suspected malfunctioning system and drive the vehicle at 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for 5 minutes 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 as normal.

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 (SPIRAL CABLE WITH STEERING ANGLE SENSOR BRANCH WIRE)


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

      (to spiral cable with steering angle sensor)

      Disconnect the spiral cable with steering angle sensor connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G205-3 (CANH) - G205-2 (CANL) Cable disconnected from negative (-) battery terminal 54 to 69 Ω

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BUS BRANCH WIRE OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)

      (to Spiral Cable with Steering Angle Sensor)

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G205-1 (ESS) - Body ground Cable disconnected from negative (-) battery terminal Below 1 Ω

    2. Reconnect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

      Note

      When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G205-5 (BAT) - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V
      G205-4 (IG) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V
      Ignition switch off Below 1 V

    OK
