CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM(for RHD) SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


  1. BRIEF DESCRIPTION


    1. The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial data communication system for real time application. It is a vehicle multiplex communication system which has a high communication speed and the ability to detect malfunctions.

      B0019P6E22

    2. Using the CANH and CANL bus lines as a pair, CAN communication is performed using a voltage differential. (A base voltage is applied to the pair of lines and a voltage differential is created when communicating.)

    3. Many ECUs or sensors installed on the vehicle operate by sharing information and communicating with each other.

    4. The V bus has termination circuits with two resistors of 60 Ω, and the bus 2, bus 3, bus 5, sub bus 1 and local bus each have termination circuits with two resistors of 120 Ω.

    5. The CAN communication system is composed of 6 buses.

  2. DEFINITION OF TERMS


    1. Main bus


      1. The main bus is a wire harness between the two terminating resistors on the bus. This is the main bus in the CAN communication system.

    2. Branch


      1. A branch is a wire harness which diverges from the main bus to an ECU or sensor.

    3. Terminating resistors


      1. Two resistors of 120 Ω are installed in parallel across the ends of the CAN main bus lines. They are called terminating resistors. These resistors allow the changes of the voltage differential between the CAN bus lines to be accurately judged. To allow proper function of CAN communication, it is necessary to have both terminating resistors installed. Since the two resistors are installed in parallel, this results in a measurement of approximately 60 Ω.

  5. TROUBLESHOOTING REMARKS


    1. DTCs for the CAN communication system can be checked using the GTS. The DLC3 is connected to the CAN communication system, but no DTCs exist regarding problems in the DLC3 or the DLC3 main lines. If there is any trouble in the DLC3 or the DLC3 main lines, ECUs on the CAN cannot output DTCs to the GTS.

  7. HOW TO DISTINGUISH CONNECTOR OF CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR


    1. In the CAN communication system, the shape of connectors connected to the CAN junction connector which has a ground terminal is the same. The connectors connected to the CAN junction connector can be distinguished by the colors of the bus lines and the connecting side of the junction connector.
