CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FAIL-SAFE CHART


  1. FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION


    1. When communication fails in any of the CAN bus lines (communication lines), a fail-safe function(s) will operate. The fail-safe function that is specified for each system operates to prevent those systems from malfunctioning.

    2. The following table shows the effects on each system when communication is impossible. (For further details, see the pages for each system.)

As a result, leveling control does not follow the changes in pitch angle. In this case, the headlights may dazzle oncoming vehicles.

      • When an error occurs in the vehicle speed sensor waveform cycle during deceleration, the system will judge that the vehicle is being driven at a constant speed because the detected vehicle speed does not change. As a result, leveling control does not follow the changes in pitch angle. In this case, visible distance shortens.

      • When an error occurs in the vehicle speed sensor waveform cycle during acceleration or deceleration, the headlights will not swivel smoothly because the detected vehicle speed changes suddenly.
