DESCRIPTION
There may be a short circuit between one of the CAN bus wires and GND when no resistance exists between terminal 6 (CA3H) of the central gateway ECU and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3, or terminal 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
| Detection Item | Trouble Area |
|---|---|
| No resistance exists between terminal 6 (CA3H) of the central gateway ECU and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3, or terminal 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU and terminal 4 (CG) of the DLC3. |

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.
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.
After the repair, perform CAN Bus Check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed.
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
CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS WIRE (NO. 8 CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR)
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS WIRE (ECU, SENSOR)
| *a | Component with harness connected (Central Gateway ECU) |
| *b | Front view of DLC3 |
Reconnect the CAN junction connector.
Disconnect the connector that includes terminals CANH and CANL from the ECU or sensor to which the bus line shorted to GND is connected.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Tech Tips
If the resistance changes to 200 Ω or higher when the connector is disconnected from the ECU or sensor, there may be a short in the ECU or sensor.
