CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note:

  • Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the power 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 (-) auxiliary battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.

  • After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work (Click here).

  • 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).

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

  • DTC check procedure: Turn the power switch on (IG), turn the cruise control main switch on, turn the blind spot monitor main switch on, wait at least 60 seconds and then drive the vehicle at a speed of 36 km/h (22 mph) or more for 7 seconds 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).

  • If the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) is replaced, refer to Service Bulletin.

Tip:

  • Operating the power switch, any other switches or a door triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.

  • 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.

  • Connectors that connect to the CAN junction connector can be distinguished by the color of their CAN bus lines. When the connectors have been disconnected from the CAN junction connector, reconnecting the connectors to non-original positions on the CAN junction connector does not affect system performance. However, it is preferred to reconnect the connectors to their original positions to avoid negative effects on the wiring such as tension on the wiring harnesses, and to make future maintenance easier.

      Do not reconnect the disconnected connectors until this inspection is complete because there may be a short in 2 or more branch lines.

      Result
      Symptom Proceed to
      The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG), or the resistance between 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) is still below 200 Ω when all the specified connectors are disconnected from the CAN junction connector. (There is a short to GND in the CAN main bus lines between the CAN junction connector LH1 and CAN junction connector RH1.) A
      The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG), or the resistance between 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) becomes normal (200 Ω or more) when a connector is disconnected from the CAN junction connector. (There is a short to GND in one of the areas that relate to the disconnected bus lines.) B

    4. When there is a short to GND in one or more of the bus lines that connect to an ECU (or sensor):


      1. Reconnect all of the connectors to the CAN junction connectors, except for the one that was disconnected last (the bus line that is shorted to GND). Check that the resistance shown on the tester is normal (200 Ω or more) to confirm that there is a short to GND in the one branch line only.

        Tip:

        • Connectors that connect to the CAN junction connector can be distinguished by the color of their CAN bus lines.

        • Reconnecting the connectors to non-original positions on the CAN junction connector does not affect system performance. However, it is preferred to reconnect the connectors to their original positions to avoid negative effects on the wiring such as tension on the wiring harnesses, and to make future maintenance easier.

    5. When there is no short to GND in any of the bus lines that connect to the ECUs and sensors:


      1. With all the specified connectors for ECUs and sensors disconnected, proceed with the inspection of the CAN bus main lines between the CAN junction connector LH1 and CAN junction connector RH1.

    CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS LINE (ECU, SENSOR)


    1. Reconnect the connector of the bus line that is shorted to GND to the CAN junction connector (the connector that caused the bus line resistance to change to 200 Ω or more when it was disconnected).

    2. A000965E03

      Disconnect the connector that includes the DLC3 connected CAN lines (such as CANH and CANL) from the ECU (or sensor) to which the bus line shorted to GND is connected (Click here).

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      H29-6 (CANH) - H29-4 (CG) Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal 200 Ω or higher
