DESCRIPTION
There may be a short circuit between one of the CAN bus wires and GND when there is no resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG) or 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
| Symptom | Trouble Area |
|---|---|
| No resistance exists between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG) or 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) of DLC3. |

*1: w/ AFS
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Turn the engine switch off before measuring the resistances of the CAN main wires and the CAN branch wires.
After the engine switch is turned off, check that the key reminder warning system and light reminder warning system are not in operation.
Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle as is for at least 1 minute and do not operate the engine switch, any other switches or doors. If any doors need to be opened in order to check the connectors, open the doors and leave them open.
Operating the engine 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 will help determine the cause of the malfunction.
PROCEDURE
CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS WIRE (DLC3 BRANCH WIRE)
Turn the engine switch off.
Disconnect the CAN branch wire connector (G66) from the CAN No. 1 junction connector RH (w/o earth terminal).

CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 1 J/C RH)
Connect the probes of an ohmmeter to terminals CANH and CANL of the DLC3.

While observing the resistance value shown on the tester, disconnect connector (G65) from the CAN No. 1 junction connector RH one by one until the resistance becomes normal (200 Ω or higher).
Disconnect the branch wire connectors other than those of the DLC3.

When there is a short to GND in one or more of the branch wires:
Reconnect all of the connectors to the CAN junction connector, except for the one that was disconnected last (the bus wire that is shorted to GND). Check that the resistance shown on the tester becomes normal (200 Ω or higher) to confirm that there is a short to GND in the only one branch wire.
The shape of connectors connected to the CAN junction connector which has an earth terminal is the same. The connectors connected to the CAN junction connector can be distinguished by the colors of the bus wire and the connecting side of the junction connector.
Reconnecting the connectors to non-specified positions on the CAN junction connector does not affect system operation. However, it is preferred to reconnect the connectors to their specified positions to avoid negative effects on the wiring such as tension on the wiring harnesses, and to make future maintenance easier.
