CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM Open in One Side of CAN Branch Line

DESCRIPTION

If some ECUs and sensors are not displayed on the "Communication Bus Check" screen of the intelligent tester and some ECUs and sensors repeatedly appear and disappear on the screen when the CAN main bus wires are normal (there is no open, short, short to +B or short to GND in the main bus wires), there may be an open circuit in either of the CAN branch wires.

Tech Tips

If some ECUs and sensors repeatedly appear and disappear on the "Communication Bus Check" screen, communication between the normal ECUs and sensors and the intelligent tester may be affected by the incomplete signals that are output from the ECU that has an open circuit in either of its CAN branch wires. In this case, the CAN branch wires for the ECUs and sensors that repeatedly appear and disappear from the screen are normal and the ECU that is not displayed on the screen may be the main cause of the problem (this ECU may have an open circuit in either of its CAN branch wires).

Symptom Trouble Area
2 or more ECUs and/or sensors repeatedly appear and disappear on the "Communication Bus Check" screen of the intelligent tester.

One side of a pair of CAN branch wires is open for the affected system


  • Steering column assembly (Power steering ECU)

  • Brake actuator assembly (Skid control ECU)

  • Spiral cable sub-assembly (Steering sensor)

  • Yaw rate sensor

  • Center airbag sensor assembly

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note


  • Turn the ignition switch off before measuring the resistances of the CAN main wire and the CAN branch wire.

  • After the ignition 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 ignition switch, any other switches or the doors. If doors need to be opened in order to check connectors, open the doors and leave them open.

Tech Tips


  • Operating the ignition switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.

  • Perform the following inspection for the ECUs (sensors) which are not displayed on the intelligent tester. If a malfunction cannot be identified, perform the following inspections for the ECUs (sensors) connected to the CAN communication system.

  • Do not remove the combination meter assembly (combination meter ECU) and ECM, as they are the end parts of the circuit. If removed, CAN communication will not be possible.

  • The open circuit confirmation of the combination meter assembly (combination meter ECU), ECM and main wire is performed in the CHECK CAN BUS LINE procedure of How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. This inspection only has procedures for checking for an open circuit on one side of the CAN branch wire.
