Trouble Area

U0073

Control Module Communication Bus OFF

The condition that the bus OFF state occurs once or more within 0.1 seconds occurs 10 times in succession while the voltage at the IG1 terminal is between 10 and 17.4 V. (Sent signals cannot be received.)

CAN communication system

PROCEDURE

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)

    1. Using the GTS, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to a DTC.
