Inspection Procedure

NOTE:
  • Turn the ignition switch off before measuring the resistance of CAN bus main wires and the CAN bus branch wires.
  • 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 any doors need to be opened in order to check the connectors, open the doors and leave them open.

HINT:

  1. CHECK DLC3 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFIED CONDITIONS

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition

      NOTE: When the measured value is 132 Ω or higher and a CAN communication system diagnostic trouble code is output, there may be a fault besides disconnection of the DLC3 branch wire. For that reason, troubleshooting should be performed again from "HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING" (See HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING  ) after repairing the trouble area.

      NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BRANCH WIRE CONNECTED TO DLC3 

      OK: Go to Next Step 

  2. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS MAIN WIRE (CAN NO. 2 JUNCTION CONNECTOR) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

      NG: Go to step  5

      OK: Go to Next Step 

  3. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS MAIN WIRE 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.
    2. Reconnect the CAN No. 2 junction connector.
    3. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    4. Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
