Open in CAN Main Bus Line: Procedure

  1. CHECK DLC3 
    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      E15-6 (CANH) - E15-14 (CANL) Ignition switch off 108 to 132 Ω
      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 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.
