Open in CAN Main Bus Line: Procedure

  1. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (DLC3 BRANCH WIRE) 
    1. Turn the power switch off.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L61-6 (CANH) - L61-14 (CANL) Power switch off 108 to 132 Ω
      Callouts For Fig. 110

      *1 DLC3
      NOTE:

      When the measured value is 133 Ω or higher and a CAN communication system DTC 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 . Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING .

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BRANCH WIRE CONNECTED TO DLC3 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the ECM connector.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      A57-13 (CANH) - A57-5 (CANL) Power switch off 108 to 132 Ω

    NG → See step   3 

    OK → See step   7 

  3. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (COMBINATION METER) 
    1. Reconnect the ECM connector.
    2. Disconnect the combination meter connector.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L27-10 (CANH) - L27-11 (CANL) Power switch off 108 to 132 Ω

    NG → See step   4 

    OK → See step   8 

  4. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 1 J/C) 
    1. Reconnect the combination meter connector.
    2. Disconnect the CAN No. 1 junction connector.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L94-1 (CANH) - L94-12 (CANL) Power switch off 108 to 132 Ω

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BUS MAIN WIRE OR CONNECTOR (CAN NO. 1 J/C - COMBINATION METER) 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 1 J/C - CAN NO. 2 J/C) 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      (to CAN No. 1 Junction Connector)
      *2 to CAN No. 2 Junction Connector

    NG → See step   6 

    OK → REPLACE CAN NO. 1 JUNCTION CONNECTOR 

  6. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 2 J/C) 
    1. Reconnect the CAN No. 1 junction connector.
    2. Disconnect the CAN No. 2 junction connector.
