When installing, make sure to twist them.
CAN bus lines are likely to be influenced by noise if the bus lines are not twisted.
- The difference in length of the CANL bus line and CANH bus line should be within 100 mm (3.937 in.).
- Leave approximately 80 mm (3.150 in.) loose in the twist around the connector.
b. Do not use bypass wiring between the connectors.
NOTE: The feature of the twisted wire harness will be lost if you use bypass wiring.
