NETWORKING: CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM: Short to B+ in CAN Bus Line
- Short to B+ in CAN Bus Line

DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between the CAN bus lines and +B when the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 16 (BAT) or terminals 14 (CANL) and 16 (BAT) of the DLC3 is below 6 kOhms.





* *: w/ Smart Key System

WIRING DIAGRAM









INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT
Operating the ignition switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.

PROCEDURE

1. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal before measuring the resistance of the CAN main wire and CAN branch wire.

CAUTION:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

NOTICE:
When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Repair Instruction - Initialization.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK FOR SHORT TO B+ IN CAN BUS WIRE (DLC3 CAN BRANCH WIRE)

(a) Disconnect the C65 No. 2 junction connector.





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

Standard Resistance:
