Signal Too High. Permanent Fault

Signal too high. Permanent fault

Checking connectors and bus wire

Note! Remember that the CAN network is only a communications network. There are therefore no fuses, switches and sensors on the CAN bus. Check the resistance as described below (see references).

Note! To maintain the correct values the battery should be disconnected when measuring resistance.

Check the bus wire for a short circuit to voltage supply as described in Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault and for an open circuit as described in Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.

Hint: When checking for an open circuit, check if possible from the rear of the connector concerned so that it is not damaged.

Also check the intermediate connectors for contact resistance and oxidation as described in Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.

Hint: If the fault is found before all the wires below are checked, press Continue.

The following wires and connectors should be checked to locate the short circuit.

Wire between:
- electronic throttle module (ETM) 3 and engine control module (ECM) 37A.
electronic throttle module (ETM) 4 and engine control module (ECM) 55A.

Hint: After the repair it is necessary to check that the fault has been rectified.








- Ignition off.
- Connect connectors, install components, etc.
- Ignition on for at least 10 seconds.
Check that diagnostic trouble code status is showing Intermittent.





Is the status of the diagnostic trouble code Intermittent?

Yes - VERIFIED

No - VERIFICATION FAILED

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?

Yes - FAULT-TRACING FAILED

No - Attempt New Test
