A2-A3:






Normal Operation
The ABS module communicates with the diagnostic tool through the high speed controller area network (CAN), circuits 1847 (WH/OG) and 1848 (PK/OG). Check the high speed CAN circuits 1847 (WH/OG) and 1848 (PK/OG) between the ABS module C135 and the data link connector (DLC) C251. The total resistance values must not be more than 5 ohms. If the resistance is more than 5 ohms there is an open in one of the CAN circuits, damage to the DLC C251, damage to the ABS module C135, or a problem in an in-line connector.

Possible Causes
- high speed CAN circuit 1847 (WH/OG) open
- high speed CAN circuit 1848 (PK/OG) open
- ABS module
- ABS module C135
