If some ECUs and sensors are not displayed on the "Communication Bus Check" screen of the intelligent tester and some ECUs and sensors repeatedly appear and disappear from the screen when the CAN main bus lines are normal (there is no open, short, short to B+, or short to GND in the main bus lines), there may be an open circuit in either of the CAN branch lines.

A short to GND is suspected the CAN bus line when the resistance between terminals 4 (CG) and 6 (CANH), or terminals 4 (CG) and 14 (CANL) of the DLC3 is below 1 kΩ.

A short to B+ is suspected in the CAN bus line when the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 16 (BAT), or terminals 14 (CANL) and 16 (BAT) of the DLC3 is below 1 MΩ.

The CAN bus lines are considered to be shorted when the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 14 (CANL) of the DLC3 is below 54 Ω.

There may be an open circuit in the CAN main bus line and/or the DLC3 branch line when the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 14 (CANL) of the DLC3 is 69 Ω or more.

When any DTC for the CAN communication system is output, first measure the resistance between the terminals of the DLC3 to specify the trouble area. Then check that there is no short in the CAN main bus line, between the CAN bus lines, to B+, or to GND.
