CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS LINE

2AD-FHV CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (for RHD) - Short to GND in CAN Bus Line

DESCRIPTION

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.

SymptomsTrouble Area
The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG), or terminals 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3 is below 1 kΩ.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS LINE
2Ad-Fhv Can Communication System (For Rhd) - Short To Gnd In Can Bus Line. CAN COMMUNICATION. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Turn the engine switch off.

Disconnect the DLC3 branch line connector (J94) from the CAN RH J/C A side (with earth terminal).

  • NOTICE:
Before disconnecting the connector, make a note of where it is connected.
Reconnect the connector to its original position.

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

  • Standard resistance:
  • Tester ConnectionConditionSpecified Value
    J21-6 (CANH) - J21-4 (CG)Engine switch off1 MΩ or higher
    J21-14 (CANL) - J21-4 (CG)Engine switch off1 MΩ or higher

2.RECONNECT CONNECTOR

Reconnect the DLC3 branch line connector (J94) to the CAN RH J/C A side (with earth terminal).

3.CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS LINE
2Ad-Fhv Can Communication System (For Rhd) - Short To Gnd In Can Bus Line. CAN COMMUNICATION. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Disconnect connectors from the CAN LH J/C or CAN RH J/C one at a time.

  • HINT:
  • Disconnect the ECU and sensor connectors other than the DLC3 branch lines and CAN main bus lines between the CAN LH J/C and CAN RH J/C.

Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG), and between terminals 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3 each time a connector is disconnected.

  • NOTICE:
  • Do not reconnect the disconnected connectors until this inspection is complete because there may be a short to GND in 2 or more CAN bus lines.
  • Result:
  • SymptomProceed to
    The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG), or the resistance between 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) is still below 1 kΩ when all the specified connectors are disconnected from the CAN J/C. (There is a short to GND in the CAN main bus lines between the CAN LH J/C and CAN RH J/C.)A
    The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 4 (CG), or the resistance between 14 (CANL) and 4 (CG) becomes normal (1 kΩ or more) when a connector is disconnected from the CAN J/C. (There is a short to GND in one of the areas that relate to the disconnected bus lines.)B

When there is a short to GND in one or more of the bus lines that connect to an ECU (or sensor):


Reconnect all of the connectors to the CAN J/C, except for the one that was disconnected last (the bus line that is shorted to GND). Check that the resistance shown on the tester is normal (1 kΩ or more) to confirm that there is a short to GND in one branch line only.

  • HINT:
The connectors connected to the CAN J/C can be distinguished according to the color of the communication bus lines and the shape of the connectors.
Reconnecting the connectors to non-specified positions on the CAN J/C does not affect system operation. However, it is preferred to reconnect the connectors to their specified positions to avoid negative effects on the wiring such as tension on the wiring harnesses, and to make future maintenance easier.

REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN MAIN BUS LINE (CAN LH J/C - CAN RH J/C)

4.RECONNECT CONNECTOR

Reconnect the connector of the bus line that is shorted to GND to the CAN J/C (the connector that caused the bus line resistance to change to 1 kΩ or more when it was disconnected).

5.CHECK FOR SHORT TO GND IN CAN BUS LINE
2Ad-Fhv Can Communication System (For Rhd) - Short To Gnd In Can Bus Line. CAN COMMUNICATION. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Disconnect the connector that includes terminals CANH and CANL from the ECU (or sensor) to which the bus line shorted to GND is connected.

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

  • Standard resistance:
  • Tester ConnectionConditionSpecified Value
    J21-6 (CANH) - J21-4 (CG)Engine switch off1 MΩ or higher
    J21-14 (CANL) - J21-4 (CG)Engine switch off1 MΩ or higher
  • HINT:
  • If the resistance changes to 1 kΩ or higher when the connector is disconnected from the ECU (or sensor), there may be a short in the ECU (or sensor).
