INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (DLC3 BRANCH LINE) |
Turn the engine switch off.
Disconnect the DLC3 branch line connector (J8) from the CAN LH J/C B side (without earth terminal).
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 Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 1 MΩ or higher |
4.CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (GATEWAY ECU MAIN BUS LINE) |
Disconnect the gateway ECU main bus line connector (J84) from the CAN RH J/C B side (without earth terminal) .
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 Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 108 to 132 Ω |
- Result:
Symptom | Proceed to |
The resistance is still below 54 Ω when the gateway ECU connector is disconnected. (There are no shorts in the gateway ECU main bus lines.) | A |
The resistance falls within the specified range (between 108 and 132 Ω) (either of the terminating resistances is normal) when the gateway ECU connector is disconnected. (There is a short in the gateway ECU main bus lines.) | B |
5.CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (ECM MAIN BUS LINE) |
Disconnect the ECM main bus line connector (J2) from the CAN LH J/C A side (with earth terminal) .
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 Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 1 MΩ or higher |
- Measure the resistance with the gateway ECU main bus line connector (J84) disconnected.
- Result:
Symptom | Proceed to |
The resistance is still below 1 MΩ when the ECM connector is disconnected. (There are no shorts in the ECM main bus lines.) | A |
The resistance becomes 1 MΩ or more when the ECM connector is disconnected. (There is a short in the ECM main bus lines.) | B |
Disconnect the CAN main bus line connector (J7) from the CAN LH J/C B side (without earth terminal).
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 Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 1 MΩ or higher |
Reconnect the CAN main bus line connector (J7) to the CAN LH J/C B side (without earth terminal).
Disconnect the CAN main bus line connector (J81) from the CAN RH J/C A side (with earth terminal) .
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 Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 1 MΩ or higher |
NG | |

REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN MAIN BUS LINE (CAN LH J/C - CAN RH J/C) |
|
Reconnect the connector for the short-circuited branch line to the CAN J/C (the connector that caused the bus line resistance to become normal (between 54 and 69 Ω) when it was disconnected).
10.CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES |
Disconnect the connector that includes terminals CANH and CANL from the ECU (or sensor) to which the short-circuited branch line is connected.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 1 MΩ or higher |
- If the resistance becomes normal (between 54 and 69 Ω) when the connector is disconnected from the ECU (or sensor), there may be a short in the ECU (or sensor).
| REPAIR OR REPLACE CORRESPONDING ECU OR SENSOR BRANCH LINE OR CONNECTOR |
|
|
OK | |
| |
REPLACE CORRESPONDING ECU OR SENSOR |
|
Reconnect the gateway ECU main bus line connector (J84) to the CAN RH J/C B side (without earth terminal) .
12.CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (GATEWAY ECU) |
Disconnect the gateway ECU connector (J76).
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Value |
J21-6 (CANH) - J21-14 (CANL) | Engine switch off | 108 to 132 Ω |
- If the resistance becomes normal (between 108 to 132 Ω) when the connector is disconnected, there may be a short in the gateway ECU.
| REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN MAIN BUS LINE (GATEWAY ECU MAIN BUS LINE) |
|
|
Reconnect the ECM main bus line connector (J2) to the CAN LH J/C A side (with earth terminal).
14.CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (ECM) |
Disconnect the ECM connector (A5).
