Hybrid Control System
HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM: U0028-437,U0037-438: Vehicle Communication Bus "A"
U0037-438 - Vehicle Communication Bus "B"
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a serial data communication system for real-time application. It is a multiplex communication system designed for on-vehicle use that provides a superior communication speed of 500 kbps and a capability to detect malfunctions.
The hybrid vehicle control ECU sends and receives data to and from ECUs connected to the V1 bus and V2 bus. If a communication error occurs between the hybrid vehicle control ECU and one of these ECUs, the hybrid vehicle control ECU stores a DTC.
