INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle as is for at least 1 minute and do not operate the engine switch, any other switches, or the doors. If any doors need to be opened in order to check connectors, open the doors and leave them open.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN NO. 1 BUS WIRE (DLC3 BRANCH WIRE)

(a) Turn the engine switch off.





(b) Disconnect DLC3 branch wire connector E44 from the CAN No. 2 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.

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





Standard resistance:





(d) Reconnect DLC3 branch wire connector E44 to the CAN No. 2 J/C "A" side (with earth terminal).

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE DLC3 BRANCH WIRE OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN NO. 1 BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 2 J/C SIDE)

(a) Disconnect CAN main bus wire connector E42 from the CAN No. 2 J/C "A" side (with earth terminal).





(b) Connect the probes of an ohmmeter to terminals 6 (CANH) and 14 (CANL) of the DLC3.





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

Standard resistance:





OK -- CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN NO. 1 BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 5 J/C - CAN NO. 2 J/C)
NG -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN NO. 1 BUS WIRE (CAN NO. 2 J/C BRANCH WIRE)

(a) Reconnect CAN main bus wire connector E42 to the CAN No. 2 J/C "A" side (with earth terminal).

(b) Connect the probes of an ohmmeter to terminals 6 (CANH) and 14 (CANL) of the DLC3.





(c) While observing the resistance value shown on the tester, disconnect connectors E43, E45, E46, and E47 from the CAN No. 2 J/C one by one until the resistance becomes normal (between 54 and 69 Ohms).

HINT
Disconnect the branch wire connectors other than those of the DLC3.

















NOTICE:
Do not reconnect the disconnected connectors until this inspection is complete because there may be a short in 2 or more branch wires.

Result:





(d) When there is a short in one or more of the branch wires:

(1) Reconnect all of the connectors to the CAN No. 2 J/C, except for the one that was disconnected last (the short-circuited bus wire). Check that the resistance shown on the tester is normal (between 54 and 69 Ohms) to confirm that there is a short in one branch wire only.

HINT
* The connectors connected to the CAN No. 2 J/C can be distinguished according to the color of the communication bus wires and the shape of the connectors.
* Reconnecting the connectors to non-specified positions on the CAN No. 2 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.
