Using the HDS (Preferred method)

  1. Go to B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A to check for "Connected units" and DTCs (see «TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A»(ref-255545-S17855756892007060300000) ).
  2. If no DTCs are retrieved, go to «B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE C»(ref-255545-S31922710922007060300000) (see ) or D (see «TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE D»(ref-255545-S08133960852007060300000) ).

Without HDS (Use only if the HDS is unavailable)

  1. Check for communication circuit problems using B-CAN System Diagnostic Test (see «TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE 1 AND TEST MODE 2 (WITHOUT THE HDS)»(ref-255545-S00787912052007060300000) ).
  2. Check for DTCs.
  3. Sort, and then troubleshoot the DTCs in the order below. 1 Battery voltage DTCs 2 Internal error DTCs 3 Loss of communication DTCs (beginning with the lowest number first; for example, if B1008 and B1011 are retrieved, troubleshoot B1008 first) 4 Signal error DTCs
  4. If no DTCs are retrieved, use B-CAN System Diagnostic Test Mode 2 to check all inputs related to failure (see step 10 «TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE 1 AND TEST MODE 2 (WITHOUT THE HDS)»(ref-255545-S00787912052007060300000) ).

How to display DTCs on the gauge control module (tach)

While in Test Mode 1, the DTCs which have been detected and stored individually by various B-CAN (Body-controller Area Network) units, will be shown one by one on the odometer display when the communication between the MICU and the gauge control module is normal. To scroll through the DTCs, press the select/reset button.

Scheme 7: How to display DTCs on the gauge control module (tach)

The unit that has stored the code can be identified by the number shown on the multi-information display.

MICU REFERENCE

Body Controller Area Network (B-CAN) and Fast Controller Area Network (F-CAN)

The body controller area network (B-CAN) and the fast controller area network (F-CAN) share information between multiple electronic control units (ECUs). B-CAN communication moves at a slower speed (33.33 kbps) for convenience related items and for other functions. F-CAN information moves at a faster speed (500 kbps) for "real time" functions such as fuel and emissions data. To allow both systems to share information, the gauge control module translates information from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN.This is called the gateway Function.

Scheme 8

Scheme 8: Body Controller Area Network (B-CAN) and Fast Controller Area Network (F-CAN)
  1. The single wire method is used between the units not requiring the communication to move at a fast speed.
  2. Using a single wire method reduces the number of the wires used on the body controller area network.

Gateway Function

The gauge control module (tach) acts as a gateway to allow both systems to share information, the gauge control module translates information from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN.

Scheme 9: Gateway Function

Network "Loss of Communication" Error Checking Function

The ECUs on the CAN circuit send messages to each other. If there are any malfunctions on the network, the odo/trip display on the gauge control module can indicate the error messages by entering the gauge self-diagnostic function (see SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION ).

Scheme 10

Wake-up and Sleep Function

The multiplex integrated control system has "wake-up" and "sleep" functions to decrease parasitic draw on the battery when the ignition switch is OFF.

  1. In the sleep mode, the MICU stops functioning (communication and CPU control) when it is not necessary for the system to operate.
  2. As soon as any operation is requested (for example, a door is unlocked), the related control unit in the sleep mode immediately wakes up and begins to function.
  3. When the ignition switch is turned OFF, and the driver's door is opened, then closed, there is a delay about 40 seconds before the control unit goes from the wake-up mode to the sleep mode.
  4. The sleep mode will not function if any door is opened or if a key is in the ignition.
  5. The draw is reduced from 200 mA to less than 35 mA when in the sleep mode.

Note. Sleep and Wake-up Mode Test (see SLEEP AND WAKE-UP MODE TEST ).

Fail-safe Function

To prevent improper operation, the MICU has a fail-safe function. In the fail-safe mode, the output signal is fixed when any part of the system malfunctions (for example, a faulty control unit or communication line). Each control unit has a hardware fail-safe function that fixes the output signal when there is a CPU malfunction, and a software fail-safe function that ignores the signal from a malfunctioning control unit, which allows the system to operate normally.

When a CPU problem or a abnormal power supply voltage is detected, the MICU moves to the hardware fail-safe mode, and each system output load is set to the pre-programmed fail-safe value.

Software Fail-safe Control

When any of the data from the B-CAN circuit cannot be received within a specified time, or an unusual combination of the data is recognized, the MICU moves to the software fail-safe mode. The data that cannot be received is forced to a pre-programmed value.

Power Supply Voltage Monitoring Function

The MICU monitors the power supply voltage (back-up voltage). If the voltage goes below 10 V, the MICU sends a MICU message and will not store DTCs.

HDS Inputs and Commands

Certain inputs happen so quickly that the HDS cannot update fast enough. Hold the switch that is being tested while monitoring the Data List.

This should give the HDS time to update the signal on the Data List.

Because the HDS software is updated to support the release for newer vehicles it is not uncommon to see system function tests that are not supported.

Make sure that the most current software is loaded.

UNIT NOT COMMUNICATING

Troubleshooting - B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode C

Perform this diagnosis if a component that is controlled by the B-CAN system does not stop or turn off.

Note. If the component does not turn on, go to B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE D . See the B-CAN system unit input/output index for a list of input and output devices and the control units that monitor the input and controls the output devices (see HDS INPUTS AND COMMANDS ). Always cycle the ignition switch within 3 seconds when prompted in the DTC troubleshooting procedures in this section.

  1. Check for DTCs by selecting the TEST MODE menu from the HDS. Are any DTCs indicated? YES - Go to B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A (see «TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A»(ref-255545-S17855756892007060300000) ). NO - Go to step 2.
  2. Turn off the switch that controls the malfunctioning component.
  3. Select DATA LIST from the TEST MODE menu, and check the input of the switch that controls the component. Does the HDS indicate the switch is OFF? YES - Go to step 4. NO - Go to step 6 .
  4. In the DATA LIST, check the output signal of the malfunctioning component. Is the output signal OFF? YES - Go to step 5. NO - Replace the control unit that controls the device that will not turn OFF.
  5. Check the relay, if applicable, then check for a short in the wire between the relay and the component, the relay and control unit, or the component and control unit. Are the relay and the wire harness OK? YES - Replace the control unit that controls the component that will not turn OFF. NO - Replace the relay or repair the wire harness.
  6. Check the switch, then check for a short in the wire between the switch and the control unit that monitors the switch. Is the switch and wire harness OK ? YES - Replace the control unit that monitors the switch. NO - Replace the switch or repair the wire harness.

Troubleshooting - B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode D

Perform this diagnosis if a component that is controlled by the B-CAN system does not run or come on.
