Multiplex Integrated Control System (V6): Other Honda Crosstour I

Using the HDS (Preferred method)

Connect the HDS to the Data Link Connector (DLC).

There are two ways to read B-CAN code with the HDS

1. First method: If multiple DTCs are stored, be sure to follow the instructions in B-CAN system diagnosis. Test Mode A (see «TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A»(ref-360108-S37049833192010042600000) ).
2. Second method: If no DTCs are retrieved, use B-CAN System Diagnostic Test Mode 2 (see ) to check all inputs related to failure.

How to Display DTCs on the Gauge Control Module

Enter B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode 1 (see ). While in Test Mode 1, when communication between the MICU and gauge control module is normal 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 odo/trip display. To scroll through the DTCs, press the SEL/RESET button.

Scheme 10

The control unit that has stored the code can be identified by the number shown on the odo/trip display.

CONTROL UNIT 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 (125 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 and relays the information from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN. This is called the Gateway Function.

Scheme 11

Gateway Function

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

Scheme 12

Network "Loss of Communication" Error Checking Function

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

Self-Diagnostic Function (On-board diagnosis)

By connecting the HDS to the data link connector (DLC), the HDS can retrieve the diagnostic information from the driver's MICU via a diagnostic line called the K-LINE. The K-LINE is a separate communication line from the CAN lines, and is connected to most of the CAN related ECUs. The driver's MICU is a gateway between the HDS and B-CAN related ECUs, and sends B-CAN diagnostic information to the HDS. When doing a function test with the HDS, the HDS sends an output signal through the K-LINE to the driver's MICU. The driver's MICU either relays the request to another ECU, or commands the function itself.

Scheme 13

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 in LOCK (0).

1. In the sleep mode, the multiplex integrated control system 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 units in the sleep mode immediately wake up and begin to function.
3. When the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0) and the driver's door is opened, then closed, there is a delay of 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 or the tailgate is open, or if a key is in the ignition switch.

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.

Hardware Fail-Safe Control

When a CPU problem or a abnormal power supply voltage is detected, the MICUs move 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 data from the B-CAN circuit cannot be received within a specified time, or if an unusual combination of data is recognized, the MICU switches to its fail-safe mode, which uses a pre-programmed value.

Power Supply Voltage Monitoring Function

The driver's MICU monitors the power supply voltage (back-up voltage). If the voltage goes below 10 V, the driver's MICU will not store a DTC.

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 of newer vehicles it is not uncommon to see system function tests that are not supported.

Make sure that the most current software is loaded.
