SYMPTOM CHART

Note. When data link connector branch line is open, transmission and reception of CAN communication signals are not affected. Therefore, no symptoms occur. However, be sure to repair malfunctioning circuit. When data link connector branch line is open, "ECU list" displayed on the CONSULT-III "CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR" may be the same as when the CAN communication line has short-circuit. However, symptoms differ depending on the case. See below chart for the differences.

How to Use CAN Communication Signal Chart

The CAN communication signal chart lists the signals needed for trouble diagnosis. It is useful for detecting the root cause by finding a signal related to the symptom, and by checking transmission and reception unit.

Scheme 31

Scheme 32

INTERVIEW WITH CUSTOMER

Interview with the customer is important to detect the root cause of CAN communication system errors and to understand vehicle condition and symptoms for proper trouble diagnosis.

Points in interview

1. What: Parts name, system name
2. When: Date, Frequency
3. Where: Road condition, Place
4. In what condition: Driving condition/environment
5. Result: Symptom

Note. Check normal units as well as error symptoms. Example: Circuit between ECM and the combination meter is judged normal if the customer indicates tachometer functions normally. When a CAN communication system error is present, multiple control units may malfunction or go into fail-safe mode. Indication of the combination meter is important to detect the root cause because it is the most obvious to the customer, and it performs CAN communication with many units.

1. ECU list: Check the items indicated in "ECU list". Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indicate the error circuit. NOTE: CAN communication line has no error if units other than Diag on CAN units are not indicated. An error may be on the power supply of the control unit, DDL1 line or DDL2 line. "TCM" which is Diag on CAN unit, is not indicated on "ECU list". This indicates that DLC is not receiving a signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between DLC and TCM (line 1-a in the figure below). NOTE: Diag on CAN units are not indicated on the "ECU list" when the CAN line between Diag on CAN unit and the data link connector is open. For a description of Diag on CAN, refer to " «DESCRIPTION»(ref-382159-S11061537522011011400000) ".
2. CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR: Check each item on "CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR". Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indicate the error circuit. Reception item of "ECM": On "TCM", "UNKWN" is indicated. This means ECM cannot receive the signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between ECM and TCM (line 2-a in the figure below). NOTE: If "UNKWN" is indicated on "TRANSMIT DIAG", then the control unit cannot transmit CAN communication signal to each unit. Draw a line between the control unit and the splice. Reception item of "AFS": On "TCM", "UNKWN" is indicated. This means AFS cannot receive the signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between AFS and TCM (line 2-b in the figure below). Reception item of "AV": "UNKWN" is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between AV and its receiving units. Do not draw any line. Reception item of "BCM": On "TCM", "UNKWN" is indicated. This means BCM cannot receive the signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between BCM and TCM (line 2-d in the figure below). Reception item of "EPS" and "I-KEY": "UNKWN" is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between EPS and I-KEY and their receiving units. Do not draw any line. NOTE: On CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (without PAST), "UNKWN" is indicated even though the item is not used in the trouble diagnosis. For the details of each item on CAN diagnostic support monitor, refer to " «CAN DIAGNOSTIC SUPPORT MONITOR»(ref-382159-S02816177792011011400000) ". Reception item of "M&A": On "TCM", "UNKWN" is indicated. This means M&A cannot receive the signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between M&A and TCM (line 2-f in the figure below). Reception item of "ADP": On "TCM", "UNKWN" is indicated. This means ADP cannot receive the signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between ADP and TCM (line 2-g in the figure below). Reception item of "ABS": "UNKWN" is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between ABS and its receiving units. Do not draw any line. Reception item of "IPDM-E": "UNKWN" is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between IPDM-E and its receiving units. Do not draw any line.
3. Based on information received from "CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR", place a check mark on the known good CAN communication line between ECM and IPDM-E. Through the previous procedure, the circuit between ADP splice and TCM has the most amount of lines (shade 3-a in the figure below). Place a check mark on the known good lines to establish the error circuit. Reception item of "IPDM-E": On "ECM", "OK" is indicated. IPDM-E communicates normally with ECM. Put a check mark on the normal circuit between ECM and IPDM-E (check mark 3-b in the figure below).
4. Through the above procedure, the error is detected in the TCM branch line (shaded in the figure below). NOTE: For abbreviations, refer to " «ABBREVIATION LIST»(ref-382159-S12925153882011011400000) ".

1. SELF-DIAG RESULTS: Inspect the control units indicating "U1000" or "U1001" on SELF-DIAG RESULTS.
2. CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (with PAST): Check the CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (with PAST) of units indicating "U1000" or "U1001" on SELF-DIAG RESULTS. Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indicate the possible error circuit. NOTE: For the details of each indication on CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR, refer to " «CAN DIAGNOSTIC SUPPORT MONITOR»(ref-382159-S02816177792011011400000) ". Reception item of "ECM": "VDC/TCS/ABS", "3" is indicated in the "PAST". This means ECM could not receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between ECM and ABS (line 2-a in the figure below). Reception item of "M&A": "VDC/TCS/ABS", "3" is indicated in the "PAST". This means M&A could not receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between M&A and ABS (line 2-b in the figure below). Reception item of "TCM": "VDC/TCS/ABS", "3" is indicated in the "PAST". This means TCM could not receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between TCM and ABS (line 2-c in the figure below).
3. CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (without PAST): Check the CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (without PAST) of units indicating "U1000" or "U1001" on SELF-DIAG RESULTS. Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indicate the possible error circuit. NOTE: While an error occurred in the past according to SELF-DIAG RESULTS, it is unclear which signal is not received. Assume that errors were detected from all reception items. Draw a single line among the unit and all reception items. (Work flow differs from CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (with PAST).) Reception item of "EPS": Assume that the unit could not receive the signals from ECM, ABS, and M&A. Draw a line among EPS, ECM, ABS, and M&A (line 3-a in the figure below). Reception item of "ABS": Assume that the unit could not receive the signal from ECM. Draw a line between ABS and ECM (line 3-b in the figure below).

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER"

The Supplemental Restraint System such as "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER", used along with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or un-belted.

Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS AIRBAG article and SEAT BELTS article.
