B1038 IMMOBILIZER F-CAN Authentication ID Not Received  

DTC (Body Control Module)

  1. CAN gateway system DTC check

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -2. Check for CAN gateway system DTCs with the HDS as follows.

    DTC Description DTC
       

    Are any DTCs indicated?

    YES 

    Go to the troubleshooting for CAN gateway system DTC(s) .

    NO 

    Go to step 2.

  2. F-CAN circuit communication check

    -1. Select the FUNCTION TEST in the CAN gateway with the HDS, then select the F-CAN Bus Connected Unit Check.

    F-CAN Connection Check

    Does the body control module detect the CAN gateway Bus channel A?

    Bus A is Not Available

    Go to step 3.

    Bus A is Available

    Go to step 4.

  3. Open wire check (F-CAN A_H line, F-CAN A_L line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Disconnect the following connectors.

    CAN gateway 16P connector Body control module connector A (66P)

    -3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2 respectively.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode CAN gateway 16P connector: disconnected Body control module connector A (66P): disconnected
    Test point 1 CAN gateway 16P connector (female terminals) No. 3:
    Test point 2 Body control module connector A (66P) No. 64
    Test point 1 CAN gateway 16P connector (female terminals) No. 11:
    Test point 2 Body control module connector A (66P) No. 63

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The F-CAN A_H and F-CAN A_L wires are OK. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CAN gateway and the body control module. Substitute a known-good body control module , then recheck. If the DTC B1038 goes away after substitution, replace the original body control module .

    NO 

    Repair an open in the F-CAN A_H wire and/or the F-CAN A_L wire between the CAN gateway and the body control module.

  4. F-CAN circuit communication check (Transmitting control unit)

    -1. Select the FUNCTION TEST in the CAN gateway with the HDS, then select the F-CAN Bus Connected Unit Check.

    F-CAN Connection Check

    According to the detected DTC on the following table, make sure that the transmitting control unit detects the CAN gateway Bus channels normally.

    DTC Transmitting control unit Detected CAN gateway Bus channels at normal
    B1038 VSA modulator-control unit A, B

    Is it detected normally?

    Detected normal

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the transmitting control unit and the CAN gateway.

    B1038: VSA modulator-control unit is Not Available for Bus A

    Go to step 5.

    B1038: VSA modulator-control unit is Not Available for Bus B

    Go to step 6.

  5. Open wire check (F-CAN A_H line, F-CAN A_L line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. According to the detected DTC on the following table, disconnect the CAN gateway and transmitting control unit connectors.

    DTC Connector
    - CAN gateway 16P connector
    B1038 VSA modulator-control unit 46P connector

    -3. Check for continuity between the receiving control unit and the transmitting control unit on the F-CAN A_H circuit and the F-CAN A_L circuit.
