Inspection Procedure

HINT:

Operating the engine switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.

1. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL 
   1. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal before measuring the resistances of the main wire and the branch wire.
      CAUTION: Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
      NOTE:

      • After the engine switch is turned off, the HDD navigation system requires approximately 6 minutes to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the engine switch off, wait 6 minutes or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
      • When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
2. CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (SKID CONTROL ECU BRANCH WIRE) 
   1. Disconnect the A19 and A21 skid control ECU connectors.
   2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance 

   RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION
   
   

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   A21-9 (CANH) - A21-8 (CANL)	Engine switch off	54 to 69 Ω

   NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE SKID CONTROL ECU BRANCH WIRE OR CONNECTOR (CANH, CANL) 

   OK: Go to Next Step 

3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SKID CONTROL ECU - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND) 
   1. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.
      NOTE: When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (see INITIALIZATION ).
   2. Disconnect the A19 and A21 skid control ECU connectors.
   3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance 

      RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION
      
      

      Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
      A19-1 (GND) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω
      A21-1 (GND4) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω

   4. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Voltage 

   VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION
   
   

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   A19-43 (+BI1) - Body ground	Always	11 to 14 V
   A21-38 (+BI2) - Body ground	Always	11 to 14 V
   A19-29 (+BI3) - Body ground	Always	11 to 14 V
   A21-22 (+BI4) - Body ground	Always	11 to 14 V
   A19-46 (IG1) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG)	11 to 14 V
   A21-46 (IG2) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG)	11 to 14 V
