Caution / Notice / Hint
NOTE:
- Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the power switch off and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more without operating the key or any switches, or opening or closing the doors. After that, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.
- After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work (Refer to PRECAUTION (2016 - 2017) ).
- Because the order of diagnosis is important to allow correct diagnosis, make sure to begin troubleshooting using How to Proceed with Troubleshooting when CAN communication system related DTCs are output (Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING (2016 - 2017) ).
- After performing repairs, perform the DTC check procedure and confirm that the DTCs are not output again.
- DTC check procedure: Turn the power switch on (IG) and wait at least 60 seconds.
- After the repair, perform CAN bus check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed (Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (07/2015 - 08/2016) Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (08/2016 -) ).
HINT:
- Operating the power switch, any other switches or a door triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.
- Even after DTCs are cleared, if a DTC is stored again after driving the vehicle for a while, the malfunction may be occurring due to vibration of the vehicle. In such a case, wiggling the ECUs or wire harness while performing the inspection below may help determine the cause of the malfunction.
- Connectors that connect to the CAN junction connector can be distinguished by the color of their CAN bus lines. When the connectors have been disconnected from the CAN junction connector, reconnecting the connectors to non-original positions on the CAN junction connector does not affect system performance. However, it is preferred to reconnect the connectors to their original positions to avoid negative effects on the wiring such as tension on the wire harnesses, and to make future maintenance easier.
