Inspection Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Toyota Camry Solara. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
- Turn the ignition switch off before measuring the resistance of the CAN main wires and CAN branch wires.
- After the ignition switch is turned off, check that the key reminder warning system and light reminder warning system are not operating.
- Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle as is for at least 1 minute and do not operate the ignition switch, any other switches or the doors. If doors need to be opened in order to check connectors, open the doors and leave them open.
HINT:
- Operating the ignition switch, any other switches, or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.
- Perform the following inspections for the ECUs (sensors) that are not displayed on the intelligent tester first. If a malfunction is still not able to be identified, perform the following inspections for all other ECUs (sensors) connected to the CAN communication system.
- The basic inspection procedures that can be used for all related ECUs in common are shown below. "ECU A" represents the following: ECM, steering sensor, yaw rate sensor, skid control ECU, combination meter ECU.
- CHECK FOR AN OPEN IN ONE SIDE OF THE CAN SUB BUS LINE
- Disconnect the connector with terminals CANH and CANL from ECU A.
- Select "Check the ECU connected to CAN BUS "on the intelligent tester.
Result
FOR AN OPEN IN ONE SIDE OF THE CAN SUB BUS LINEResult Proceed to ECUs only are not displayed on the intelligent tester. A Several ECUs and sensors are not displayed on the intelligent tester. B
B: CONNECT THE ECU A CONNECTOR TO THE ECU (SENSOR) AND INSPECT OTHER ECUS (SENSORS) TO MEET "RESULT A"
A: Go to next step
- CHECK FOR AN OPEN IN ONE SIDE OF THE CAN SUB BUS LINE
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance
FOR AN OPEN IN ONE SIDE OF THE CAN SUB BUS LINEComponent Condition Specified Value ECM Disconnect the negative battery cable 108 to 132 Ω Combination Meter Disconnect the negative battery cable 108 to 132 Ω Others Disconnect the negative battery cable 54 to 69 Ω
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE ECU A SUB BUS LINE OR CONNECTOR
OK: REPLACE ECU A
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
