Lost Communication with ECM

When voltage at terminal +BS is 10 to 17.4 V and vehicle speed is 15 km/h (9 mph) or more, data cannot be sent to ECM continuously for 2 seconds or more.

  • CAN communication system (skid control ECU to ECM)
  • Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly)
  • ECM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform zero point calibration and store system information (See page PROCEDURE PROCEDURE ).

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MOMENTARY INTERRUPTION)

(a) Using the Techstream, check for any momentary interruption in the wire harness and connector corresponding to the DTC (See page ). ABS/VSC/TRAC ).
