Lost Communication with Vehicle Dynamics Control Module

  • Diagnosis Condition: Ignition switch turned to ON (3 seconds elapse after ignition switch is turned to ON)
  • Malfunction Status: Communication is lost between skid control ECU and 4 wheel drive control ECU
  • Malfunction Time: 0.72 seconds or more
  • Other: 1 trip detection logic

CAN communication system

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

  • for 4WD:

    When the data in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is being overwritten, a message is displayed on the multi-information display and the 4LO indicator light rapidly blinks due to the 4 wheel drive control ECU detecting a communication malfunction (blinks at 0.25 second intervals (0.25 seconds on and 0.25 seconds off)), but this is not a malfunction.

    for 2WD:

    When the data in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is being overwritten, the rear differential lock indicator light may rapidly blink due to the 4 wheel drive control ECU detecting a communication malfunction (blinks at 0.25 second intervals (0.25 seconds on and 0.25 seconds off)), but this is not a malfunction.

  • Clear all DTCs, since DTCs are stored after the data in the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) is overwritten.
