DESCRIPTION
When the CAN bus main lines are normal (no open, short to ground, short to +B or short between lines) and there is an ECU or sensor on the "Communication Bus Check" screen that is indicated as not communicating or whose connection status on the "Communication Bus Check" screen changes intermittently, an open in one of the wires of a CAN bus branch line is suspected.
HINT:
If there is an ECU or sensor whose connection status changes intermittently while checking the "Communication Bus Check" screen, there may be an open circuit in one of the wires of a branch line of an ECU or sensor in the bus. If an open occurs in one of the wires of a CAN branch line, it may interfere with the communication of other ECUs or sensors resulting in an incorrect state being displayed.

PROCEDURE
1. |
CHECK FOR OPEN IN ONE SIDE OF BUS 3 CAN BRANCH LINE |
(a) Based on the vehicle equipment and specifications, confirm the systems that use CAN communication.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(d) Turn the Techstream on.
(e) Using the Techstream, perform "CAN Bus Check".

Open in Bus 3 Main Bus Line
DESCRIPTION
There may be an open circuit in one of the CAN main bus lines when the resistance
between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway
ECU) is 70 Ω or higher.
