Code No.U1102 CAN communication time-out with ABS-ECU

CAUTION

• If more than three minutes elapse after the ignition switch is turned ON without starting engine,

the electric power steering-ECU may set diagnosis codes U1100 and U1102 as the M.U.T.-III shows
a diagnosis code status as stored.

• If the electric power steering-ECU sets diagnosis code No.U1102, diagnose the CAN bus lines. If

there is any fault in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnosis code may be set.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

The electric power steering-ECU receives vehicle
speed data (wheel speed sensor data) from the
ABS-ECU through the CAN bus lines. If the electric
power steering-ECU cannot receive the vehicle
speed data (wheel speed sensor data) from the
ABS-ECU for 60 seconds, diagnosis code U1102 will
be set.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM

The M.U.T.-III shows a diagnosis code status as

active

• Defective harness wire(s) or connector(s) in the

CAN bus lines between the ABS-ECU and the
electric power steering-ECU, or the power supply
to these ECUs, or the ECUs themselves are
defective.

The M.U.T.-III shows a diagnosis code status as

stored

• Carry out diagnosis by referring to GROUP 00,

How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service
Points

− How to treat past trouble

P.00-13

. Carry

out diagnosis with particular emphasis on con-
nector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus lines
between the ABS-ECU and the electric power
steering-ECU, and the power supply to the
ABS-ECU.

NOTE: For a The M.U.T.-III shows a diagnosis code

status as stored, you can not find it by the
M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics even if there is
any failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspec-
tion Service Points-How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction

P.00-13

and check the CAN bus

lines. You can narrow down the possible cause of
the trouble by referring to the diagnosis code,
which is set regarding the CAN communica-
tion-linked ECUs (Refer to GROUP 54D, CAN
Bus Line Diagnostic Flow

P.54D-7

).

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Defective harness wire(s) or connector(s)

• Malfunction of the ABS-ECU

• Malfunction of the electric power steering-ECU

(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF)

position.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP
54D, Diagnosis

P.54D-13

). Then go to Step

2.
