DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES

DTC U1073: Bus Off

CAUTION

If DTC U1073 is set in the combination meter,
always diagnose the CAN bus lines.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
communication circuit is normal.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

Some instruments of the combination meter are
linked to the CAN bus line. Both the combination
meter and the Engine ECU have a terminator resis-
tor.

.

DTC SET CONDITION

If the combination meter ceases communicating
once (i.e. bus off) and then returns to it, the combina-
tion meter will not communicate for five minutes
immediately after that point. This five minute period
is called "Penalty mode." Immediately after the com-
bination meter returns to communication, the DTC is
set.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

The wiring harness or connectors may have loose,
corroded, or damage terminals, or terminals pushed
back in the connector, or the combination meter may
be defective.
