YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How to

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service
Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunction ).

NO :

Check the ETACS-ECU connector, and
repair if necessary. If the ETACS-ECU
connector is in good condition, go to Step
26.

STEP 26. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics (retest
the system)
Diagnose CAN bus lines, and check if M.U.T.-III
screen shows normal state.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00

− How to

use Troubleshooting/inspection Service
Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunction ).

NO :

Check the ETACS-ECU connector, and
repair if necessary. If the ETACS-ECU
connector is in good condition, replace the
ETACS-ECU.

Diagnosis Item 3: Diagnose shorts between CAN_H and L lines

CAUTION

When servicing a CAN bus line, earth yourself by touching a metal object such as an unpainted water
pipe. If you fail to do, a component connected to the CAN bus line may be broken.

FUNCTION
The M.U.T.-III judges a short between CAN_H and
CAN_L line when all data from ECU cannot be
received while checking periodically sent data from
each ECU even if the voltage is normal.

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT CONDITIONS
Short circuit may be present between the CAN_L
and H lines when the resistance between the CAN
bus lines (CAN_L and H lines) is less than 2

Ω.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of the wiring harness

NOTE: The M.U.T.-III cannot receive all the periodi-

cally sent data from each ECU by the open circuit
of harness between the diagnosis connector, the
joint connector (CAN1) and the joint connector
(CAN2). In addition, the M.U.T.-III measures the
voltage itself and shows 2.5 V due to the open
circuit of harness. Therefore, it is judged as a
short between CAN_H and CAN_L line.

• Malfunction of the connector

• Malfunction of each ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Connector check: C-53 <LHD> or C-35
<RHD> intermediate connector

AC903853

Connector: C-53 <LHD>

BI

AC903865

Connector: C-35 <RHD>

AQ

CAUTION

The strand end of the twist wire should be within
10 cm from the connector. For details refer to

P.54C-7

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Repair the defective connector.

STEP 2. Resistance measurement at C-53 <LHD>
or C-35 <RHD> intermediate connector.

CAUTION

A digital multimeter should be used. For details
refer to

P.54C-7

.

CAUTION

The test wiring harness should be used. For
details refer to

P.54C-7

.

Connector: C-35 <RHD>

AQ

(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at its

female-side intermediate connector (at the
instrument panel wiring harness side).

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF)

position.

CAUTION

When measuring the resistance, disconnect the
negative battery terminal. For details refer to

P.54C-7

.

(3) Ensure that the negative battery terminal is

disconnected.
