CAUTION

. Always use the test harness when measuring the voltage

or resistance value at the female connector. If you fail to do
so, connectors may be damaged.
(4) Measure the resistance values between intermediate

connector E-123 terminal 2 and G and yaw rate sensor

connector E-126 terminal 2, and between intermediate
connector E-123 terminal 6 and G and yaw rate sensor
connector E-126 terminal 3.

• The resistance should measure 2 ohms or less.

CAUTION

If you repair the CAN bus line of the instrument panel wir-
ing harness assembly (the wiring harness connected to
the steering wheel sensor, the data link connector and the
resistor) and the transmission wiring harness assembly
(the wiring harness connected to the G and yaw rate sen-
sor connector and intermediate connector E-123), observe
the precautions regarding how to repair wiring harness. If
a new wire is added or a splice point is modified for the
CAN_L or CAN_H line, an error in the CAN communication
may be caused.
Q: Does the resistance measure 2 ohms or less?

YES : . Go to Step 3.
NO : . Repair the wiring harness wires between intermediate

connector E-123 and the G and yaw rate sensor
connector.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between intermediate
connector E-123 and the CAN main bus line.

NOTE: Also check the joint between the communication line
(connected to intermediate connector E-123) and the CAN
main bus line.

CAUTION

If there is a problem in the CAN bus line or the connectors
on the control wiring harness assembly (the wiring har-
ness connected to the M-ASTC-ECU, the power control
module and intermediate connector E-123), do not attempt
to repair the wiring harness or connector(s), but replace
the wiring harness assembly. If a wire is added or the con-
nector(s) are repaired, an error in the CAN communication
may be caused.
Q: Is the wiring harness between intermediate connector

E-123 and the CAN main bus line in good condition?
YES : Diagnose the G and yaw rate sensor. Refer to

P.35C-27

.

NO : Replace the control wiring harness assembly.
