Revision: August 20072004 QX56
DTC U1000 CAN COMMUNICATION LINEPFP:23710
DescriptionUCS002D9
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent malfunction detection ability.
Many electronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with 2 communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
On Board Diagnosis LogicUCS002DA

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “CAN COMM CIRCUIT” with CONSULT-II or U1000 without CONSULT-II is
detected when TCM cannot communicate to other control units.
Possible CauseUCS002DB
Harness or connectors
(CAN communication line is open or shorted.)
DTC Confirmation ProcedureUCS002D C
NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch “OFF”
and wait at least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
After the repair, perform the following procedure to confirm the malfunction is eliminated.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “ENGINE” with CONSULT-II.
3. Start engine and wait for at least 6 seconds.
4. If DTC is detected, go to AT - 1 0 4 , "

DTC P0705 PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCHPFP:32006
DescriptionUCS002DP

The park/neutral position (PNP) switch includes a transmission position switch.

The transmission range switch detects the selector lever position and sends a signal to the TCM.
CONSULT-II Reference ValueUCS002DQ
On Board Diagnosis LogicUCS002D R

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “PNP SW/CIRC” with CONSULT-II or P0705 without CONSULT-II is detected
under the following conditions.
–When TCM does not receive the correct voltage signal from the PNP switch 1, 2, 3, 4 based on the gear
position.
–When no other position but “P” position is detected from “N” positions.
Possible CauseUCS002DS

Harness or connectors
[The park/neutral position (PNP) switch 1, 2, 3, 4 and TCM circuit is open or shorted.]
