65 P1601 D CAN BUS Off CAN BUS off condition is detected consecutively. Torque reduction control is disable.
Circuit Description
The engine control system in 6VE1 uses high speed
CAN bus system. The individual CAN bus systems are
connected via two interfaces and can exchange
information and data. This allows control modules tha
t
are connected to different CAN bus systems to
communicate. Engine control modules (ECM) in the
vehicle that require continuous, rapid communication
are connected to the high speed CAN bus. The engine
is continuously notified of the current engine load
status. Since the ECM has to react immediately to load
status changes, rapid communication is required
between the ECM and the automatic transmission
control module. The high speed CAN bus in the 6VE1 is
designed as a two-wire CAN bus (twisted pair). The
wires are shielded and twisted. The engine rate is 500
K
band.
Diagnostic Aids
Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connection at the
ECM. Look for possible bent, backed out, deformed
or damaged terminals. Check for weak terminal
tension as well. Also check for a chafed wire tha
t
could short to bare metal or other wiring. Inspect for a
broken wire inside the insulation.
When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short o
r
open condition, move the wiring harness while
observing test equipment for a change.
Inspect the wiring for EMI (Erectro-Magnetic
Interference). Check that all wires are properly routed
away from coil, and generator. Also check fo
r
improperly installed electrical options. When this test
is performed, turn “OFF" on electronic autoparts
switches to improperly for a noise preventing.

DIESELING, RUN-ON SYMPTOM
DEFINITIONS: Engine continues to run after key is
turned OFF, but runs very rough. If engine runs
smoothly, check the ignition switch and adjustment.
Step Action Value (s) Yes No
1
Was the "On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check"
performed?
- Go to Step 2 Go to On Board
Diagnostic (OBD)
System Check

1. Perform a bulletin search.
2. If a bulletin that addresses the symptom is found,
correct the condition as instructed in the bulletin.
Was a bulletin found that addresses the symptom?
- Verify repair Go to Step 3
3
Was a visually/physical check performed?
- Go to Step 4 Go to Visual /
physical Check.
4
Check for a short between voltage circuit and the
ignition feed circuit.
Was a problem found?
- Verify repair Go to Step 5
5
Check the fuel leaking from injector. Perform the
Injector Coil/Balance Test.
Refer to 6E-106 page.
Was a problem found?
- Verify repair Go to Step 6

1. Review all diagnostic procedures within this table.
2. If all procedures have been completed and no
malfunctions have been found, review/inspect the
following:
Visual/physical inspection.
Tech 2 data.
All electrical connections within a suspected circuit
and/or system.
Was a problem found?
- Verify repair Go to Step 7
7
Is the ECM programmed with the latest software
release?
If not, download the latest software to the ECM using
the "SPS (Service Programming System)".
Was the problem solved?
- Verify repair Go to Step 8

Replace the ECM.
Is the action complete?
IMPORTANT: The replacement ECM must be
programmed. Refer to section of the Service
Programming System (SPS) in this manual. Following
ECM programming, the immobilizer system (if
equipped) must be linked to the ECM. Refer to section
11 “Immobilizer System-ECM replacement” for the
ECM/Immobilizer linking procedure.

Abnormal engine noise often consists of various
noises originating in rotating parts, sliding parts and
other moving parts of the engine. It is, therefore,
advisable to locate the source of noise systematically.
Condition Possible cause Correction
Noise from crank journals or from
crank bearings
(Faulty crank journals and crank
bearings usually make dull noise
that becomes more evident when
accelerating) Oil clearance increased due to
worn crank journals or crank
bearings Replace crank bearings and
crankshaft or regrind crankshaft
