Self-DiagnosisNKS004HE
DTCSelf-diagnosis item
(CONSULT-II indication)DTC detection condition Inspection/Action
U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUITWhen ECM is not transmitting or receiving CAN
communication signal of OBD (emission-related
diagnosis) for 2 seconds or more.
Refer to LAN-15,
"TROUBLE DIAG-
NOSES WORK FLOW" . When a control unit (except for ECM) is not
transmitting or receiving CAN communication
signal for 2 seconds or more.
U1001 CAN COMM CIRCUITWhen ECM is not transmitting or receiving CAN
communication signal other than OBD (emis-
sion-related diagnosis) for 2 seconds or more.
U1002 SYSTEM COMMWhen a control unit is not transmitting or receiv-
ing CAN communication signal for 2 seconds or
less.Start the inspection.
Refer to the applicable
section of the indicated
control unit.
U1010 CONTROL UNIT [CAN]When an error is detected during the initial diag-
nosis for CAN controller of each control unit.Replace the control unit
indicating “U1010”.

Trouble Diagnosis ProcedureNKS004HJ
INTERVIEW WITH CUSTOMER
Interview with the customer is important to detect the root cause of CAN communication system errors and to
understand vehicle condition and symptoms for proper trouble diagnosis.
Points in interview

What: Parts name, system name

When: Date, Frequency

Where: Road condition, Place

In what condition: Driving condition/environment

Result: Symptom
NOTE:

Check normal units as well as error symptoms.
–Example: Circuit between ECM and the combination meter is judged normal if the customer indicates
tachometer functions normally.

When a CAN communication system error is present, multiple control units may malfunction or go into fail-
safe mode.

Indication of the combination meter is important to detect the root cause because it is the most obvious to
the customer, and it performs CAN communication with many units.

2. CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR: Check each item on “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR”. Draw a line on the
diagnosis sheet to indicate the error circuit.
a. Reception item of “ENGINE”: On “TCM”, “UNKWN” is indicated. This means ECM cannot receive the sig-
nal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between ECM and TCM (line 2-a in the figure).
NOTE:
If “UNKWN” is indicated on “TRANSMIT DIAG”, then the control unit cannot transmit CAN communication
signal to each unit. Draw a line between the control unit and the splice.
b. Reception item of “ADAPTIVE LIGHT”: On “TCM”, “UNKWN” is indicated. This means AFS cannot
receive the signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between AFS and TCM (line 2-b in the fig-
ure).
c. Reception item of “MULTI AV”: “UNKWN” is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between
AV and its receiving units. Do not draw any line.

i. Reception item of “IPDM E/R”: “UNKWN” is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between
IPDM-E and its receiving units. Do not draw any line.
3. Based on information received from “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR”, place a check mark on the known
good CAN communication line between ECM and IPDM-E.
a. Through the previous procedure, the circuit between ADP splice and TCM has the most amount of lines
(shade 3-a in the figure).
b. Place a check mark on the known good lines to establish the error circuit.
Reception item of “IPDM E/R”: On “ECM”, “OK” is indicated. IPDM-E communicates normally with ECM.
Put a check mark on the normal circuit between ECM and IPDM-E (check mark 3-b in the figure).

2. CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (with PAST): Check the CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (with PAST) of units
indicating “U1000” or “U1001” on SELF-DIAG RESULTS. Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indicate
the possible error circuit.
NOTE:
For the details of each indication on CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR, refer to LAN-44, "
CAN Diagnostic Sup-
port Monitor" .
a. Reception item of “ENGINE”: “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “3” is indicated in the “PAST”. This means ECM could not
receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between ECM and ABS (line 2-a in the figure).
b. Reception item of “METER”: “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “3” is indicated in the “PAST”. This means M&A could not
receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between M&A and ABS (line 2-b in the figure).
c. Reception item of “TRANSMISSION”: “VDC/TCS/ABS”, “3” is indicated in the “PAST”. This means TCM
could not receive the signal from ABS in the past. Draw a line between TCM and ABS (line 2-c in the fig-
ure).

3. CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (without PAST): Check the CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR (without PAST) of
units indicating “U1000” or “U1001” on SELF-DIAG RESULTS. Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indi-
cate the possible error circuit.
NOTE:

While an error occurred in the past according to SELF-DIAG RESULTS, it is unclear which signal is not
received. Assume that errors were detected from all reception items.

Draw a single line among the unit and all reception items. (Work flow differs from CAN DIAG SUPPORT
MNTR (with PAST).)
a. Reception item of “EPS”: Assume that the unit could not receive the signals from ECM, ABS, and M&A.
Draw a line among EPS, ECM, ABS, and M&A (line 3-a in the figure).
b. Reception item of “ABS”: Assume that the unit could not receive the signal from ECM. Draw a line
between ABS and ECM (line 3-b in the figure).
