TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
Symptom When Error Occurs in CAN Communication SystemNKS004HD
In CAN communication system, multiple units mutually transmit and receive signals. Each unit cannot transmit
and receive signals if any error occurs on CAN communication line. Under this condition, multiple control units
related to the root cause malfunction or go into fail-safe mode.
ERROR EXAMPLE
NOTE:

Each vehicle differs in symptom of each unit under fail-safe mode and CAN communication line wiring.

Refer to LAN-41, "Abbreviation List" for the unit abbreviation.
Example: TCM branch line open circuit
SKIB8738E
Unit name Symptom
ECM Engine torque limiting is affected, and shift harshness increases.
BCM Reverse warning chime does not sound.
EPS control unit Normal operation.
Combination meter

Shift position indicator and OD OFF indicator turn OFF.

Warning lamps turn ON.
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) Normal operation.
TCM No impact on operation.
IPDM E/R Normal operation.

tion switch OFF.)

The steering lock does not release (if an error or malfunction occurs while turning
the ignition switch OFF.)

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.

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).

4. Search for the possible cause using CAN communication signal chart using information from the interview
with the customer.
NOTE:
For the details of CAN communication signal, refer to LAN-52, "
CAN Communication Signal Chart" .
a. ABS warning lamp turned ON and speedometer did not move: This means that “ABS warning lamp signal”
and “Vehicle speed signal” could not communicate between M&A and ABS (4-a in the figure).
b. The tachometer moved normally: This means that “Engine speed signal” could communicate normally
between ECM and M&A (4-b in the figure).
