TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
Symptom When Error Occurs in CAN Communication SystemNKS004PF
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.

Example: Data link connector branch line open circuit
NOTE:

When data link connector branch line is open, transmission and reception of CAN communication signals
is not affected. Therefore, no symptoms occur. However, be sure to repair malfunctioning circuit.

When data link connector branch line is open, “ECU list” displayed on the CONSULT-III “CAN DIAG SUP-
PORT MNTR” may be the same as when the CAN communication line has short-circuit. However, symp-
toms differ depending on the case. See below chart for the differences.

f. Reception item of “M&A”: On “TCM”, “UNKWN” is indicated. This means M&A cannot receive the signal
from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between M&A and TCM (line 2-f in the figure).
g. Reception item of “ADP”: On “TCM”, “UNKWN” is indicated. This means ADP cannot receive the signal
from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between ADP and TCM (line 2-g in the figure).
h. Reception item of “ABS”: “UNKWN” is not indicated. This indicates normal communication between ABS
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 “ECM”: “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 “M&A”: “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 “TCM”: “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 figure).

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).
