CONSULT-III Data Link Connector (DLC) CircuitINFOID:0000000001555031
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
If the CONSULT-III cannot diagnose the sys tem properly, check the following items.
NOTE:
The CAN and DDL2 circuits from DLC pins 6, 7 and 14 may be connected to more than one system. A short in
any circuit connected to a control unit in one system may affect CONSULT-III access to other systems.

Symptom Check item
CONSULT-III cannot access
any system. • CONSULT-III DLC power supply circuit (Terminal 8) and ground circuit (Terminal 4)
CONSULT-III cannot access in-
dividual system. (Other sys-
tems can be accessed.) • Power supply and ground circuit for the control unit of the system (For detailed circuit, refer to wiring
diagram for each system.)
• Open or short circuit between the system and CONSULT-III DLC (For detailed circuit, refer to wiring diagram for each system.)
• Open or short circuit CAN communication line. Refer to LAN-14, "
Trouble Diagnosis Flow Chart".

Component
System description
CAN controller It controls CAN communication signal transmission and reception, error detection, etc.
Transceiver IC It converts digital signal into CAN communication signal, and CAN communication signal into digital
signal.
Noise filter It eliminates noise of CAN communication signal.
Termination circuit
*
(Resistance of approx. 120 Ω) It produces potential difference.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Example: Data link connector branch line open circuit
NOTE:
• When data link connector branch line is open, transmission and reception of CAN communication signals
are 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.
EPS control unit Normal operation.
Combination meter • Shift position indicator and OD OFF indicator turn OFF.
• Warning lamps turn ON.

How to Use CAN Communication Signal ChartINFOID:0000000001374971
The CAN communication signal chart lists the signals needed for trouble diagnosis. It is useful for detecting
the root cause by finding a signal related to the sy
mptom, and by checking transmission and reception unit.
To o l U s a g e
Interview sheet For filling in vehicle information and interview with customer.
Data sheet For copying on-board diagnosis data.
Diagnosis sheet For detecting the root cause. (Diagnosis sheet includes system diagram for every CAN system type)
ECU list
(On the “CAN DIAG SUPPORT
MNTR”) For checking the condition of control units and the status of CAN communication.
