LAN-22
< BASIC INSPECTION >[CAN FUNDAMENTAL]
DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORKFLOW
Identify the error circuit using information from t
he “CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR” (“ECU list” included).
1. ECU list: Check the items indicated in “ECU list”. Draw a line on the diagnosis sheet to indicate the error circuit.
NOTE:
CAN communication line has no error if units other than Diag on CAN units are not indicated. An error
may be on the power supply of the control unit, DDL1 line or DDL2 line.
a. “TCM” which is Diag on CAN unit, is not indicated on “E CU list”. This indicates that DLC is not receiving a
signal from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between DLC and TCM (line 1-a in the figure below).
NOTE:
• Diag on CAN units are not indicated on the “ECU list” when the CAN line between Diag on CAN unit and
the data link connector is open.
• For a description of Diag on CAN, refer to LAN-6, "
Description".
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 “ECM”: On “TCM”, “UNKWN” is indicated. This means ECM cannot receive the signal
from TCM. Draw a line to indicate an error between ECM and TCM (line 2-a in the figure below).
NOTE:
If “UNKWN” is indicated on “TRA NSMIT DIAG”, then the control uni t cannot transmit CAN communication
signal to each unit. Draw a line between the control unit and the splice.
b. Reception item of “AFS”: On “T CM”, “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 figure below).
