TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Symptom When Error Occurs in CAN Communication System
INFOID:0000000012433334
In CAN communication system, multiple control units mutually transmit and receive signals. Each control unit
cannot transmit and receive signals if any error occurs on CAN communication line. Under this condition, mul-
tiple control units related to the root cause malfunction or go into fail-safe mode.
ERROR EXAMPLE
NOTE:
Each vehicle differs in symptom of each control unit under fail-safe mode and CAN communication line wiring.
Example: Main Line Between Data Link Connector and ABS Actuator and Electric Un it (Control Unit) Open Circuit
JSMIA0442GB
Unit name Major symptom
ECM Engine torque limiting is affected, and shift harshness increases.
BCM • Reverse warning buzzer does not sound.
• The front wiper moves under continuous operation mode even though the front wip-
er switch being in the intermittent position.
EPS control unit The steering effort increases.
Combination meter • The shift position indicator and OD OFF indicator turn OFF.
• The speedometer is inoperative.
• The odo/trip meter stops.
ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) Normal operation.
TCM No impact on operation.
IPDM E/R When the ignition switch is ON,
• The headlamps (Lo) turn ON.
• The cooling fan continues to rotate.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
NOTE:
When data link connector branch line is open, transmiss
ion and reception of CAN communication signals are
not affected. Therefore, no symptoms occur. However, be sure to repair malfunctioning circuit.
Example: CAN-H, CAN-L Harness Short Circuit

How to Use CAN Communication Signal ChartINFOID:0000000012433338
The CAN communication signal chart lists the signals trans
mitted/received among control units. It is useful for
detecting the root cause by finding a signal related to the symptom, and by checking transmission and recep-
tion unit.

CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000012433346
SYSTEM DIAGRAM
DESCRIPTION
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each
control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication Signal Generation
• Termination circuits (resistors) are connected ac ross the CAN communication system. When transmitting a
CAN communication signal, each control unit passes a cu rrent to the CAN-H line and the current returns to
the CAN-L line.

SYSTEM
• The current flows separately into the termination circuits connected
across the CAN communication system and the termination cir-
cuits drop voltage to generate a potential difference between the
CAN-H line and the CAN-L line.
NOTE:
A signal with no current passage is called “Recessive” and one
with current passage is called “Dominant”.
• The system produces digital signals for signal communications, by using the potential difference.

No. Message name Description
1 Start of frame (1 bit) Start of message.
2 Arbitration of field (11 bit) Priorities of message-sending are shown when there is a pos-
sibility that multiple messages are sent at the same time.
3 Control field (6 bit) Signal quantity in data field is shown.
4 Data field (0-64 bit) Actual signal is shown.
5 CRC field (16 bit) • The transmitting control unit calculates sending data in ad-
vance and writes the calculated value in a message.
• The receiving control unit calculates received data and judg-
es that the data reception is normal when the calculated val-
ue is the same as the value written in the sent data.
6 ACK field (2 bit) The completion of normal reception is sent to the transmitting
unit.
7 End of frame (7 bit) End of message.

The CAN communication line is a twisted pair wire consisting of
strands of CAN-H (1) and CAN-L (2) and has noise immunity.
NOTE:
The CAN communication system has the characteristics of noise-resistant because this system produces dig-
ital signals by using the potential difference between
the CAN-H line and the CAN-L line and has the twisted
pair wire structure.
Since the CAN-H line and the CAN-L line are always adjacent to
each other, the same degree of noise occurs, respectively, when a
noise (1) occurs. Although the noise changes the voltage, the poten-
tial difference (2) between the CAN-H line and the CAN-L line is
insensitive to noise. Therefore, noise-resistant signals can be
obtained.
CAN Signal Communications
Each control unit of the CAN communication system transmits signals through the CAN communication con-
trol circuit included in the control unit and receives only necessary signals from each control unit to perform
various kinds of control.
• Example: Transmitted signals
