Lexus ES: Check Bus 3 Line for Short to +B
DESCRIPTION
There may be a short circuit between one of the CAN bus lines and +B when there is no resistance between terminal 6 (CA3H) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3, or terminal 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3.
| Symptom | Trouble Area |
|---|---|
| There is no resistance between terminal 6 (CA3H) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3, or terminal 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) and terminal 16 (BAT) of the DLC3. |

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
CAUTION:
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
NOTICE:
-
Because the order of diagnosis is important to allow correct diagnosis, make sure to begin troubleshooting using How to Proceed with Troubleshooting when CAN communication system related DTCs are output.

- Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the engine switch off and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more without operating the key or any switches, or opening or closing the doors. After that, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.
-
After turning the engine switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

-
After performing repairs, perform the DTC check procedure and confirm that the DTCs are not output again.
DTC check procedure: Turn the engine switch on (IG) and wait for 1 minute or more. Then operate the suspected malfunctioning system and drive the vehicle at 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for 5 minutes or more.
-
After the repair, perform the CAN bus check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed as normal.

HINT:
- Before disconnecting related connectors for inspection, push in on each connector body to check that the connector is not loose or disconnected.
- When a connector is disconnected, check that the terminals and connector body are not cracked, deformed or corroded.

| G98-22 (CANL) - G57-16 (BAT) |
- *1: w/ Telematics Transceiver
- *2: w/ CAN Compatible Optional Devices
HINT:
If there is a short to +B in a CAN bus line without any CAN compatible optional devices connected to the option connector, repair or replace the CAN bus branch line or the option connector.
