Lexus ES: Check Bus 3 Lines for Short Circuit
DESCRIPTION
There may be a short circuit between the CAN main bus lines and/or CAN branch lines when the resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) is below 54 Ω.
| Symptom | Trouble Area |
|---|---|
| Resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) is below 54 Ω. |

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 power 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 (-) auxiliary battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.
-
After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary 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 power 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.
PROCEDURE
| 1. | CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (NO. 4 CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR) |
(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
(b) Disconnect the G98 No. 4 CAN junction connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| *a | Front view of wire harness connector (to No. 4 CAN Junction Connector) | *b | to DCM (Telematics Transceiver) (w/ Telematics Transceiver) |
| *c | to Central Gateway ECU (Network Gateway ECU) | *d | to Option Connector (Bus Buffer ECU) (w/ CAN Compatible Optional Devices) |
Standard Resistance:
| Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition | Connected to |
|---|---|---|---|
| G98-8 (CANH) - G98-19 (CANL) | Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal | 200 Ω or higher | DCM (telematics transceiver)*1 |
| G98-9 (CANH) - G98-20 (CANL) | Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal | 108 to 132 Ω | Central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) |
| G98-10 (CANH) - G98-21 (CANL) | Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal | 200 Ω or higher*2 1 MΩ or higher*3 | Option connector (bus buffer ECU)*2 |
| G98-11 (CANH) - G98-22 (CANL) | Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal | 108 to 132 Ω | Central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) |
- *1: w/ Telematics Transceiver
- *2: w/ CAN Compatible Optional Devices
- *3: w/o CAN Compatible Optional Devices
HINT:
If there is a short 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.
