   U0029-00 CAN Gateway F-CAN ch A Bus Off
   U0047-00 CAN Gateway F-CAN ch B Bus Off
   U3000-49 CAN Gateway Internal Failure

   Is DTC U0029-00, U0047-00, and/or U3000-49 indicated?

   YES 

   Go to the troubleshooting for CAN gateway system DTC (s) .

   NO 

   Go to step 3.

3. F-CAN circuit communication check

   - 1. Select the FUNCTION TEST in the CAN gateway with the HDS, then select the F-CAN Bus Connected Unit Check.

   F-CAN Bus Connected Unit Check

   Which result is indicated?

   GAUGE CONTROL MODULE (Bus A) is Not Available

   Go to step 4.

   SRS UNIT (Bus A) is Not Available

   Go to step 6.

   GAUGE CONTROL MODULE and SRS UNIT are Detected

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the gauge control module, the CAN gateway, and the SRS unit.

4. Open wire check (F-CAN A_H line)

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Disconnect the following connectors.

   Gauge control module 32P connector

   CAN gateway 24P connector

   - 3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	Gauge control module 32P connector: disconnected
   	CAN gateway 24P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	Gauge control module 32P connector No. 27 - Refer to: Gauge Control Module Input Test (2016), or Gauge Control Module Input Test (2017 2018 2019 2020)
   Test point 2	CAN gateway 24P connector No. 14

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The F-CAN A_H wire is OK. Go to step 5.

   NO 

   Repair an open in the F-CAN A_H wire between the gauge control module and the CAN gateway.

5. Open wire check (F-CAN A_L line)

   - 1. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	Gauge control module 32P connector: disconnected
   	CAN gateway 24P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	Gauge control module 32P connector No. 28 - Refer to: Gauge Control Module Input Test (2016), or Gauge Control Module Input Test (2017 2018 2019 2020)
   Test point 2	CAN gateway 24P connector No. 15

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The F-CAN A_L wire is OK. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CAN gateway and the gauge control module. Substitute a known-good gauge control module , then recheck. If DTC U0151 is not indicated the gauge control module was substituted, replace the original gauge control module .

   NO 

   Repair an open in the F-CAN A_L wire between the gauge control module and the CAN gateway.

6. Open wire check (F-CAN A_H line)

   - 1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   - 2. Disconnect the following connectors.

   SRS unit connector A (39P)

   CAN gateway 24P connector

   - 3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	SRS unit connector A (39P): disconnected
   	CAN gateway 24P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	SRS unit connector A (39P) No. 20 - Refer to: SRS Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (2016) or SRS Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (2017 2018 2019 2020)
   Test point 2	CAN gateway 24P connector No. 14

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The F-CAN A_H wire is OK. Go to step 7.

   NO 

   Repair an open in the F-CAN A_H wire between the SRS unit and the CAN gateway.

7. Open wire check (F-CAN A_L line)

   - 1. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	SRS unit connector A (39P): disconnected
   	CAN gateway 24P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	SRS unit connector A (39P) No. 21 - Refer to: SRS Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (2016) or SRS Unit Connector for Inputs and Outputs (2017 2018 2019 2020)
   Test point 2	CAN gateway 24P connector No. 15

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The F-CAN A_L wire is OK. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CAN gateway and the SRS unit. Update the SRS unit if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good SRS unit - Refer to: SRS Unit Removal and Installation (2017 2018 2019 2020), or SRS Unit Removal and Installation (2014 2015 2016) , then recheck. If DTC U0151 goes away and the SRS unit was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If DTC U0151 goes away and the SRS unit was substituted, replace the original SRS unit - Refer to: SRS Unit Removal and Installation (2017 2018 2019 2020), or SRS Unit Removal and Installation (2014 2015 2016) .

   NO 

   Repair an open or poor connection in the F-CAN A_L wire between the SRS unit and the CAN gateway.
