Go to the troubleshooting for CAN gateway system DTC(s) - Refer to appropriate year/vehicle: DTC Troubleshooting Index .
NO
Go to step 2.
- 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?
PCM (Bus A) is Not Available
Go to step 3.
PCM (Bus B) is Not Available
Go to step 4.
SRS UNIT is Not Available
Go to step 5.
PCM and SRS UNIT are Detected
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Go to Troubleshooting Intermittent Failures - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the SRS (2015-17) or How to Troubleshoot the SRS (2018-19) . If another DTC is indicated, troubleshoot the DTC.
- Open wire check (F-CAN A_H, F-CAN A_L lines)
-1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- 2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
NOTE: This step must be done to protect the PCM from damage.
- 3. Disconnect the following connectors.
CAN gateway 24P connector PCM connector A (51P) - 4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode CAN gateway 24P connector: disconnected PCM connector A (51P): disconnected Test point 1 CAN gateway 24P connector No. 14 Test point 2 PCM connector A (51P) No. 9 - Refer to appropriate year/vehicle: - PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs (L4) (2015-17)

- PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs (V6) (2018-19)
Is there continuity?
YES
The F-CAN A_H and F-CAN A_L wires are OK. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CAN gateway and the PCM. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, then retest. If the DTC is still present, replace the PCM - Refer to: PCM Removal and Installation (With SH-AWD) or PCM Removal and Installation (Without SH-AWD) .
NO
Repair an open in the wire between the PCM and the CAN gateway.
- Open wire check (F-CAN B_H, F-CAN B_L lines)
-1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- 2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
NOTE: This step must be done to protect the PCM from damage.
- 3. Disconnect the following connectors.
CAN gateway 24P connector PCM connector A (51P) - 4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
