Can Bus Wires, Repairing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Volkswagen Touareg, 2013 Volkswagen Touareg, 2012 Volkswagen Touareg, and 2011 Volkswagen Touareg. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Unshielded two-strand wiring -1 and 2- with a cross section of 0.35 mm 2
or 0.5 mm 2
can be used as CAN bus wiring.
- The color coding of CAN bus wires can be found in the following table:
| CAN High wire, powertrain | orange/black |
| CAN High wire, Convenience | orange/green |
| CAN High wire, Infotainment | orange/violet |
| CAN-Low lead (all) | orange/brown |
- Repairs on CAN-Bus wires can be performed with repair wire with matching cross section and also with twisted wires "green/yellow" or "white/yellow" from appropriate parts information.
- When repairing Bus leads, both wires must be of the same length. When twisting together wires -1 and 2-, the lay length of -A- = 20 mm must be observed.
- While doing this, no section of the wire, for example, in area of crimp connectors -arrow-, may be greater than -B- = 50 mm without twisting of the wires.
- Wrap repair points with yellow adhesive tape to mark a performed repair.
