Repairing CAN Bus Wires
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2015 Audi S7, 2015 Audi RS 7, 2015 Audi A7 Quattro, 2014 Audi S7, and 2014 Audi RS 7. 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 mm2 and/or 0.5 mm2 can be used as CAN-Bus wiring.
- The color coding of CAN bus lines 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".
- When repairing CAN bus wires, both wires must be 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.
