      NOTE:

      Do not reconnect the disconnected connectors until this inspection is complete because there may be a short to +B in 2 or more CAN bus lines.

      Result

      Symptom Proceed to
      The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 16 (BAT), or the resistance between 14 (CANL) and 16 (BAT) is still below 6 kΩ when all the specified connectors are disconnected from the CAN junction connector. (There is a short to +B in the CAN main bus lines between the CAN junction connector LH1 and CAN junction connector RH1.) A
      The resistance between terminals 6 (CANH) and 16 (BAT), or the resistance between 14 (CANL) and 16 (BAT) becomes normal (6 kΩ or more) when a connector is disconnected from the CAN junction connector. (There is a short to +B in one of the areas that relate to one or more of the disconnected bus lines.) B
    4. When there is a short to +B in one or more of the bus lines that connect to an ECU (or sensor):
      1. Reconnect all of the connectors to the CAN junction connectors, except for the one that was disconnected last (the bus line that is shorted to +B). Check that the resistance shown on the tester is normal (6 kΩ or more) to confirm that there is a short to +B in the one bus line only.

        HINT: 

        • Connectors that connect to the CAN junction connector can be distinguished by the color of their CAN bus lines.
        • Reconnecting the connectors to non-original positions on the CAN junction connector does not affect system performance. However, it is preferred to reconnect the connectors to their original positions to avoid negative effects on the wiring such as tension on the wiring harnesses, and to make future maintenance easier.
    5. When there is no short to +B in any of the bus lines that connect to the ECUs and sensors:
      1. With all the specified connectors for ECUs and sensors disconnected, proceed with the inspection of the CAN bus main lines between the CAN junction connector LH1 and CAN junction connector RH1.

  3. CHECK FOR SHORT TO +B IN CAN BUS LINE (CAN J/C LH1) 
    1. Disconnect the H116 CAN main bus line connector.

    OK → REPLACE CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR RH1 

  5. CHECK FOR SHORT TO +B IN CAN BUS LINE (ECU, SENSOR) 
    1. Reconnect the connector of the bus line that is shorted to +B to the CAN junction connector (the connector that caused the bus line resistance to change to 6 kΩ or more when it was disconnected).
    2. Disconnect the connector that includes the DLC3 connected CAN lines (such as CANH and CANL) from the ECU (or sensor) to which the bus line shorted to +B is connected. Refer to TERMINALS OF ECU [08/2013 - ] .

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      H29-6 (CANH) - H29-16 (BAT) Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal 6 kΩ or higher
      H29-14 (CANL) - H29-16 (BAT) Cable disconnected from negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal 6 kΩ or higher

      HINT: 

      If the resistance changes to 6 kΩ or higher when the connector is disconnected from the ECU (or sensor), there may be a short in the ECU (or sensor).
