Troubleshooting - B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A
Check the PCM for DTCs and troubleshoot PCM or F-CAN loss of communication errors first (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ), then perform this diagnosis first if the symptom is related to the B-CAN system.
NOTE:
Always cycle the ignition switch within 3 seconds when prompted in the DTC troubleshooting procedures in this section.
- Compare the system with this list of B-CAN related systems:
- Gauge control module
- Exterior lights
- Turn signals
- Entry light control
- Interior lights
- Safety indicators
- Heated windshield wiper area
- Horns (security and panic)
- Chimes (key, seat belt, lights-on, and parking brake)
- Power windows
- Power window/moonroof timer
- Wiper/washer
- Security
- Keyless entry
- Power door locks
- Climate control/HVAC control
- Key interlock
- Dash light brightness
Is the symptom related to the B-CAN system?
- YES - Go to step 2.
- NO - Go to the system troubleshooting for the system with the symptom.
- Connect the HDS to the DLC, then turn the ignition switch ON (II).
- From the BODY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SELECTION MENU, select UNIT INFORMATION, and then select CONNECTED UNIT listed to see if the following control units are communicating with the HDS.
- MICU
- Door multiplex control unit
- Gauge control module
- Combination switch control unit
- Relay control module
- Climate control unit/HVAC control unit
NOTE:- On gauge control modules produced before April 2005, stored gauge control gauge module DTCs cannot be read using the HDS. On cars with these gauge control modules; "Not Available" will be in the CONNECTED UNIT STATUS Gauge control module DTCs can be displayed, and all B-CAN DTCs can be cleared using test mode 1 (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE 1 AND TEST MODE 2 (WITHOUT THE HDS) ).
- If one or more of the units are not communicating with the HDS, DETECT will be displayed.
- If the unit is not communicating or the vehicle is not equipped, "Not Available" will be displayed.
Are all control units communicating with the HDS?
- YES - Go to step 4.
- NO - If any of the control units are not communicating, go to B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode B (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE B ). If all units are not communicating or only the MICU is communicating, go to DTC B1000 troubleshooting (see DTC B1000: Communication Bus Line Error ).
- Select the system that has the problem from the BODY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SELECTION MENU, then select DTCs.
Are any DTCs indicated?
- YES - Go to step 5.
- NO - If the problem is related to one of the following items, go to B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode C (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE C ).
- Exterior lights
- Turn signals
- Entry light control
- Interior lights
- Horns (security and panic)
- Power windows
- Wiper/washer
If the problem is related to one of the following items, go to the troubleshooting for that individual system.
- Gauge control module
- Safety indicators
- Chimes (key, seat belt and lights-on)
- Heated windshield wiper area (climate control)
- Security
- Keyless entry
- Climate control
- Key interlock
- Dash light brightness
- Audio system
- Navigation
- Record all DTCs, and sort them by DTC type.
- Troubleshoot the DTC(s) in this order:
- Battery voltage DTCs.
- Internal error DTCs.
- Loss of communication DTCs. Begin troubleshooting with the lowest number first (Example: If DTC B1006 and B1058 are retrieved, begin by troubleshooting B1006).
- Signal error DTCs.
