   F-CAN Bus Connected Unit Check

   Which result is indicated?

   Gauge control module (Bus A) is Not Available

   Go to step 10.

   VSA modulator-control unit (Bus A) is Not Available

   Go to step 11.

   VSA modulator-control unit (Bus B) is Not Available

   Go to step 12.

   VSA modulator-control unit and gauge control module are Available

   Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Refer to intermittent failures troubleshooting .

10. Open wire check (F-CAN A_H, F-CAN A_L lines)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Disconnect the following connectors.

    Gauge control module connector A (32P)

    CAN gateway 12P connector

    -3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
