Diagnostic Item 15: Diagnose the lines between the joint connectors (CAN3 and CAN1): Diagnosis
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- STEP 1. Connector check: C-126 intermediate connector, joint connector (CAN3) and joint connector (CAN1) CAUTION: The strand end of the twist wire should be within 10 cm from the connector. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
When checking the joint connector, ensure that its wiring harness side and its short pins are not damaged.
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: Go to Step 2.
- NO: Repair the defective connector. Replace the joint connector as necessary.
- STEP 2. Resistance measurement at joint connector (CAN3) and C-126 intermediate connector. CAUTION: A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .CAUTION: The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
- Disconnect the joint connector (CAN3) and the intermediate connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.CAUTION: When measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
- Ensure that the negative battery terminal is disconnected.
- Continuity between joint connector (CAN3) terminal No.10 and C-126 intermediate connector terminal No.15
OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less)
- Continuity between joint connector (CAN3) terminal No.21 and C-126 intermediate connector terminal No.16
OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less)
CAUTION: Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair procedure. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: < All the resistances measure 2 ohms or less > Go to Step 3.
- NO: < Either or all of the resistances measure more than 2 ohms > Repair the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN3) and intermediate connector C-126.
- STEP 3. Resistance measurement at joint connector (CAN1) and C-126 intermediate connector. CAUTION: A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .CAUTION: The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
- Disconnect joint connector (CAN1) and the intermediate connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
- Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.CAUTION: When measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
- Ensure that the negative battery terminal is disconnected.
- Continuity between joint connector (CAN1) terminal No.11 and C-126 intermediate connector terminal No.15
OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less)
- Continuity between joint connector (CAN1) terminal No.22 and C-126 intermediate connector terminal No.16
OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less)
CAUTION: Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair procedure. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS .
Q: Is the check result normal?
- YES: < All the resistances measure 2 ohms or less > Follow diagnostic item 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21. Refer to CAN BUS DIAGNOSTICS TABLE .
- NO: < Either or all of the resistances measure more than 2 ohms > Repair the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN1) and intermediate connector C-126.
