Diagnostic Item 21: Diagnose the lines from the main bus line to the combination meter <LH drive vehicles>


caution When servicing a CAN bus line, earth yourself by touching a metal object such as an unpainted water pipe. If you fail to do, a component connected to the CAN bus line may be broken.


TROUBLE JUDGMENT


If the M.U.T.-III can not received signals from the combination meter, CAN bus line connector(s) are broken or an open circuit has occurred.

COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM


The wiring harness wire or connectors may have loose, corroded, or damage terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector, or the combination meter may be defective.

POSSIBLE CAUSES



DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Connector check: C-09 joint connector (CAN2) connector and C-02 combination meter connector


caution The strand end of the twist wire should be within 10 cm from the connector. For details refer to .

When checking the joint connector, ensure that its wiring harness side and its short pins are not damaged.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.

Repair a defective connector or replace the joint connector.

STEP 2. Resistance measurement at C-09 joint connector (CAN2) and C-02 combination meter connector.
caution A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to .
caution The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to .


(1)Disconnect the joint connector (CAN2) and the combination meter connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
(2)Ignition switch: OFF (LOCK)
(3)
caution When measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer to .
Ensure that the negative battery terminal is disconnected.

(4)Continuity between C-09 joint connector (CAN2) terminal No.7 and C-02 combination meter connector terminal No.24
OK: 2 ohms or less

(5)Continuity between C-09 joint connector (CAN2) terminal No.18 and C-02 combination meter connector terminal No.23
OK: 2 ohms or less
caution Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair procedure. For details refer to .

Q. Are the check result normal?

<All the resistances measure 2 Ω or less> Power supply to the combination meter connector may be suspected. Diagnose the combination meter. Refer to .

<Either or all of the voltages measure more than 2 Ω> Repair the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN2) and the combination meter connector.
