Code No.U1570
No bus activity error for LIN
TROUBLE JUDGEMENT
The ETACS-ECU will set diagnosis code No. U1570 when no communication has been carried
out for more than a certain period after it received last valid data.
PROBABLE CAUSES
- Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU
- Malfunction of the slave ECU
- LIN bus lines shorted to power supply
- LIN bus lines shorted to earth
|
|
STEP 1. Check of open circuit in LIN line between
ETACS-ECU connector and column switch connector.
|
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
|
 Go to Step 2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 2. Measure the voltage at the LIN bus lines.
|
|
|
Check the LIN bus lines for short to power supply.
|
|
|
(1)Disconnect all the connectors which are connected to the LIN bus lines.
|
|
|
(2)Turn the ignition switch from LOCK (OFF) to ON position.
|
|
|
(3)Measure the voltage between the column switch connector (power supply terminal)
and the body earth.
- The voltmeter needle does not swing.
| note |
If the LIN bus lines are short to power supply, the voltmeter indicates a constant value.
|
|
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
|
Go to Step 3.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 3. Measure the resistance at the LIN bus lines.
|
|
|
Check the LIN bus lines for short to earth.
|
|
|
(1)Disconnect all the connectors which are connected to the LIN bus lines.
|
|
|
(2)Measure the resistance between the column switch connector (earth terminal) and
the body earth.
- No continuity (1 kΩ
or more)
|
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
|
Go to Step 4.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 4. Check the column switch.
|
|
|
Disconnect column switch connector, and recheck whether diagnosis code No. U1570 is set.
|
|
|
(1)Connect all the relevant ECUs, and disconnect column switch connector only.
|
|
|
(2)Erase the diagnosis code.
|
|
|
(3)Turn the ignition switch from LOCK (OFF) to ON position.
|
|
|
(4)Check whether diagnosis code No. U1570 is set.
| note |
If diagnosis code No. U1570 is not set, diagnosis code No. U1500 is set because the column
switch is disconnected. This is normal.
|
|
|
|
(5)Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.
|
|
|
Q.
Is diagnosis code No. U1570 set?
|
|
|
Reconnect the column switch connector, and go to Step 5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Replace the column switch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 5. Recheck for diagnosis code.
|
|
|
Check again if the diagnosis code is set in the ETACS-ECU.
|
|
|
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
|
|
|
(2)Turn the ignition switch from LOCK (OFF) to ON position.
|
|
|
(3)Check whether diagnosis code No. U1570 is set.
|
|
|
(4)Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.
|
|
|
Q.
Is the diagnosis code set?
|
|
|
Replace the ETACS-ECU.
