Code No. U1109: ETACS CAN timeout



caution
  • If diagnosis code No. U1109 is set, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
  • When replacing the ECU, always check that the SRS circuit is normal.

FUNCTION


If the signal from ETACS-ECU cannot be received, the SRS-ECU sets diagnosis code No. U1109.

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT


Because of the CAN-B bus circuit malfunction, if SRS-ECU becomes unable to perform the normal data transmission, SRS-ECU determines that an abnormality is present.

PROBABLE CAUSES




DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE


STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics


Use the M.U.T.-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 2.
Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 54C - Troubleshooting ).

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III other system diagnosis code


Check again if the diagnosis code is set in the ETACS-ECU.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Diagnose the ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 54A, Troubleshooting ).
Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the M.U.T.-III Diagnosis code for other systems


Check if diagnosis code No. U1109 is set in the combination meter.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Diagnosis code recheck


Check again if the diagnosis code is set in the SRS-ECU.
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
(2)Turn the ignition switch from the LOCK (OFF) position to the ON position.
(3)Check if the diagnosis code is set.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Replace the ETACS-ECU. After replacing the combination meter, carry out the CAN bus diagnostics. Then go to Step 6.
A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent malfunction in the CAN bus line between the ETACS-ECU and the SRS-ECU. (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)

STEP 5. Diagnosis code recheck


Check again if the diagnosis code is set in the SRS-ECU.
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
(2)Turn the ignition switch from the LOCK (OFF) position to the ON position.
(3)Check if the diagnosis code is set.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Replace the SRS-ECU. After replacing the combination meter, carry out the CAN bus diagnostics. Then go to Step 6.
A poor connection, open circuit or other intermittent malfunction in the CAN bus line between the SRS-ECU and the ETACS-ECU. (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)

STEP 6. Check whether the diagnosis code is set again.


Recheck if the diagnosis code is set in the SRS-ECU.
(1)Erase the diagnosis code.
(2)Turn the ignition switch from "LOCK" (OFF) position to "ON" position.
(3)On completion, check whether the diagnosis code is set again.

Q. Is the diagnosis code set?

Return to Step 1.
The procedure is complete.
