Title: NETWORKING: CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM (for Gasoline Model): Open in Bus 3 Main Bus Line; 2019 - 2024 MY RAV4 [11/2018 -        ]

Open in Bus 3 Main Bus Line

DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between the CAN main bus wire and/or CAN branch wire when the resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) or 19 (CAYH) and 20 (CAYL) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) is 70 Ω or higher.

Symptom

Trouble Area
  • Resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) is 70 Ω or higher.
  • Resistance between terminals 19 (CAYH) and 20 (CAYL) of the central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) is 70 Ω or higher.
  • CAN main bus wire
  • Central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU)
  • No. 5 CAN junction connector

This malfunction is not related to the lines of a CAN branch or to ECUs or sensors connected to a CAN branch.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

NOTICE:

  • Because the order of diagnosis is important to allow correct diagnosis, make sure to begin troubleshooting using How to Proceed with Troubleshooting when CAN communication system related DTCs are output.

  • Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the ignition switch off and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more without operating the key or any switches, or opening or closing the doors. After that, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.
  • After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

  • After performing repairs, perform the DTC check procedure and confirm that the DTCs are not output again.

    DTC check procedure: Turn the ignition switch to ON and wait for 1 minute or more. Then operate the suspected malfunctioning system and drive the vehicle at 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for 5 minutes or more.

  • After the repair, perform the CAN bus check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed as normal.

HINT:

  • Operating the ignition switch, any switches or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication with the CAN, which causes resistance variation.
  • Even after DTCs are cleared, if a DTC is stored again after driving the vehicle for a while, the malfunction may be occurring due to vibration of the vehicle. In such a case, wiggling the ECUs or wire harness while performing the inspection below may help determine the cause of the malfunction.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS WIRE (NO. 5 CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR)

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

(b) Disconnect the No. 5 CAN junction connector.
