Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual: Check Bus 3 Lines for Short Circuit

Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual / Power Source & Network / Networking / Can Communication System / Check Bus 3 Lines for Short Circuit

DESCRIPTION

There may be a short circuit between the bus 3 main lines and/or bus 3 branch lines when the resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of the network gateway ECU is below 54 Ω.

Symptom

Trouble Area

Resistance between terminals 6 (CA3H) and 21 (CA3L) of network gateway ECU is below 54 Ω.
  • Short in CAN main bus line
  • Short in CAN branch line
  • DCM (telematics transceiver) (w/ Manual (SOS) Switch)
  • Radio receiver assembly
  • Network gateway ECU
  • No. 6 CAN junction connector

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

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

NOTICE:

  • Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the engine 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 engine 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.

  • 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.

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

    DTC check procedure: Turn the engine switch on (IG) 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.

HINT:

  • Operating the engine switch, any other switches or a door triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.
  • 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 SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (NO. 6 CAN JUNCTION CONNECTOR)

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

(b) Disconnect the J98 No. 6 CAN junction connector.

3.

CHECK FOR SHORT IN CAN BUS LINES (ECU, SENSOR)

(a) Reconnect all wire harness connectors.

(b) Disconnect the connector that includes terminals CANH and CANL from the ECU or sensor to which the short circuited branch line is connected.
