DTC U1000 CAN COMMUNICATION LINE

PFP:23710

Description

ECS00EFI

CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent malfunction detection ability.
Many electronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with 2 communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.

On Board Diagnosis Logic

ECS00EFJ

●

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

●

Diagnostic trouble code “U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT” with CONSULT-II or 17th judgement flicker with-
out CONSULT-II is detected when TCM cannot communicate to other control units.

Possible Cause

ECS00EFK

Harness or connectors
(CAN communication line is open or shorted.)

DTC Confirmation Procedure

ECS00EFL

NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch “OFF”
and wait at least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
After the repair, perform the following procedure to confirm the malfunction is eliminated.

 WITH CONSULT-II

1.

Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)

2.

Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “ENGINE” with CONSULT-II.

3.

Start engine and wait for at least 6 seconds.

4.

If DTC is detected, go to 

AT-105, "Diagnostic Procedure"

 .

 WITH GST

Follow the procedure “WITH CONSULT-II”.

On Board Diagnosis Logic

ECS00EFQ

●

This is not an OBD-II self-diagnostic item. 

●

Diagnostic trouble code “P0615 STARTER RELAY/CIRC” with CONSULT-II or 14th judgement flicker
without CONSULT-II is detected when park/neutral (PNP) relay (starter relay) is switched “ON” other than
at “P” or “N” position. (Or when switched “OFF” at “P” or “N” position).

Possible Cause

ECS00EFR

●

Harness or connectors
[The park/neutral position (PNP) relay (starter relay) and TCM circuit is open or shorted.]

●

Park/neutral position (PNP) relay (starter relay)
