STEP 27. Check the CAN_L-side bus line (communication 
line including ECUs) of the front wiring harness for short 
to ground. Measure the resistance at intermediate 
connector C-29.

CAUTION

A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

CAUTION

The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

(1) Disconnect intermediate connector C-29, and measure the 

resistance at the male side (at front wiring harness side).

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

CAUTION

Disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer 
to 

P.54C-4

.

(3) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(4) Measure the resistance between intermediate connector 

terminal 12 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

Q: Does the resistance measure 1 k

Ω or more?

YES : If the resistance measures 1 k

Ω or more, go to Step 

28   .

NO :  If the resistance measures less than 1 k

Ω, go to Step 

42.

STEP 28. Check joint connector (3) C-02 for loose, 
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back 
in the connector.

CAUTION

The strand end of the twisted wire should be within 10 cm 
(4 inches) from the connector. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

Check the joint connector at the wiring harness side for loose, 
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in 
the connector, and also check the short pin behind the connec-
tor for corrosion, deformation and delamination.

Q: Is joint connector (3) C-02 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 29.
NO :  Repair the damaged parts. Replace the joint 

connector as necessary.

STEP 29. Check the CAN_L line (communication line 
including the combination meter) between joint connector 
(3) and the combination meter connector for short to 
ground. Measure the resistance at joint connector (3) C-02.

CAUTION

A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

CAUTION

The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

(1) Disconnect joint connector (3) C-02, and measure the 

resistance at the wiring harness side of joint connector (3) 
C-02.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

CAUTION

Disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer 
to 

P.54C-4

.

(3) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(4) Measure the resistance between joint connector (3) 

terminal 15 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

Q: Does the resistance measure 1 k

Ω or more?

YES : If the resistance measures 1 k

Ω or more, go to Step 

31   .

NO :  If the resistance measures less than 1 k

Ω, go to Step 

30.

STEP 30. Check the CAN_L line (communication line only) 
between joint connector (3) and the combination meter 
connector for short to ground. Measure the resistance at 
joint connector (3) C-02.

CAUTION

A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

CAUTION

The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to 

P.54C-4

.

(1) Disconnect joint connector (3) C-02 and combination meter 

connector C-101, and measure the resistance at the wiring 
harness side of joint connector (3) C-02.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

CAUTION

Disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer 
to 

P.54C-4

.

(3) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

(4) Measure the resistance between joint connector (3) 

terminal 15 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

CAUTION

Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair proce-
dure. For details refer to 

P.54C-5

.

Q: Does the resistance measure 1 k

Ω or more?

YES : If the resistance measures 1 k

Ω or more, diagnose 

CAN bus lines thoroughly by referring to 

P.54C-323

.

NO :  If the resistance measures less than 1 k

Ω, repair the 

wiring harness between joint connector (3) and the 
combination meter connector.
