to Step 6.

NO : 

A poor connection, open circuit or other 
intermittent malfunction is present in the 
CAN bus lines between the CAN box unit 
(MMCS) and the combination meter (Refer 
to GROUP 00 

− How to use 

troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points ).

Code No.U1000 OSS CAN timeout

CAUTION

• If the diagnosis code No. U1000 is set, be sure 

to diagnose the CAN bus line.

• Before replacing the ECU or combination 

meter, ensure that the power supply circuit, 
the earth circuit and the communication cir-
cuit are normal.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

If the signal from OSS-ECU cannot be received, the 

combination meter sets the diagnosis code No. 
U1000.

JUDGEMENT CRITERIA

With the ignition switch is at ON position, the diagno-
sis code No. U1190 is not stored and the diagnosis 
code No. U1195 is not stored, if the communication 
with OSS-ECU cannot be established for 2500 ms or 
more, the combination meter determines that a prob-
lem has occurred.

.)

JUDGEMENT CRITERIA

ETACS-ECU sends the diagnosis code (U code) 
detection permission or prohibition signal to each 
ECU connected to the CAN bus line. If the combina-
tion meter cannot receive the diagnosis code (U 
code) detection permission or prohibition signal for 5 
seconds after turning the electric motor switch to ON 
position, diagnosis code U1190 will be set.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Malfunction of CAN bus line

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?

YES : 

Go to Step 2

NO : 

Repair the CAN bus line (Refer to GROUP 
54C 

− Troubleshooting ). On completion, go 

to Step 3.

STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.
Check again if the diagnosis code is set to the combi-
nation meter.

The procedure is complete.

STEP 3. Check whether the diagnosis code is 
reset.
Recheck if the diagnosis code is set to the combina-
tion meter.
(1) Erase the diagnosis code.
(2) Turn the ignition motor switch from "LOCK" (OFF) 

position to "ON" position.

(3) On completion, check that the diagnosis code is 

reset.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

Return to Step 1.

NO : 

The procedure is complete.

Code No.U1195 Coding not completed

CAUTION

• If the diagnosis code No. U1195 is set, diag-

nose the CAN bus lines.

• Before replacing the combination meter, 

ensure that the power supply circuit, the earth 
circuit and the communication circuit are nor-
mal.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

If the vehicle information data is not registered to the 
combination meter, the combination meter sets the 
diagnosis code No. U1195.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

With the global coding counter value "0," if all the glo-
bal coding data (vehicle information) are not stored, 
the combination meter determines that a problem 
has occurred.
