CAN Diagnosis with CONSULT

INFOID:0000000009720820

CAN diagnosis on CONSULT extracts the root cause by receiving the following information.
• Response to the system call
• Control unit diagnosis information
• Self-diagnosis
• CAN diagnostic support monitor

Self-Diagnosis

INFOID:0000000009720821

If communication signals cannot be transmitted or received among units communicating via CAN communica-
tion line, CAN communication-related DTC is displayed on the CONSULT “Self Diagnostic Result” screen.
NOTE:
The following table shows examples of CAN communication-related DTC. For other DTC, refer to the applica-
ble sections.

 (CONSULT indication)

DTC detection condition

Inspection/Action

U1000

CAN COMM CIRCUIT

ECM

When ECM is not transmitting or receiving CAN 
communication signal of OBD (emission-relat-
ed diagnosis) for 2 seconds or more.

Start the inspection. Re-
fer to the applicable sec-
tion of the indicated 
control unit.

Except 
for ECM

When a control unit (except for ECM) is not 
transmitting or receiving CAN communication 
signal for 2 seconds or more.

U1001

CAN COMM CIRCUIT

When ECM is not transmitting or receiving CAN communi-
cation signal other than OBD (emission-related diagnosis) 
for 2 seconds or more.

U1002

SYSTEM COMM

When a control unit is not transmitting or receiving CAN 
communication signal for 2 seconds or less.

U1010

CONTROL UNIT(CAN)

When an error is detected during the initial diagnosis for 
CAN controller of each control unit.

Replace the control unit 
indicating “U1010”.

How to Use CAN Communication Signal Chart

INFOID:0000000009720823

The CAN communication signal chart lists the signals needed for trouble diagnosis. It is useful for detecting
the root cause by finding a signal related to the symptom, and by checking transmission and reception unit.

Trouble Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009720825

INTERVIEW WITH CUSTOMER

Interview with the customer is important to detect the root cause of CAN communication system errors and to
understand vehicle condition and symptoms for proper trouble diagnosis.

Points in interview

• What: Parts name, system name
• When: Date, Frequency
• Where: Road condition, Place
• In what condition: Driving condition/environment
• Result: Symptom
NOTE:
• Check normal units as well as error symptoms.
- Example: Circuit between ECM and the combination meter is judged normal if the customer indicates

tachometer functions normally.

• When a CAN communication system error is present, multiple control units may malfunction or go into fail-

safe mode.
