Description

INFOID:0000000005258737

The active brake booster consists of a vacuum booster, an active booster control group and a delta stroke

sensor. If a brake booster system malfunction occurs due to loss of vacuum, the delta stroke sensor will signal

the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) that a booster malfunction has occurred. The active booster

then applies supplemental force to the master cylinder relative to the amount of force exerted on the brake

pedal.

U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT

U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT

Description

INFOID:0000000005258742

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 error detection ability. Many elec-

tronic 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 connected 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.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000005258744

1.

CONNECTOR INSPECTION

1. Turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector, and check

the terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness, and so on. If there is a malfunction, repair or

replace the terminal.

2. Reconnect connector and perform self-diagnosis.
Is “CAN COMM CIRCUIT” displayed in self-diagnosis display items?

YES

>> Print out the self-diagnostic results, and refer to 

LAN-14, "Trouble Diagnosis Flow Chart"

.

NO

>> Connector terminal is loose, damaged, open, or shorted.
