POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUIT

Ground Inspection

INFOID:0000000009483825

Ground connections are very important to the proper operation of electrical and electronic circuits. Ground

connections are often exposed to moisture, dirt and other corrosive elements. The corrosion (rust) can

become an unwanted resistance. This unwanted resistance can change the way a circuit works.

Electronically controlled circuits are very sensitive to proper grounding. A loose or corroded ground can drasti-

cally affect an electronically controlled circuit. A poor or corroded ground can easily affect the circuit. Even

when the ground connection looks clean, there can be a thin film of rust on the surface.

When inspecting a ground connection follow these rules:

• Remove the ground bolt or screw.

• Inspect all mating surfaces for tarnish, dirt, rust, etc.

• Clean as required to assure good contact.

• Reinstall bolt or screw securely.

• Inspect for “add-on” accessories which may be interfering with the ground circuit.

• If several wires are crimped into one ground eyelet terminal, check for proper crimps. Check all of the wires

are clean, securely fastened and providing a good ground path. If multiple wires are cased in one eyelet

check no ground wires have excess wire insulation.

For detailed ground distribution information, refer to 

GI-36, "Work Flow"

U0101 CAN COMM CIRCUIT

Description

INFOID:0000000009483826

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.

On Board Diagnosis Logic

INFOID:0000000009483827

DTC Confirmation Procedure

INFOID:0000000009483828

1. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 3 seconds.
