DETERMINING SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY LOCATION (HS-CAN)

CAUTION:

  • Perform the following malfunction diagnosis only when it is diagnosed with a short to power supply by CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW. (See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW.)

System Wiring Diagram

Determination Procedure

CAUTION:

  • When disconnecting the connector, verify that there is no looseness, damage, deformation, corrosion, or poor connection of the connector terminals.

  • When inspecting the DLC-2, touch it with a paper clip or similar thin pin without directly inserting a tester into the terminals.

  • Disconnect the negative battery cable before performing any work that requires handling of connectors.

NOTE:

  • If the ignition does not turn on even if the ignition is switched ON, switch the ignition ON referring to the forced ignition ON procedure. (See FORCED IGNITION ON.)
