Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the ignition switch off and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more without operating the key or any switches, or opening or closing the doors. After that, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and leave the vehicle for 1 minute or more before measuring the resistance.
After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

After performing repairs, perform the DTC check procedure and confirm that the DTCs are not output again.
DTC check procedure: Turn the LDA main switch on and then drive the vehicle at a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) or more for approximately 5 minutes or more.
After the repair, perform the CAN bus check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed as normal.

HINT:

Before disconnecting related connectors for inspection, push in on each connector body to check that the connector is not loose or disconnected.
When a connector is disconnected, check that the terminals and connector body are not cracked, deformed or corroded.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK FOR OPEN IN CAN BUS LINES (POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY BRANCH LINE)

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

(b) Disconnect the power steering ECU assembly connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
F23-7 (CANH) - F23-8 (CANL)	Cable disconnected from negative (-) battery terminal	54 to 69 Ω

*a	Front view of wire harness connector (to Power Steering ECU Assembly)

REPAIR OR REPLACE CAN BRANCH LINES OR CONNECTOR (POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY)

2.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)

(a) Disconnect the power steering ECU assembly connector.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
F68-2 (PGND) - Body ground	Cable disconnected from negative (-) battery terminal	Below 1 Ω

*a	Front view of wire harness connector (to Power Steering ECU Assembly)

(d) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
F23-1 (IG) - Body ground	Ignition switch ON	11 to 14 V

REPLACE POWER STEERING ECU ASSEMBLY

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)
