MOST Bus Diagnosis
Status Wakeup
MOST control modules require high current during standby operation and must be discon-
nected or put in sleep mode to prevent the vehicle battery from being discharged. In case
of a fault on the the MOST network that continuously wakes up, the entire MOST bus will
be woken up. The Control Display will wake up the CAN Bus and all the vehicle busses will
be woken up. This will lead to battery discharge.
It is of great benefit to know which module initiated the wake up call. In order to find out
which MOST node woke up the MOST bus, the following procedure is performed:
In Control Unit Functions, press “STATUS WAKEUP”
Three different response are possible:
 Control Module woke up
 Control Module woken up
 Control Module not initialized
The Control Module with the status “Control Module woke up” is the module that woke up
the rest of the MOST bus.
This diagnosis only informs which control module woke, not the reason for the wake up,
diagnostic testing should be performed on the control module and related equipment.
