Data transfer between Engine Control
Module (ECM) and CAN-capable control
modules, checking


Note:

Data exchange between individual control
modules occurs via a bus system.
The term "CAN-bus" refers to a system that
transports and distributes data.
The wire connections between the control
modules, via which data is transferred, are
referred to as data wires.
Data is transferred to the connected control
modules serially (one after the other) via these
data wires (i.e. engine speed, accelerator
position).

Checking bus system
The DTC table suggested checking the data
exchange between the Engine Control Module
(ECM) and CAN capable control modules.

Example 1:

From the DTCs stored in the memories, you have determined that control
module 1 is not communicating with control modules 2 and 3.
Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations Control module
DTCs stored in DTC memories:
1
Missing signal from control module 2Missing signal from control module 3
2 Missing signal from control module 1
3 Missing signal from control module 1
- Switch ignition off.
- Disconnect control modules connected across bus wires and check
bus wires for an open circuit. - Replace control module 1 if no malfunctions can be found in bus wires.

If you cannot determine a cause for the DTC
"Powertrain databus malfunction, check
whether the DTC is caused by one of the
control modules.
All control modules that use the CAN-bus are still
disconnected. Ignition is switched off.

- Connect one control module.

- Connect VAG 1551 scan tool. Switch ignition on,
and erase DTC memory of control module just
connected. End scan tool output using "End
Output" function 06.

- Switch ignition off and then on.

- Leave ignition on for 10 seconds. Read DTC
memory of control module just connected.

- If DTC "Powertrain databus malfunction" is
displayed, replace control module just
connected.

- If DTC "Powertrain databus malfunction" is not
displayed, connect next control module and
repeat procedure.
