COMPONENTS FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
CAN CommunicationADS000RY
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
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.
For details, refer to LAN-30, "
CAN Communication Unit" .
Component parts Function
AWD control unit

Controls driving force distribution by signals from each sensor and switch from rear wheel driving
mode (0:100) to AWD mode (50:50).

2WD mode is available by fail-safe function if malfunction is detected in AWD system.
Wheel sensors Detects wheel speed.
AWD solenoid Controls electric controlled coupling by command current from AWD control unit.
Electric controlled coupling Transmits driving force to front final drive.
AWD warning lamp

Illuminates if malfunction is detected in electrical system of AWD system.

There is 1 blink in 2 seconds if rotation difference of front wheels and rear wheels is large.

There are 2 blinks in 1 second if load is still applied to driving parts.
ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit) Transmits the following signals via CAN communication to AWD control unit.

Vehicle speed signal

Stop lamp switch signal (brake signal)
ECM Transmits the following signals via CAN communication to AWD control unit.

Accelerator pedal position signal

Engine speed signal
Unified meter and A/C amp. Transmits conditions of parking brake switch via CAN communication to AWD control unit.

3. Stop vehicle. With engine at idle, touch “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”.
Display shows malfunction experienced since the last erasing
operation.
NOTE:

The details for “TIME” are as follow:
–“0”: Error currently detected with AWD control unit.
–Except for “0”: Error detected in the past and memorized
with AWD control unit.
Detects frequency of driving after DTC occurs (frequency
of turning ignition switch “ON/OFF”).
Display Item List
CAUTION:

If “CAN COMM CIRCUIT [U1000]” is displayed with other DTCs, first perform the trouble diagnosis for CAN communica-
tion line.

Make sure that ABS warning lamp turns OFF by driving for a minute at vehicle speed of 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more after
turning ignition switch "OFF" if AWD warning lamp turns ON with system malfunction of “ABS SYSTEM [C1203]”. AWD
warning lamp may not turn OFF if it is normal unless ignition switch turns OFF at once and engine restarts after that.
How to Erase Self-Diagnostic Results
1. Perform applicably inspection of malfunctioning item and then repair or replace.
2. Start engine and drive at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approx. 1 minute.
3. Make sure that ABS warning lamp turns OFF. NOTE:
Make sure that ABS warning lamp turns OFF by driving for a minute at vehicle speed of 30 km/h
(19 MPH) or more after turning ignition switch "OFF" if AWD warning lamp turns ON with system
malfunction of “ABS SYSTEM [C1203]”. AWD warning lamp may not turn OFF if it is normal unless
ignition switch turns OFF at once and engine restarts after that.
4. Turn ignition switch “OFF” to erase memory.
5. Start engine and select “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” mode for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD” with CONSULT-II.
6. Touch “ERASE” on CONSULT-II screen to erase DTC memory. CAUTION:
If memory cannot be erased, perform applicably diagnosis.
7. Drive at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approx. 1 minute. Be sure AWD warning lamp is OFF.
