U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006237897
 CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communica tion line for real time applications. It is an on board
multiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. A
modern vehicle is equipped with many ECMs, and each cont rol unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CA N communication, two control units are connected
with two communication lines (CAN H-line, CAN L-line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with
less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receive s data but selectively reads required data only.
 It transmits the vehicle status to pre-crash seat belt control unit using the CAN communication system.
 It consists of CAN system (unified meter and A/ C amp., ICC sensor, BCM, steering angle sensor).
 Refer to LAN-27, "
CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM : CA N System Specification Chart".

Malfunction Malfunctioning condition
The temperature difference between the seatback ther-
mal electric unit and seat cushion thermal electric unit is
more than 30 °C  When it detects for 4 seconds that the temperature difference between
the seatback thermal electric unit and seat cushion thermal electric unit
is more than 30 °, it stops the output to the thermal electric unit, activates
the climate controlled seat blower motor at the maximum position, and
sends the external airflow for 30 seconds
 If the temperature difference is still more than 30 °C after 30 seconds
pass, it stops all output and enters the system OFF condition
 When the temperature difference between seatback thermal electric unit and seat cushion thermal electric unit becomes less than 20 °C, the sys-
tem recovers automatically
 If it detects that the temperature difference is more than 30 °C after the
automatic system recovery, it immediately stops all output and enters the
system OFF condition
NOTE:
When the switch operation is performed before entering the system OFF
condition, the fail-safe mode is reset.
The temperature of thermal electric unit is more than
11 0 °C in the HEAT mode (any thermal electric unit in the
seatback or seat cushion)  When it detects for 4 seconds that the temperature of the thermal electric
unit is more than 110 °C, it stops the output to the thermal electric unit,
activates the climate controlled seat blower motor at the maximum posi-
tion, and sends the external airflow for 30 seconds
 If the temperature does not become less than 105 °C after 30 seconds
pass, it stops all output and enters the system OFF condition
 When the temperature of the thermal electric unit becomes less than 105 °C, the system recovers automatically
