Lost Communication with "Seat Control Module A"

No communication from the position control ECU and switch assembly LH continues.
  • Position control ECU and switch assembly LH branch line or connector
  • Power source circuit of position control ECU and switch assembly LH
  • Position control ECU and switch assembly LH ground circuit
  • Position control ECU and switch assembly LH

HINT:

The main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) stores DTCs when it detects a communication stop or network communication error for ECUs connected to sub bus 1.

HINT:

This diagnostic procedure is for when DTC U0208 is output by the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) (Techstream display: Main Body).

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Before measuring the resistance of the CAN bus, turn the engine 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 engine 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 engine switch on (IG) and wait for at least 20 seconds.
  • After the repair, perform the CAN bus check and check that all the ECUs and sensors connected to the CAN communication system are displayed.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

HINT:

  • Operating the engine switch, any other switches or a door triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.
  • Even after DTCs are cleared, if a DTC is stored again after driving the vehicle for a while, the malfunction may be occurring due to vibration of the vehicle. In such a case, wiggling the ECUs or wire harness while performing the inspection below may help determine the cause of the malfunction.

PROCEDURE

1.

RECONFIRM DTC OUTPUT

(a) Reconfirm DTCs.

HINT:

If DTC U1002 is output from Main Body of the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU), this indicates a sub bus 1 malfunction. Troubleshoot for DTC U1002 and check for malfunctions in sub bus 1.
