ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION


id094000101700


Outline

•  The on-board diagnostic function is incorporated into the PCM, EPS control module, ABS HU/CM, and instrument cluster. This function can narrow down CAN system malfunction locations.
•  The on-board diagnostic function consists of the following functions: a failure detection function, which detects malfunctions in CAN system-related parts; a memory function, which stores detected DTCs; a self-malfunction diagnostic function, which indicates system malfunctions using DTCs and warning lights; and a PID/data monitoring function, which verifies the input/output condition of specific input/output signals being read out.
•  Using a WDS or equivalent, DTCs can be read out and deleted, and the PID/data monitoring function can be activated.
•  The CAN system has a fail-safe function. When a malfunction occurs in CAN system, the transmission module sends a warning signal and the receiving module illuminates the warning light.

Failure detection function

•  The failure detection function in each CAN system-related module detects malfunctions in input/output signals.
•  This function outputs the DTC for the detected malfunction to the DLC-2, and also sends the detected result to the memory function and fail-safe function.

Memory Function

•  The memory function stores the DTC for the malfunction of input/output signals for related parts, as determined by the failure detection function.

Self-Malfunction Diagnostic Function

•  The self-malfunction diagnostic function determines that there is a malfunction, and outputs a signal, as a DTC, to the DLC-2. The DTC can be read out using a WDS or equivalent.

PID/Data Monitoring Function

•  The PID/data monitoring function is used to freely select and read out, in real time, the monitored items for the input/output signals of the ABS HU/CM and instrument cluster.
•  A WDS or equivalent is used to read out the PID/data monitor information.

Narrowing Down Malfunction Locations

•  The on-board diagnostic function can narrow down a CAN system malfunction location by verifying the detected DTC and PID/data monitor information from each module. Refer to the Self-Malfunction Diagnostic Function and PID/Data Monitoring Function for detailed information regarding DTCs and the PID/data monitor. (See Self-Malfunction Diagnostic Function.) (See PID/Data Monitoring Function.)

3.  If there is a communication error between the ABS HU/CM and PCM, or between the instrument cluster and PCM, even if the communication between the ABS HU/CM and the instrument cluster is normal, it is probable that there is a malfunction in the PCM or PCM-related wiring harnesses.
