Transmission Control Module Can-Bus Terminal Resistance, Checking
Transmission Control Module Can-Bus Terminal Resistance, Checking
The Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) communicates with all databus capable control modules via a CAN databus.
These databus capable control modules are connected via two data bus wires which are twisted together (CAN_High and CAN_Low), and exchange
information (messages). Missing information on the databus is recognized as a malfunction and stored.
Trouble-free operation of the CAN-bus requires that it have a terminal resistance. The central terminal resistor is located in the Engine Control
Module (ECM) (J623).
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
‹› Multimeter.
