Can-Bus Terminal Resistance, Powertrain, Checking: Notes

General Description 

The Engine Control Module -J623- communicates with all Data Bus capable control modules via a CAN Data Bus.

These Data Bus 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 Data Bus 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 -J623-.
