Code No.U1109: ETACS-ECU Time-out


caution
  • If diagnosis code U1109 is set in the combination meter, diagnose the CAN main bus line.
  • Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the communication circuit is normal.
note When the diagnosis codes relating to the CAN communication error are set, make sure of the vehicle equipment. When the vehicle is not equipped with the system the combination meter communicates to, the diagnosis code is always set. This is not abnormal.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT



COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM


Current trouble
  • Connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus lines between the ETACS-ECU and the combination meter, the power supply system to the ETACS-ECU, the ETACS-ECU itself, or the combination meter may be defective.
Past trouble
  • Carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus lines between the ETACS-ECU and the combination meter, and the power supply system to the ETACS-ECU. For diagnosis procedures, refer to "How to cope with past trouble" (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points ).
    note For a past trouble, you may not find it by the M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics even if there is any failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points . and check the CAN bus lines. You can narrow down the possible cause of the trouble by referring to the diagnosis code, which is set regarding the CAN communication-linked ECUs (Refer to GROUP 54D - CAN Bus Line Diagnostic Flow ).

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Damaged harness wires and connectors
  • Malfunction of ETACS-ECU
  • Malfunction of combination meter

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
