Crazy Camry Cluster: ABS & CAN Diagnostics

[@davepitsch6411]

I was an old school mechanic, I never got into the computerized stuff... I never would have thought an ABS module could corrupt the data enough to mess with the gauge cluster. It's awesome to watch you further diagnose it with a breakout box to further explain to your viewers what is happening and why replacing that module would fix it. This is definitely one of the better channels I've seen. Thank you. I am unfortunately disabled, so I I fix cars vicariously through watching mechanics do it on KZbin. And I still get to learn stuff which is even more awesome.

Do we have to program it after fixing the module

[@asifahsanullah]

This is what I call 100 times better approach to diagnostic (but one has to have the tools to do so). Most of the videos I found were quick replacement of the control module as a fix. Thanks to pry-opening the control module, I wanted to see components inside there. Most of the black transistors/triac/regulator (can't tell without knowing the numbers on them) can be tested and replaced if needed. The sub module with surface mount components where the bus connector is more complex based on what is busted. Again, thanks for the video!

[@bostedtap8399]

Single shot Ivan, no magazine required. Unusual fault. Thanks for sharing.

[@nitrous4blood19]

It’s funny, I came across this video when my car is having almost this exact same issue. Love that you go so in depth with it. The biggest difference is that I can’t talk to the ECM/TCM when the ABS goes haywire. I have the DTC C1301 stored and that’s it

[@frankie2234]

HERE'S WHAT I DID: 2 months ago it happened to me. Same screwy dash, warm a/c. Got another ABS module from auto junker, and it didn't work either. Lost $200.00 because they wouldn't take it back. Bumped into Module Masters on Google and sent it to them for repair. They fixed it for $200.00 +, and did a good job. Just slapped it back on and it worked. Side note: car ran pretty rough for about a week. Car had to relearn itself, but it's fine now. You can drive it with it messed up. You have to put a G.P.S. app on your phone to tell you your speed....hey it works. Big pain in the butt for several months. Went through 3 mechanics. They all said go to the dealer. Also you don't have to program the module, just bolt it back on.

[@darnellsims5343]

I’m trying to get the car from Ohio to Georgia do you think it’s a good idea

[@travispeters1905]

Which place did you have it fixed at?

[@Officialplayer101]

From the U0073 (Bus Off) it's most certainly the ABS module itself, which has gone nuts. So each ECU has it's own TEC (Transmission error counter) which gets increased for every broken transmission or any garbage send out by it. After surpassing a certain value the ECU enters bus-off mode and forced to shut down and not participate on the CAN bus anymore, to protect the network from distracting and stacked messages, like in this case the ABS module. These cause the cluster to go crazy until the ECU enters bus-off. In some cases ECUs try to recover from bus-off, as e.g. the ABS is safety related. Often times vehicles enter limp-home but in others the module seems to be fine after being restarted for a few moments until it's acting up again.

[@SomnoNaut]

Have same on 08 Camry. Looking at waveforms, it shows that this is a connection issue, as the voltage difference (good part of signal) is being lost due to intermittent connectivity issue (dropouts.) I read on Toyota forums that someone fixed this by pushing the connector towards driver side and wedging hard plastic between housing and connector. This makes sense as if there is a failure of an electronic part that usually is not intermittent. It is all or none. So, the randomness of it happening, with the exact same behavior, actually points more heavily towards connectivity. I did not see if you had a live feed of "good" wheel speed reading while moving with display dancing (that's what I call it.) If the wheel sensors are dropping, then that could lend more info to troubleshooting. I bit the bullet and sprayed the removed ABS module with electronic contact cleaner all throughout but only heard of this forced position fix yesterday so have not tried it. The cleaner did not provide results. I am thinking of doing what I do for other electronic connectors and that is stick a tiny screwdriver blade into pins and slightly "misalign" them so that there is more forced contact on the pin.

[@mikedouglas6538]

THIS! I was getting ready to trudge through a self-service salvage yard in the 103-degree heat for the module when I saw your suggestion. What the hell, right? The cluster was acting up. I put in the wedge. It stopped. I took out the wedge. It acted up. I did it 5 times and it worked everytime. I recommend Tubers try your fix first before investing time and money.

[@claudalicious1]

​@mikedouglas6538 how do you put in the wedge?

[@oldhvacguy8427]

Hi Ivan!! I agree with you. My 1994 Chevy K1500 has the pitiful Rear wheel only ABS system on it. It hasn't worked for years and I don't miss it. Maybe one day when I have nothing better to do I'll dig in and test it, but after driving lots of other vehicles that never had an ABS system I kinda doubt it. Keep up the good work. Love the Vids! Thanx for what you do.

Mr Google knows everything. Great video on using common sense and getting job done.

[@georgebonney90]

Only on ur channel do we get to see the inside of a ABS module, thx buddy

[@SalimKhan-gk1fh]

Hi Ivan those two prongs inside the pump housing are for the brake pressure sensor the prongs clip into the circuit board And tell the circuit board when full brake pressure is applied hence activating the ABS. I think you should look at the old circuit board with a magnifying glass attached to your computerAnd zoom in you will probably see broken or cracked soldered joints. The Bosch units suffer from this problem

[@philjerome9795]

It's a common problem on that generation of Camry. The last one I did, in addition to the crazy dash cluster, the A/C wasn't working. I unplugged the ABS module and plugged it back in. It temporarily got everything to work again. I picked up a refurbished module, problem solved.

[@guidofa]

Hi Ivan, Inside the ABS, those two spiked things, are the connectors for the ABS pump motor.

[@somerandomguy3868]

Personally I have mixed feelings about abs, however I still think the pros outweigh the cons, good video Ivan thanks for taking the time to share it with us

[@kthwkr]

Would be interesting to use the subtraction feature of the scope. Since those are differential signals, subtract them and see if the result looks good. It's a way to pick up glitches that are only on one side of the bus. Had a CD player once that killed the CAN bus and the ABS was on the same bus and so it didn't work. The CD player was working fine but it was difficult to tell that it's communication with the rest of the car was dead. GM had put safety equipment on the same bus as the entertainment system?! Yes they had.

[@joehomanick]

Hey Ivan I just had the exact same issue with the cluster . Turned out to be the abs module . The ac also stopped working too . I changed the abs module and boom 💥 it was fixed

[@SomnoNaut]

But in changing out the module could you have inadvertently just provided a more snug fit for the connectors, and not really had to change the part as it is not actually bad, but just having intermittent connection issue. I suspect the issue will crop up again in the future.

[@joehomanick]

@@SomnoNaut this was over 3 years ago and no issues at all . Also when the abs module was plugged in the issues arose . When I unplugged the abs module all good .

[@SomnoNaut]

@@joehomanick Right, the connector pin/socket connection could have been the interruption causing the issue is all I was trying to bring up. That can only be tested by using the same module but mucking with the pins and sockets and seeing if they make better connection. The one you replaced it with could have just been tighter to begin with.

I use KZbin a lot for research. :) Great job Ivan.

[@n3lee]

is it just me or did you see it flake out when you were disconnecting it right before the plug came out?

The case of the crazy Camry cluster conundrum! There was a company that refurbished the ABS module for my 99 Passat years ago.

[@williegillie5712]

Those two long pins at the bottom of the module I think we’re the problem. You should look at the bad module to see if the green crusties aren’t inside where those two pins connect into the module. I usually use KZbin or the internet to see if someone else had a similar problem or check for TSBs on what I’m working on. Nice Job Ivan. You and Eric are my two fav. Diagnosticians.

I had a similar problem in Australia with a Camry Grande model. I replaced the factory navigation stereo and one of the wires was grounded that caused the same issues as yours. It was only when I double checked and found the wire and also managed to get some wiring diagrams that show some sort of speedo connection to the factory stereo for the navigation system.

Remove the module, spray with contact cleaner, reinstall. Some mysterious fixes by taking it apart and putting it back together then it works if lucky. No clue why but works sometimes, worth a try.

[@TheCampsies]

Had a MK1 Focus a few years back in the UK. Cluster would go nuts at least once on every trip. Engine would also cut out. Pure chance I found a post online advising that the speedo sender unit screwed into the gear box was the culprit, I was very sceptical but had run out of ideas, so I replaced the sender. Car ran like a dream for the next 3 years til I traded it in. Would never have suspected the resolution to that problem.

[@zoidberg444]

Interesting. My first suspicion with a MK1 Focus would have been water ingress and moisture build up behind the dashboard. My mate had an 02 reg where he had all sorts of crazy gremlins and a lot of the connectors were full of green crusties. We just deleted the connectors and soldered a spliced all the loom together. Cured most of them. He wrote the car off a few years later in an accident. Not bad for a few hours work.

[@Nemesis-yn5wv]

Those two long pins that were coming out of the abs valve block do actually go all the way through. They take power from the board to the pump motor. Those pins are power and ground for the motor.

I've seen similar weird behavior when there is no solid connection between the battery negative and the engine and/or when connection was somehow corroded or removed between the engine and the chassis. A lot of times they would complain about hard to move AT shifter linkage. I always check to make sure there is a solid connection from the battery negative to the engine. It's important to visually inspect the wires because the meter won't always show it.

[@mikechiodetti4482]

Might want to let the owner drive for a week or so to be sure. What did the ABS connector on both the wiring and module sides look like? Networks can be fussy things. Low voltage and near zero current. The signal is the only clue to the problem. If the connector had pass through wiring for the network, it could have been jumpered and driven to see if the problem went away. I was thinking while it ran good, what happens when you push on the brake pedal? What did the ABS do when the system was running normally, and you forced it into an ABS stop? How well was it working when the system was good? Just throwing some ideas out here. Sometimes an intermittent can be forced into showing itself, like rough roads, railroad tracks, left or right turns, but you were lucky it appeared right away. Nice diag using the Pico! Hope the replacement module works for a long time.

I like your videos and how you approach things from the practical side. What I don’t like though is your obvious disregard for all the safety systems in modern vehicles. It starts with to not buckle up on public roads and ends with permanently disabling ABS. Since this appears to be legal or don’t care in your state you are probably allowed to do this but I still think this is a bad attitude which lowers the safety on the road.

Being it did not change when you unplug it maybe the module was shutting down changing to a default strategy and then not disrupting the network instead of coming back online like you thought.
