This is a great educational masterpiece to anyone who doesn't know how communication system works. You tickled every possible spot, Powers grounds, communication lines, canbus lines, gateway module, can junction connectors, datalink. Everything everything.

I love how it tells you to see the owners manual. The owners manual is not going to tell you what's going on. It will most likely explain to you not to drink automotive fluids, how to do basic driving skills, and not to drive with the hood or doors open.

[@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT]

That dashboard looks like it is in lamp test mode :-) I really value your diagnostic strategy and your effort to explain it, Jake! After you detected the shorts, I was betting on a loom smashed against metal somewhere, but disconnecting the power steering removed the short, proving wiring is OK. Both modules damaged in such low mileage is weird... Hope there is a Part 2. Great video!

[@kennedysgarage3281]

I like you always have these questions in my mind (but why ?) Very good canbus tutorial though Jake, a good learning video 🙏🙏

[@phillipzan2005]

Yes the Toyota, especially newer ones have very complex networking. But I break it down like this. In your case ABS no communication and also with scan tool. I test like you did at the ABS and then go back to the wiring diagram. When I get to the junction connectors of the diagram, I just pick a circuit that is tied into the ABS and see where it leads. So for example the steering sensor is tied into the ABS. From their I see "Well can I talk to that module or is any other module complaining that it can't talk to that module?" If the answer is yes, I move on. If the answer is no, I'll go to that component and test there. With the connector plugged in and unplugged afterwards, because a bad module or sensor could be bringing down the network. From there depending on what I find I just work the checklist. If all modules test out good, well it is time for some ohm checking(yes I know that sucks and be very time consuming to do) and maybe jumpering wires afterwards. Last thing I will do is short to ground/voltage and Terminator resisting check. Usually at that point that will give me direction. Definitely one thing with complex networking is I ask 21 questions to the client to help me pinpoint where I may want to start looking after studying the diagram. Also if anyone is curious, pretty much all the Gateway Network Modules are in passenger side behind the glove box. Good video sir.

[@hariranormal5584]

Dang this is your average Jaguar vehicle

[@kenputt1750]

The power steering was suspect as it didn't work right at the start. Seems to be more to this than you would ever think, 14000 miles. A dealer may have run this though the auction rather than try to fix it. Flood car maybe.

[@gregwarren8583]

OL on a digital meter stands for Over Limit, meaning that the reading is greater than the limits of the current range (manual or auto ranging).

[@BAJARACER43X]

Had a similar problem on a 2011 Camry, no dash, A/C inop, the CAN was shorted , ended up being the steering angle sensor blew the resistor and shut down the CAN

Great diagnosis, I wonder how Toyota handles ownership transfers regarding warranty. Both parts are pricey if not covered. I think we're not done yet with the window switch issue. This car is too new for all of these problems. Brings to mind problems with the lighting strike pick up truck repair video...

[@imfloridano5448]

Why the manufacturers don't make diagnostic software that puts individual modules in a loop so the output can be compared to manufacturers designed signal outputs. Basically it loops the module to check all signals, voltages, and grounds. Knowing the correct frequency and voltage output would be very helpful along with placing them on the schematics and wiring diagram. You don't know if you should have 3.5vdc or lower as an output. The assumption is a 5vdc output similar to the reference voltage

[@autodiagyt]

Toyota actually does a great job of telling you in service information what a wire should have. Its call Terminal of ECU just find the document for the module in question.

[@philh9238]

Seen a diagnose Dan video about the ohm meter he was checking a wire from end to end it showed good continuity but it ended up being a shorted to ground wire. I’ll try and find it again to link it in the next comment. So after that I always check it for a short to ground after checking continuity from end to end

[@mikechiodetti4482]

The power steering module does look bad. Maybe the ABS module has an intermittent problem, but I'd make sure it's bad and not a pin fitment problem or something else causing the ABS module not to work, according to the scanner.

[@autoacoustics4938]

Low battery and jump starts can cause multiple modules to go at once.

[@NiclasRoth-s8y]

volvo construction equipment A25G-A45G has 40ohm can lines.

[@tonyfremont]

Could have been wrecked in the past or maybe flood damaged. Or might be a lemon law buy back, or maybe it was repossessed and then auctioned by the dealership because of all the no comms and dash warning lights. People generally freak out over a bunch of lights, but imo the more lights, the more likely it will all filter down to one actual problem (ground/power/comm) that has a ton of side effects. Im curious why pulling the network spluce pack connectors and looking at each subnet wasn't on the table. Aiui, CAN devices pretty much all will "talk" without being "spoken to". The splice connectors seem like good places to look at the signals of each device; the power steering module should have been fairly easy to spot outputting a mess of a signal. Obviously you cant diagnose every possible network issue from the splice connectors, but you can access several network segments, or devices from one connector. Everyone is different, and im certainly not saying anything was done wrong here, I'm just sounding off on my thought process.

[@autodiagyt]

Just keep watching the series lol

[@Discretesignals]

Interesting when you were looking at the databus with your scope at the abs connector it was showing the bus being pulled up even though it looked like trash. If both Can lines were shorted to ground, would you even see any activity at all?

[@autodiagyt]

@@Discretesignals depends on how strong the short to ground is.

[@autotek7930]

I have a 2023 Honda pilot that I'm doing an airbag job on due to the bone accident and curtain airbag deployment. I did not do the original diag and estimate I was just handed a pile of parts to install. After everything is installed I have an internal fault for every impact sensor and safing sensor. New Module installed and ecu rewrite done. I now si states all of that side impact sensor and safing sensor needs to be replaced after deployment. Ya'll ever run into this? Tomorrow I'll be pulling the rear seats too unplug the safing sensor and see if it gets rid of all the other codes

[@autodiagyt]

When it comes to collision damage always follow the OEM recommendations. Google John Eagle Lawsuit and it will tell you 31 million reasons why you follow it exactly.

[@autotek7930]

@autodiagyt exactly. I know this, whoever did the diag did not follow it and I always use icar to do my parts list, it has all the oe info in one place. It even tells you exactly what interior trim to replace for whatever airbag deployment happened. I believe in operational consistency as I treat every car I work on like my family will be traveling cross country in it without me.

[@JessClearyAutoRepairLLC]

Excellent diag. I would also be suspicious of a possible scanner software issue (not communicating with the abs module). Did the other modules in the car reset the no com With abs codes after the code clear? Cool video, I enjoyed it!

[@autodiagyt]

Not a scantool issue.

[@JessClearyAutoRepairLLC]

@@autodiagyt cool, maybe I missed it on the video, but my last step would be to confirm communication was restored at the abs module after disconnecting the power steering module. (When you did continuity testing both can wires were shorted at the power steering module, leaving the possibility of a break in 1 can wire going to the abs module.) 2 modules at once on a 2022 (there has to be a story there😁)

[@autodiagyt]

@@JessClearyAutoRepairLLC when I was testing the wires from the gateway to the abs module the proved circuit integrity. I didn’t show where I went back and checked it again after unplugging the power steering but I did double check them. So by knowing the wires was good from the gateway to the abs it had to have data getting to it. You’ll see in part 3 why it doesn’t communicate.

Technically it's "Over Limit" and when checking circuit resistance that is basically saying the resistance is so high the meter cannot calculate it and for a meter that can calculate in the millions of ohms it's pretty much guaranteed that if you read OL on a resistance check then it's a open loop.

[@BBS_Robski]
