Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
DTC B2810-00: CAN Time-Out PGS/AVM/FRMS/RVM: General Description
The Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus is used where data needs to be exchanged between modules. The CAN Bus is used to minimize the delay between the occurrence of a change in a sensor value, and the reception of this information by the control device using the information to adjust the vehicle system performance. The CAN network consists of two twisted wires; one signal circuit is identified as CAN-High and the other signal circuit is identified as CAN-Low. At each end of the data bus there is a 120 Ξ© termination resistor between the CAN-High and CAN-Low circuits. When the CAN-High signal circuit is driven higher, to about 3.5V, and the CAN-Low circuit is driven lower, to about 1.5V, the differential voltage becomes approximately 2.0V (+/- 0.5).
