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.
Inspection Procedure
- Turn the engine switch off before measuring the resistances of CAN bus main wires and CAN bus branch wires.
- After the engine switch is turned off, check that the key reminder warning system and light reminder warning system are not in operation.
- Before measuring the resistance, leave the vehicle as is for at least 1 minute and do not operate the engine switch, any other switches, or the doors. If any doors need to be opened in order to check connectors, open the doors and leave them open.
HINT:
Operating the engine switch, any switches, or any doors triggers related ECU and sensor communication on the CAN. This communication will cause the resistance value to change.
- CHECK DTC
- Check for DTCs.
HINT:
If CAN MS bus communication error DTC B2326 is output, troubleshoot for B2326 and check for malfunctions in the CAN MS main bus circuit (See DTC B2326 CAN MS Bus Line Communication Malfunction ).

A: Go to Next Step
- Check for DTCs.
- CHECK CAN MS BUS WIRE (MULTIPLEX TILT AND TELESCOPIC ECU)
- Turn the engine switch off.
- Disconnect connector E79 from the multiplex tilt and telescopic ECU.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
