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.
System Outline
The CAN has two lines which operate as a pair and which communicate using operating voltage. The CAN has excellent data speed and error detecting capacity. It consists of vehicle control systems such as the network gateway ECU, distance control ECU assembly, DLC3, ECM, transmission control ECU assembly, skid control ECU assembly, power steering ECU assembly, steering sensor, center airbag sensor assembly, seat belt control ECU and yaw rate sensor. The network gateway ECU has communication circuits which correspond to different types of communication data. Different types of communication data can then be shared among communication parts after it goes through network gateway ECU.
