Checking A Short-circuit In CAN Cables
Connect an ohmmeter between the relevant CAN cable (CAN-L and CAN-H) and the power supply, and between the CAN cable and ground. Twist the connectors and turn the cable harness to different positions at each reading to determine any intermittent short-circuits.
Take The Following Readings:
- The resistance between CAN-L and ground
- The resistance between CAN-L and voltage
- The resistance between CAN-H and ground
- The resistance between CAN-H and voltage.
The resistance must be infinite or very high in all cases (greater than 1 M ohm).
HINT: The reading can be taken from the same connector if the CAN cables, power supply and ground are exposed. If possible, take readings on the rear of the connector to prevent damage to the terminals in the connector. If this is not possible, use the adapter wiring or loose terminal pins to obtain a good contact.
Was a fault detected?
YES: Refer to 4. Identifying Fault Causes In the CAN Network. 4 - Identifying Fault Causes In the CAN Network
NO: Refer to 5. Checking the Traffic Load on the CAN Cables. 5 - Checking the Traffic Load on the CAN Cables

- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
