DTC U0293: PHEV-ECU Time-out

 
 
caution
  • If the ECM sets DTC U0293, make sure to diagnose the CAN bus line.
  • Before replacing the ECU, make sure that the communication circuit is operating normally.
 
 
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
There is no data from PHEV-ECU for the specified time. (PHEV-ECU also detect communication error with ECM.)
 
 
MONITOR EXECUTION
  • Continuous
 
 
MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other monitor and Sensor)
Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC set in memory for the item monitored below)
  • Not applicable
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)
  • Not applicable

 
 
DTC SET CONDITIONS
Logic Flow Chart
Check Condition
  • Power supply mode of electric motor switch is ON.
Judgment Criterion
  • Unable to receive PHEV-ECU signals through the CAN bus line.
 
 
COMMENT
Current Trouble
  • Some of the possible causes are a harness or connector damage between the ECM and the PHEV-ECU on the CAN bus line, a failure in the PHEV-ECU power supply system, a failure in the PHEV-ECU, or a failure in the ECM.
Past Trouble
  • Proceed to troubleshoot based on a harness or connector damage on the CAN bus line between the ECM and PHEV-ECU, and a failure in the ASC power supply system. Refer to "How to cope with past trouble" (Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Treat Past Trouble ).
noteIf a malfunction occurred in the past, a failure cannot be discovered through the scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) CAN bus diagnosis even if there might be a problem with the CAN bus. In this case, refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions . Furthermore, it is possible to narrow down the areas of the possible failures from the DTCs that are set in the ECUs, which are communicating on the CAN bus [Refer to GROUP 54C, Explanation about the Scan Tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) CAN Bus Diagnostics ].
 
 
FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION
  • Cut the supply of fuel.
 
 
OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
  • Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 1 .
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely causes for this code to be set are:)
  • CAN line harness damage or connector damage.
  • PHEV-ECU failed.
  • ECM failed.

 
 
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), diagnose CAN bus line.
cautionTo prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
(1) Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to HOW TO CONNECT THE SCAN TOOL (M.U.T.-IIISE) .
(2) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(3) Diagnose CAN bus line.
(4) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is the CAN bus line normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the CAN bus line. Refer to GROUP 54C, Diagnosis - Can Bus Diagnostics Table . Then go to Step 6.
 
STEP 2. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(2) Read the PHEV-DTC.
(3) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is the PHEV-DTC set?
Refer to GROUP 54Da, Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart .
Go to Step 3.
 
STEP 3. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(2) Check that the other ECU performing CAN communication with PHEV-ECU sets DTC No. U0293. Refer to GROUP 54C, CAN Communication-related DTC (U-code) Table .
(3) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is DTC U0293 set?
Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 5.
 
STEP 4. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC again.
(3) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is DTC U0293 set?
Replace the PHEV-ECU. Then go to Step 6.
It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent of CAN bus line between ECM and PHEV-ECU. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions .
 
STEP 5. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC again.
(3) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is DTC U0293 set?
Replace the ECM (Refer to Removal and Installation ). Then go to Step 6.
It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent of CAN bus line between ECM and PHEV-ECU. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions .
 
STEP 6. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), read the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC again.
(3) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is DTC U0293 set?
Retry the troubleshooting.
The inspection is complete.
