DTC U0141: ETACS CAN timeout
 
 
caution
  • If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect DTC may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnostics Table ).
  • If DTC U0141 is set in electric parking brake ECU, always diagnose the CAN bus line. If there is any fault in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect DTC may be set. In this case, the set DTC is not highly reliable.
  • Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
 
 
OPERATION
The electric parking brake ECU communicates with the ETACS-ECU via the CAN bus lines.
 
 
DTC SET CONDITIONS
If the ECU cannot receive any signal from the ETACS-ECU via CAN for 480 ms or more, this DTC will be set.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
  • The CAN bus line is defective.
  • Power supply circuit for the ETACS-ECU fails
  • Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU
  • Malfunction of the electric parking brake ECU
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) CAN bus diagnosis.
(1)
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).
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 the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 3.
Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnostics Table ). On completion, go to Step 2.
 
STEP 2. DTC recheck after resetting CAN bus lines.
Is DTC No. U0141 set?
Go to Step 3.
This diagnosis is complete.
 
STEP 3. Check for DTCs of other systems.
Check whether an ETACS "time-out" related DTC is set in other ECUs (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN-Related Diagnosis Code Table ).
Is the DTC set?
Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 5.
 
STEP 4. Check whether the DTC is set again.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(3) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(4) Check if the DTC is set.
Is DTC No. U0141 set?
Replace the ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 54A - ETACS-ECU ).
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
 
STEP 5. Check whether the DTC is set again.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(3) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(4) Check if the DTC is set.
Is DTC No. U0141 set?
Replace the electric parking brake ECU (Refer to ).
The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (GROUP 00 - How to use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).
