Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Communication Malfunction between ECUs Connected by LIN (B2785)

Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Multiplex Communication / Lin Communication System / Communication Malfunction between ECUs Connected by LIN (B2785)

DESCRIPTION

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) monitors communication between all the ECUs connected to the certification bus lines. When the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) detects errors in communication with all the ECUs connected to the certification bus lines at a set interval and 3 times in a row, DTC B2785 will be stored.

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
B2785	Errors in LIN communication between ECUs or an open or short in communication lines LIN communication from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) detects errors in communication 3 times in a row.	Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) Steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) Wire harness or connector

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

If the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is replaced, register the keys (See page ).
If the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) is replaced, register the ECU code (See page ).
When using the Techstream with the vehicle ignition switch off, connect the Techstream to the vehicle and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the Techstream and the vehicle begins. Then select the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Access. While using the Techstream, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the Techstream and the vehicle.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR OR UPPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY))

(a) Disconnect the C29 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

(b) Disconnect the S45 steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
C29-6 (LIN) - S45-5 (LIN)	Always	Below 1 Ω
C29-6 (LIN) or S45-5 (LIN) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

2.	CHECK DTC OUTPUT (STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR OR UPPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY))

(a) Reconnect the C29 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

(b) Clear the DTCs (See page (c) Recheck for DTCs. ).

Result	Proceed to
DTC B2785 is output	A
DTC B2785 is not output	B

REPLACE CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY)

REPLACE STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR OR UPPER BRACKET ASSEMBLY)

Dtc Check / Clear

DTC CHECK / CLEAR 1. CHECK DTC (a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3. (b) Turn the ignition switch to ON. (c) Turn the Techstream on. (d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Smart Acces ...

Steering Angle Sensor Zero Point Malfunction (C1290)
DESCRIPTION The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) acquires steering angle sensor zero point every time the ignition switch is turned ON and the vehicle is driven at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for approximately 5 seconds. The ECU also stores the previous zero point. If front wheel alig ...
