The HECU send requirement data, such as Torque reduction, the number of fuel cut cylinders, and TCS control requests, to the Engine ECU & TCU through CAN bus line.
The Engine ECU performs fuel cut functions according to requests from the HECU and retards ignition timing by torque reduction requests.
The TCU maintains current gear positions during TCS control time, in order not to increase power which causes a Kickdown shift.
The HECU checks the CAN control module for normal TCS control, and sets this code if CAN control module malfunction is detected.
Item | Detecting Condition | Possible cause |
DTC Strategy | ● CAN control module monitoring | ● Faulty HECU |
Monitoring Period | ● Immediate during start up | |
Enable Conditions | ● Faults are detected immediately if the initialization software can’t have write access to the configuration registers of the CAN-controller module. | |
Fail Safe | ● Inhibit the ESP control and allow the ABS/EBD control. Meanwhile, stop checking the ESP switch failure under the ESP control. |
