The CAN bus line consists of two lines, CAN_L and CAN_H (CAN Low and CAN High, respectively), as well as two terminal resistors (A twisted-pair cable, highly resistant to noise, is used for the communications line).
The CAN bus line connecting the two terminal resistors is the main bus line, and the CAN bus line connecting each ECU is the sub-bus line.
The terminal resistors are installed in the engine-ECU <M/T> or the engine-A-M/T-ECU <Automated manual transmission> module and connection meter to stabilize communication signals (The terminal resistance is set at approximately 120 Ω).
The following components are connected to the CAN bus line.
Engine-ECU <M/T>
Engine-A-M/T-ECU* <Automated manual transmission>
ABS-ECU <Vehicles without TCL/ASC system>
TCL/ASC-ECU <Vehicles with TCL/ASC system>
Steering wheel sensor <Vehicles with TCL/ASC system>
G and yaw rate sensor <Vehicles with TCL/ASC system>
Electric power steering-ECU
SRS-ECU
A/C-ECU <Vehicles with semi automatic A/C>
ETACS-ECU
