Step-by-step troubleshooting
Before troubleshooting CAN-related DTCs (typically U-codes), take notice of any related ACTIVE P-code DTCs. One or multiple other P-code DTCs could have been the
cause for this DTC.
Step 1A - Investigate related DTCs
Action
1. Use DAVIE diagnostics to perform a quick check for current P-code DTCs.
If DAVIE does not communicate with the PCI and EAS-3 ECUs, go to step 2B.
YES NO
Refer to the troubleshooting information for these DTCs before continuing with this
procedure.
Go to step 1B.
Action
1. Check for installation of aftermarket communication or smart devices.
If no communication devices are found, ask the driver to be sure any installed aftermarket devices have been located and identified.
YES NO
Check that the device is installed using an approved PACCAR harness or meets Check for reversed CAN High and CAN Low connections on the CAN component
J1939 CAN specifications. The use of wire splicing connectors, or tying into the 9-pin associated with the ACTIVE DTC. Correct any issues found.
diagnosis connector, does not meet J1939 standards. Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.
Correct any issues found or contact your engine support representative for further
assistance in diagnosing this issue.
Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.
If this DTC is still present, go to step 2A If this DTC is still present, go to step 2A
Step 2A - Visual inspection, connections and wiring, CAN components and power
Action
1. Visually inspect the associated component connections and wiring for any of the following:
Damaged or loose connectors
Bent, broken, corroded or loose connector pins
Pushed back or expanded pins
Moisture or dirt in the connections
Damaged connector shell or seals
Damage to the wire harness or insulation
Correct parts not installed
ECU connections damaged or disconnected
CAN-related components damaged or not installed correctly
Reversed CAN High/CAN Low wiring connections
2. Inspect the battery clamp, fuse, relay connections and wiring for any of the following:
Blown engine-side or dash-side fuses
Damaged or missing relays
Damaged or loose connectors
Dirty or corroded connections
Batteries not fully charged or contacts not tight
YES NO
Correct any issues found. Replace any related components found to be damaged or
broken.
Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.
If this DTC is still present, go to step 2B Go to step 2B
Refer to the corresponding checking data for associated supply and signal voltages, resistance values, and related connector pin test points.
Refer to the OEM service manual for more information regarding pin locations and designations specific to the vehicle.
Action
1. Measure the truck battery voltage level.
NOTE: Voltages below 11.8 V will cause ‘Rate too low’ CAN error messages.
YES NO
Troubleshoot batteries, fuses, relays and wiring in the circuit path. Check for reversed
CAN High and CAN Low wiring to the unresponsive CAN component. Correct any issues
found or contact your engine support representative for further assistance in diagnosing
this issue.
Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.
Go to step 3A. If this DTC is still present, go to step 3A
Action
1. Key off the ignition and wait at least 1 min.
2. Locate the 9-pin diagnosis connector and measure resistance of the V-CAN network between terminal ‘C’ and terminal ‘D’.
The expected value is 60 Ω.
YES NO
Go to step 3B Go to step 3C
Refer to the OEM service manual for more information regarding pin locations and designations specific to the vehicle.
Action
1. Key off the ignition and wait at least 1 min.
2. Disconnect the engine harness connector from the instrument panel harness connector at the truck bulkhead.
3. Measure CAN termination resistance on the corresponding pins in each connector.
The expected value is 120 Ω.
YES NO
Refer to the list in step 2A and carefully inspect pins, connectors and wiring along the If 120 Ω is not measured on the cabin side harness, refer to service manual

corresponding harness.
Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.
If this DTC is still present, go to step 3C If this DTC is still present, go to step 3C
Action
1. Key off the ignition and wait at least 1 min.
2. Locate the E-CAN termination resistors - one in the PCI ECU (D420.C) and one in the VTG turbocharger actuator (L037) connector.
3. One at a time, disconnect the termination connector and measure E-CAN termination resistance.
The expected value is 120 Ω.
YES NO
Possible problem with the A-CAN network. Troubleshoot CAN networks and components on the E-CAN side of the connection. Correct
any issues found.
Refer to service manual PM819023/KM815057, or contact your engine support
representative for further assistance in diagnosing this issue.
Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.
Go to step 3D If this DTC is still present, go to step 3D
Action
1. Key off the ignition and wait at least 1 min.
2. Isolate the E-CAN from the A-CAN network by disconnecting the aftertreatment harness connector from the engine harness connector.
3. Locate the A-CAN termination resistors - one in the PCI ECU (D420.B) and one in the EAS-3 ECU (D374.A) connector.
4. One at a time, disconnect the termination connector and measure A-CAN termination resistance.
The expected value is 120 Ω.
YES NO
Troubleshoot CAN networks and components on the A-CAN side of the connection.
Correct any issues found.
Refer to service manual PM819023/KM815057, or contact your engine support
representative for further assistance in diagnosing this issue.
Refer to step 4A to clear the DTC.

Action
Use DAVIE diagnostics to perform a quick check for current DTCs to determine whether the actions taken have cleared all CAN-related DTCs.
1. View the DTC overview display, and confirm that all CAN-related DTCs have changed to INACTIVE or have been cleared.
YES NO
Problem resolved. No further actions. If this issue is still present, contact your engine support representative for further
assistance.
