2003 Can bus problems...possibly | |
Hi All,
I've got a 2003 td6 and 2003 v8 range rovers. A couple of weeks ago, the v8 developed an air suspension problem, which was down to the air compressor (easy fix), but to help figure this out, I stole the pump from the td6. The td6 air suspension stayed level, but after a bit of moving around the driveway it presumably decided it wasnt level and let the air out of the front. That in itself wasnt a problem so I put the air suspension compressor back in the td6 and tried to use my hawkeye to clear the faults (after trying the steering wheel lock to lock trick).
This is where the problem started. Unfortunately, the hawkeye wont now connect to the air suspension ecu, the abs or steering angle, but will the engine ecu. Thinking that the Air suspension ecu was at fault, I tried the ecu back in the v8, with the hawkeye and yes, that communicates with it just fine.
I possibly led myself up the garden path a bit, but wondered if something had gone wrong with the hawkeye, so I bought an additional vin licence for my gapIID tool (which I use on the v but that reports that it is unable to communicate with the medium or high speed can bus.
Couple of things I've done:
disconnected the steering angle sensor
pulled fuses for the abs and instrument cluster
disconnected the entire audio system
disconnected (again) the air suspension pump
disconnected the bcu and lcm
Checked the fuses/maxi fuses etc.
None of this makes either the hawkeye or Gap tool communicate with anything to do with the air suspension and there is no lights on the control panel knobs either.
Prior to all this, the car was working fine - the air suspension worked quickly and efficiently as it should.
Has anyone any ideas as to what I could try next?
Thanks in advance,
