Ford Ecosport: Module Communications Network / Description and Operation - Communications Network - Overview
Overview
Multiplexing
is a method of sending 2 or more signals simultaneously over a single
circuit. Multiplexing allows 2 or more electronic modules (nodes) to
communicate over a twisted wire pair [data (+) and data (-)] network.
The information or messages that can be communicated on these wires
consists of commands, status or data. Multiplexing reduces the weight of
the vehicle by reducing the number of redundant components and
electrical wiring.
The vehicle has 2 module communication networks connected to the DLC
, located under the instrument panel. The communication networks are:
The vehicle has 5 communication networks that do not communicate
directly with the diagnostic scan tool. The GWM translates the messages
on these 5 networks and transfers the signals to the DIAG 1 and DIAG 2
circuits at the DLC . Messages communicated on the HS-CAN1 are
communicated to the DIAG 1 connection, all other networks are translated
to the DIAG 2 connection at the remote DLC . The communication networks
are:
-
HS-CAN1
-
HS-CAN2
-
HS-CAN3
-
HS-CAN4
-
MS-CAN

Recovery
NOTICE:
Use an A/C refrigerant analyzer before recovering any of the vehicle's
A/C refrigerant. Failure to do so puts the shop's bulk refrigerant at
risk of contamination. If the vehicle's A/C refrigerant is contaminated,
refer the customer to the se..
