F-CAN System Link

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Acura TSX, 2007 Acura TSX, and 2006 Acura TSX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

F-CAN (Fast Controller Area Network) passes information between processors on the network. The F-CAN network uses a communication protocol that transmits data at 500 Kbps.

If the diagnostic screen below reads NG with the ignition switch ON (II), then you can use the HDS to retrieve the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). The data displayed in the ID boxes is irrelevant.
For more details on troubleshooting the F-CAN, refer to the multiplex system.
