Nissan Patrol Y61 CAN Flash Information

This document provides information about enabling faster CAN communication for reflashing the ECU on Nissan Patrol Y61 vehicles. It explains that the UpRev Cipher cable uses both K-Line and CAN bus communication, but CAN bus allows reflashing to occur in just 1 minute, compared to 15 minutes over K-Line alone. It describes that on Y61 Patrols, the CAN wires may not be connected from the OBD-II port to the ECU and some ECUs may be missing the required CAN transceiver chip. It provides instructions for wiring the CAN lines and checking for the transceiver chip, and lists the necessary parts if adding the chip to the ECU.

Nissan Patrol Y61 CAN Flash Information 

 
The UpRev Cipher cable uses two different channels of communication with the ECU:   
1) ISO 14230 K­Line (single wire) 
2) CAN bus (two wires: high and low) 
 
For fastest reflash times, both communication channels must be present, and a reflash only takes about 
1 minute. 
 
If CAN bus is not available, the ECU can still be flashed entirely over the K­Line with no hardware 
modification necessary, but this reflash process is slower (about 15 minutes instead of 1 minute). 
 
The purpose of this document is to provide information to anyone who would like to enable CAN 
communication with their ECU.  All modifications described below are entirely optional, and only serve to 
make the reflash process faster. 
 
There are two possible issues with CAN bus on Patrol ECUs: 
1. The wires are not connected from OBD­II port to the ECU.  From what we have seen, this is an 
issue on all Y61 Patrols. 
2. Some ECUs are missing a CAN transceiver chip which is necessary for CAN communications. 
This is only on some Y61 Patrols.  We do not know exactly which vehicles are missing this chip, 
but we suspect that it is only on vehicles without electronic throttle. 
 
Both of these issues must be addressed to enable faster ECU reflashes. 
 
 
 
   
1) Wiring the OBD Port 
 
Two pins must be added to the OBD­II port, and wired to the appropriate pins on the ECU harness.  
 
CAN High:  ECU Harness Pin 174  ­­>  OBD­II Pin 6  
CAN Low:   ECU Harness Pin 171  ­­>  OBD­II Pin 14 
 
See the figures below for pin locations

2) Checking for CAN Transceiver chip 
 
Some Patrol ECUs are missing the CAN transceiver chip and supporting components.  We have not 
been able to verify which ones have or do not have this chip for every Patrol ECU part number.   
 
To check if the chip exists on your ECU, disconnect the ECU from the vehicle and remove the 4 screws 
which hold cover plate on the ECU. 
 
Once the cover is removed, compare your ECU to the images below to determine if CAN transceiver is 
present. 
 
If your ECU is missing this chip and you wish to add it, UpRev can perform this modification for you. 
Please contact [email protected] for more information about this service.
