-Why is my CAN not working ? Here are some Problem Solving Questions 
-This page should help you to find out why your network is not working by providing questions. Answering these questions should help to find out what is possibly going wrong. 
  
-  * Are there two 120 Ohm resistors across the bus at each end to terminate the network drivers? See [[CAN Cabling|CAN Cabling]] and DeviceNetCable 
- 
-  * Is there at least one other node on the bus?  
- 
-  * Are both CAN transceivers (when there are only 2 nodes) fault tolerant?  
- 
-  * Are all the nodes CAN-A or are there CAN-B compliant devices? 
- 
-  * Are the grounds between nodes connected together? 
- 
-  * Are you using a Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) dongle to listen in on the messages. In other words: "can you trust at least one member at the bus?". 
- 
-  * Are you using an CAN speed according your network cable length ? See [[CAN Cabling|CAN Cabling]]
