SX-CAN is our own CAN bus communication tool for JLR vehicles. It provides direct access to the vehicle's Controller Area Network (CAN) for low-level diagnostics, custom message injection, and advanced module communication.
What is SX-CAN?
SX-CAN is a specialised tool that connects directly to the vehicle's CAN bus, allowing us to send and receive messages at the protocol level. This is essential for advanced diagnostics, troubleshooting communication faults, and working with modules that require custom message sequences. Standard dealer tools operate at a higher level and cannot perform these low-level tasks.
Key Features
- Direct CAN bus access — read and write CAN messages directly
- Custom message injection — send specific messages to test modules
- Protocol-level diagnostics — identify communication faults
- Module communication — talk to modules that standard tools cannot reach
- Multi-CAN support — works with all JLR CAN networks (HS-CAN, MS-CAN, LS-CAN)
- Gateway bypass — access modules behind gateway restrictions
- Real-time monitoring — watch live CAN traffic
What Can SX-CAN Do?
- Diagnose communication faults between modules
- Test modules with custom message sequences
- Access modules behind gateway restrictions
- Monitor live CAN bus traffic for anomalies
- Inject custom messages for testing and configuration
- Work with prototype and modified modules
- Recover modules from communication lockouts
SX-CAN in Action
The screenshots below show the SX-CAN interface used by our technicians for CAN bus diagnostics, module programming, and vehicle configuration. This is the actual tool we use for low-level communication and advanced JLR programming tasks.
Supported Vehicles
All JLR vehicles with CAN bus architecture (2005-2026). SX-CAN supports HS-CAN, MS-CAN, and LS-CAN networks used across the JLR range.
Note: SX-CAN is an advanced engineering tool used by our technicians only. It requires deep knowledge of JLR CAN protocols and vehicle systems.
