In this paper, a study was conducted on the analysis of communication circuit faults using oscilloscope waveform analysis. Circuit resistance was calculated based on voltage and operating current values using a simple equation, and it was confirmed that the increase in resistance of the communication circuit could be analyzed by analyzing the voltage level during transmitter operation. By combining information of the controller ID, the location of the fault was identified and it was concluded that the location of the fault can be quickly found by analyzing the oscilloscope waveform and the controller ID information. Additionally, the value of communication line contact resistance can be calculated using a simple equation, and the location of the fault can be found by analyzing the communication voltage level and ID information.
