Hi Sanjay,
Which CAN transceiver are you using? I've attached an explanation of how our TCAN10xx-series devices would respond to different wiring faults. I hope it is helpful to you.

Hi Max,
Thanks for your response.
I am using CANpiggy 251mag - transceiver used is 82C251.
Sanjay,
That transceiver is not made by TI. I can't comment definitively on its behavior. If you are interested in evaluating a TI device, I would recommend either TCAN1042-Q1 or TCAN1044-Q1. Both are pinout-compatible and feature improvements like wider CANH/CANL voltage ratings and higher ESD immunity.

Hi Max,
Can you please provide some information in which CAN transceiver I can achieve BUS OFF failure when CAN H is Shorted to BAT+ and CAN L shorted to GND.
Hello Sanjay,
As long as this condition is within the supported voltage ranges of the device, any transceiver should report this condition as a static dominant state on the bus (provided the battery voltage is at least 900 mV). It would be up to the controller used to interpret this condition as a fault and transition to the bus off state.

Max
