At a closer look, I doubt that the above LEC handling is correct.
According to the manual: "when the LEC shows the value “7,” this value
was written to the LEC by the CPU; thus, no CAN bus event was detected"
Therefore the LEC bits should be properly *initialized* and *reset* to
0x7, which I do not find in the code.
