DRIVING AIDS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-8-7
Inputs and Outputs
Two connectors provide the interface between the PDC ECU and the external PDC components.
The ECU receives inputs from the following:
lReverse lamp circuit – for system activation when reverse gear is selected
lPDC switch – for activation and de-activation of the system
lIgnition switch – power supply for system operation.
The ECU outputs to the following:
lSensors – power and ground connections
lSensor – digital signal transmit and receive signals
lSounder – signal for sounder operation
lPDC Switch – power supply for switch LED operation.
Diagnostics
The PDC ECU has no diagnostic connection to enable faults to be retrieved using TestBook/T4. An on-board
diagnostic routine monitors the system and alerts the driver to a system fault by emitting a tone from the sounder.
If a PDC system fault has occurred, the sounder will emit a continuous tone for 3 seconds and the PDC switch LED
will flash continuously when reverse gear is selected.

DRIVING AIDS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-8-9
PDC Switch
The PDC switch is located in the instrument pack cowl, below the fuel flap release switch. The switch has a
momentary, non-latching action, which switches a positive output from the PDC ECU to ground when pressed. This
signal is used by the ECU to switch the PDC between the activated and de-activated conditions. The switch is
connected to the PDC ECU via a harness connector which is integrated into the vehicle body harness.
The switch contains an LED. The LED illuminates for approximately 3 seconds when the ignition is switched to
position II for a bulb check. The bulb check is controlled by logic within the PDC ECU. When the system is active (i.e.
obstacle detected), the LED illuminates to show the active condition.
When the PDC is switched from the off condition to the active condition, the LED is illuminated briefly, along with a
chime from the sounder, to signal that the system has been activated.
If a fault exists in the PDC system, the ECU flashes the LED continuously, when the switch is pressed to activate the
system.

DRIVING AIDS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-8-11
Operation
PDC System Operation
When the ignition switch is in position II and reverse gear is selected, the PDC sensors are automatically activated.
The PDC ECU only activates the system if reverse is selected for more than 1 second. This avoids nuisance audible
warnings when the gear selector lever is being moved between Drive and Park on vehicles with automatic
transmission.
When the system is activated, the PDC ECU illuminates the indicator LED in the PDC switch, switches on the
ultrasonic sensors and generates a single chime on the PDC sounder to indicate the system is active. If an object is
range of the sensors when the system is activated, a series of audible warnings are emitted by the PDC sounder
immediately.
If PDC operation is not required, it can be suspended temporarily by pressing the PDC switch. When reverse is
deselected and subsequently reselected, PDC will automatically become active again.
PDC can also be manually selected when not in reverse gear by pressing the PDC switch. A second press of the
switch is required to turn off the PDC or the PDC will be deactivated if reverse is selected and then deselected.
Sensor Operation
The PDC ECU processes the distance readings from the ultrasonic sensors to determine if there are any objects
within the detection areas. If there are no objects in the detection areas, there are no further audible warnings. If an
object is detected, repeated audible warnings are produced on the PDC sounder.
The maximum detection range is 1800 mm (70 in). When an object is detected, the time delay between the audible
warning tones decreases as the distance between the detected object and the vehicle decreases until, at
approximately 450 mm (17 in), the audible warning tone is continuous.
After the initial detection of an object, if there is no decrease in the distance between an object and the central sensors,
the time delay between the audible warnings remains constant. If an object is detected by one of the corner sensors
only, the audible warnings stop after about 5 seconds if there is no change in the distance between the object and the
corner sensor.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
87-4 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Inputs and Outputs
In addition to the vehicle sensor and the antenna inputs, the navigation computer also receives the following:
lA permanent battery feed from the passenger compartment fusebox, to power the navigation function.
lAn ignition switched battery feed from the passenger compartment fusebox, to power the navigation, radio and
CD functions when the ignition switch is in positions I and II.
lAn illumination power feed for switch illumination and LCD backlighting when the exterior lights are on.
Navigation computer outputs consist of those for the ICE system speakers and to the auxiliary CD autochanger, where
fitted.
Security Code
The navigation computer is programmed with a five digit security code selected from numbers 1 to 7. If the battery or
the navigation computer are disconnected, the code is requested on the LCD the first time the navigation computer
is switched on after reconnection; this also occurs if a different removable panel is fitted.
The code is entered using the appropriate multifunction buttons. The navigation computer automatically starts to
operate when the fifth digit of the correct code is entered. If an incorrect code is entered, CODE is displayed on the
LCD to prompt another entry attempt. If an incorrect code is entered three times in succession, WAIT is displayed on
the LCD and the unit is disabled for approximately 60 minutes. If the navigation computer is switched off, the
remaining disabled time will resume when the power is restored.
Automatic Volume Control (AVC)
The AVC feature automatically increases and decreases the audio volume with increases and decreases of vehicle
road speed. The AVC feature, also known as the GAL setting, uses the vehicle speed signal from the ABS ECU and
can be turned off or adjusted to start at a different vehicle speed. The GAL setting is accessed through the User Menu
and can be set to between 0 and +15, where 0 is off and +1 to +15 progressively increase the vehicle speed at which
AVC starts to operate.
