AIR CONDITIONING
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 82-15
Distribution switch. Enabled only while the system is on. Provides manual control of air distribution:
lEach press changes the air distribution, in sequence, through footwells only, footwells and windscreen/side
windows demist, windscreen/side windows demist only, face level only, face level and footwells.
lIf the switch is kept depressed, after 1 second subsequent distribution changes occur every 0.4 seconds until
distribution reaches face level and footwells. Releasing and then pressing the switch again changes distribution
back to footwells only.
External air temperature (EXT) switch. Enabled while the system is on or off. Switches the external temperature output
on and off:
lIf the system is already on, the temperature output overrides the system outputs for approximately 7 seconds,
then the display reverts to system outputs.
lIf the system is switched on while the external temperature output is on, the system outputs override the external
temperature output.
Fresh/Recirculated air switch. Enabled only while the system is on. Provides manual control of inlet air selection.
Defrost mode switch. Starts the system in, or switches the system to and from, defrost mode.
Automatic mode (AUTO) switch. Starts the system in, or switches the system to and from, the automatic mode.
Economy mode (ECON) switch. Enabled only while the system is on. Provides manual on/off control of the refrigerant
system compressor, to reduce fuel consumption when there is no requirement for cool or dehumidified air, e.g. when
the ambient temperature is lower than the LH and RH temperature settings.
Temperature settings: The LH and RH temperature settings are reference inputs used by the control system and give
an approximation of the temperatures that will be established in the cabin. They are not necessarily actual distribution
outlet temperatures, or the temperatures at specific points in the cabin.
Audible warning: A 'beep' is emitted from the ATC ECU each time it receives a control switch input. This audible
warning can be switched off and on by pressing and holding the AUTO switch, then pressing and holding the A/C on/
off switch until the audible warning sounds (approximately 3 seconds). While switched off, the audible warning still
sounds when:
lSwitching between
°F and °C on the display.
lSwitching the audible warning from off to on.
lSwitching the timed feet function on and off.
lSwitching the timed recirculated inlet air on and off.
lSwitching the latched recirculated inlet air on and off.
lWhen there is a fault warning.
lRunning the self diagnostic routine.

82-18DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Operation
General
While the system is on, the ATC ECU operates the refrigerant system and the inlet air, blower speed, air temperature
and air distribution functions to produce the conditions requested on the control panel. When the system is first
switched on, the ATC ECU resumes the control outputs in use when the system was last switched off. If conditions
have changed, or a different mode is selected to switch the system on, the control outputs are then changed to
produce the required new settings.
The system operates in automatic, economy and defrost modes, with manual overrides of the inlet air source, blower
speed and air distribution. The air temperature is automatically controlled in all operating modes.
In the automatic mode, the ATC ECU operates the system to warm-up or cool down the cabin to establish and
maintain the temperature selections on the control panel, while directing the air to those outlets most comfortable for
the occupant(s). If a difference between the LH and RH temperature selections causes a conflict of the required inlet
air source, blower speed or air distribution settings, priority is given to achieving the temperature requested on the
driver's side of the control panel.
The ATC ECU enters the economy mode when the refrigerant compressor is selected off while the system is in the
automatic mode, which reduces the load on the engine. Economy mode operation is similar to the automatic mode,
but without the ability to cool the cabin if the ambient temperature is higher than the temperature selections made on
the control panel, or to dehumidify the air in the cabin.
In the defrost mode, the ATC ECU sets the inlet air source to fresh air, the blower to maximum speed, the air
distribution to windscreen and side windows, and outputs signals to the BCU to operate the rear window heater and
(where fitted) the windscreen heater. The BCU starts or, if the heaters are already on, resets the heater timers and
energises the rear window and windscreen heaters for a complete on cycle.
Air temperature control
To determine the amount of heat or cooling required by the cabin, the ATC ECU uses the sensor inputs and the
temperatures selected on the control panel to calculate target air outlet temperatures for the driver's and the front
passenger's side of the heater assembly. The ATC ECU then signals the servo motors controlling the respective blend
flaps in the heater assembly to move to the flaps to the appropriate position. The target temperatures are constantly
updated and, in the automatic mode, also used in further calculations to determine the inlet air source, the blower
speed and the air distribution.
Inlet air control
The inlet air source is automatically controlled while the system is off or on. While the system is on, the inlet air source
can also be manually controlled to give timed recirculated air or latched recirculated air.
While the system is off, the ATC ECU uses vehicle speed to determine the inlet air source. With the vehicle at rest,
the inlet air source is set to recirculated air. When vehicle speed reaches 17.5 mph (28 km/h), the inlet air source
changes to fresh air. The inlet air source then remains at fresh air until the vehicle speed decreases to 5 mph (8 km/
h), when it returns to recirculated air.
While the system is on, the ATC ECU uses the LH and RH temperature selections, vehicle speed, ambient air
temperature and coolant temperature to determine the inlet air source. In the automatic mode:
lIf one temperature selection is set to LO and one is set to a specific temperature or HI, the inlet air is set to
recirculated air.
lIf one temperature selection is set to HI and one is set to a specific temperature or HI, the inlet air is set to fresh
air.
lWhen specific LH and RH temperature selections are set, the inlet air source remains at fresh air except when
the air distribution function is set to face level only or face level and footwell outlets. If the air distribution function
is set to face level only or face level and footwell outlets, at 56 mph (90 km/h) the inlet air source changes to
recirculated air (to exclude ram effect, which becomes excessive at speed). When the vehicle speed decreases
to 37.5 mph (60 km/h), the inlet air source returns to fresh air.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-20 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
When the alarm system is set the BCU checks the status of all the inputs from the door and bonnet switches to ensure
the integrity of the vehicle before setting the alarm system into operational mode. In some markets, when the alarm
is set the BCU sends a signal to the IDM which will cause the direction indicators to flash three times for a duration of
3 seconds.
If the sensors are triggered the BCU will activate an alarm sounder to provide an audible warning of a theft attempt.
The activation period of the alarm sounder is 25 to 30 seconds. The duty cycle of the alarm sounder is 50:50
± 10%.
In some markets, when the alarm is triggered the BCU also activates the direction indicators, in phase with the audible
warning, to provide an optical warning of a theft attempt. The activation period of the optical alarm is 25 to 30 seconds.
The duty cycle of the optical warning is 50:50
± 10%.
The alarm system relies upon the vehicle battery for power. However, the BCU remembers the status of the security
system if it loses battery supply. If the security system was in a set condition when battery supply was lost the BCU
will trigger the alarm and initiate a visual warning by flashing the hazard lamps when the battery voltage is restored.
On vehicles with a BBUS fitted, the BBUS will sound if the battery is disconnected while the alarm system is set.
Door switches
The BCU uses the door latch switches to indicate if a door is open or closed. The BCU provides power to all door latch
switches; the switches are in the 'normally open' condition when the doors are shut. When a door is opened, the door
switch contacts are closed and the circuit is earthed, signalling a change in state to the BCU. All doors except the
driver's doors are connected in parallel, so the BCU will recognise a passenger door has been opened but will not be
able to distinguish which one. The driver's door has a dedicated signal line which enables the BCU to detect if the
driver's door has been opened or closed.
Door lock actuators
The CDL system has the facility to enable superlocking. All door lock actuators are controlled by the BCU via the IDM.
The driver's door is controlled separately from all other doors, enabling functions like single point entry and key
access.
Driver's door key lock and unlock switches
The BCU uses the driver's door key lock and unlock switches to activate and deactivate the security system. The
driver's door lock is also used for entering the EKA code.
Two separate switches are incorporated into the key lock assembly of the driver's door. The switches are normally
open and the BCU provides a separate power supply to each. The BCU is signalled when a circuit is earthed enabling
it to determine the direction in which the lock has been turned.
Bonnet switch
The bonnet switch is powered from the BCU and is used as a logical input for operation of the security system. The
switch is normally open with the bonnet closed, when the bonnet is opened the switch contacts close to complete a
circuit to earth and signal the change in state to the BCU.
Key-in sensor
When the ignition key is inserted into the lock barrel the key-in sensor contacts close and supply a signal to the BCU.
The BCU monitors the ignition switch for a change in state and triggers the alarm if it receives an ignition signal before
it receives an alarm disarm signal.
Another feed to the ignition switch is provided by the BCU to provide switch illumination.
A key-in warning can be enabled or disabled. When the key-in warning is enabled, an audible warning is generated
if the ignition key is in and the driver's door is opened.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-25
Wipers and washers
Front and rear wash/ wipe operations are controlled by the BCU via the IDM.
Front wipers and washers
When front intermittent wipe is selected using the wiper switch on the column stalk, the BCU signals the IDM to
operate the wiper motor. The IDM then supplies a voltage to the normal speed winding of the wiper motor for a period
of no longer than 500 ms. The timed feed ensures the wiper motor operates, but does not complete more than a single
wipe of the screen. The BCU checks the position of the delay switch to determine the delay period which should be
utilised for the intermittent wipe operation. The delay period of the front intermittent wipe is maintained until the wiper
switch is moved to the off, normal or fast speed position, or the delay period is changed.
When front intermittent wipe is selected, a delay period of 500 ms will be incurred before the wipers operate. This
delay prevents the occurrence of a wipe action when the wiper switch is changed to the off position from the normal
or fast modes of operation.
To enable the front intermittent wipe facility, the BCU checks the state of the following inputs:
lIgnition state.
lFront intermittent wiper switch.
lFront intermittent wiper rate.
If the ignition switch is in the off or crank position, the front wipers are not active and the front wiper enable output is
switched off.
If the option to initiate a wipe action in addition to a front screen wash action has been configured in the BCU, the
wipers will operate 400 ms after the washer pump becomes active. If the washer switch is released within 400 ms,
the wipers will not be activated. If a washer switch is pressed for longer than 400 ms, the BCU will operate the wipers
after an initial delay of 400 ms, and will continue to operate for as long as the washer switch is depressed plus an
additional 4 seconds.
The front wash/ wipe programme can be configured to operate in one of two ways:
lOption 1 – normal.
lOption 2 – no wipe.
The BCU checks for the following inputs:
lIgnition state.
lFront washer pump switch.
The BCU can provide the following wash / wipe outputs depending on the logic states prevailing:
lFront wiper enable.
lFront wash/ wipe in progress flag.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the front wash/ wipe programme is in operation, the front
wiper enable output is switched off.
Rear wipers and washers
The rear wiper is initially operated for a period of 4 seconds when the rear wiper switch is pressed, to complete two
full cycles. After this, the rear wiper will operate every other time the front wiper completes a wipe operation. During
the wipe operation, the front and rear wipers are synchronised, and changes to the delay period during intermittent
wipe will change the delay period for both front and rear wipers.
Operation of the rear washer switch causes the washer motor to operate for as long as the switch is operated. The
wiper also operates while the switch is depressed and for a further 4 seconds after the switch is released.
The BCU checks for the following inputs to determine when to provide the rear wiper enable signal:
lIgnition state.
lRear wiper switch.
lFront intermittent wiper rate.
lFront intermittent wiper switch.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-26 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
If the ignition switch is in the off or crank position, the rear wipers are not active and the rear wiper enable output is
switched off.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the rear intermittent wipe programme is in operation, the
rear wiper enable output is switched off.
Reverse gear wipe
The BCU changes the operation of the rear wiper when the front wiper is active and reverse gear is selected. The rear
wiper operation rate used when the preconditions have been satisfied depend on the prevailing front wiper operating
mode and the position of the rear wiper switch. If the rear wiper is on or the front wiper is operating at an intermittent
rate when reverse gear is selected, the BCU will operate the rear wiper continuously for 4 seconds via the IDM. After
the initial period, the rear wiper will operate at the same rate as the front wiper.
The BCU checks for the following inputs to determine when to provide the rear wiper enable signal if the vehicle is in
reverse gear:
lIgnition state.
lRear wiper switch.
lFront intermittent wiper rate.
lReverse gear selected.
lFront intermittent wiper switch.
lFront wiper switch state.
lFront wash/ wipe in progress flag.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the reversing wipe is in operation, the rear wiper enable
output is switched off.
Headlamp wash
The headlamp wash will only operate when the headlamps are on, and then only every third time the front windscreen
wash button is pressed. When the BCU operates the headlamp washers, it activates the washer pump relay for a
period of 500 ms. The BCU supplies an earth path for the coil of the power wash relay located in the engine
compartment fuse box when the washer function is selected.
The BCU checks for the following inputs to determine when to provide power to the headlamp power wash relay:
lIgnition state.
lFront washer pump switch.
lDipped beam.
lMain beam state.
If the ignition switch is in the off position, the headlamp power wash relay is also held off. if the ignition state is crank,
the headlamp power wash relay is switched off and the headlamp power wash counter is reset to 0.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the headlamp power wash relay in on , the relay remains
on until the 500 ms timer has completed, then the relay is switched off.
Electric seats
The BCU can be programmed to operate the electric seats according to one of three options:
lOption 1 – no electric seats.
lOption 2 – normal.
lOption 3 – operates with ignition only.
To determine when to provide an output to the passenger and drivers seat enable relay, the BCU checks the condition
of the following inputs:
lIgnition state.
lTransit mode.
lDriver's door open.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-29
Courtesy headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps for 30 seconds when the lock button on the remote transmitter is held down for
longer than 1 second. The headlamps will extinguish if the BCU receives either a lock or an unlock signal from the
remote transmitter.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the correct qualifying conditions for requesting
courtesy headlamps:
lIgnition state.
lRemote locking request.
lRemote unlocking request.
lLazy locking request.
If the ignition is off and a lazy locking request is received, the courtesy headlamps are switched on and an internal
timer is turned on in the BCU which operates for 30 seconds. If the 30 second timer expires or a request for remote
locking or remote unlocking is received, the courtesy headlamps will be turned off.
When main beam is selected, the IDM also provides a signal to the instrument pack to switch on the main beam
warning lamp. An additional signal 'main beam indicator disable' is used to prevent the daylight running lamps
illuminating the main beam indicator when the main beam is in the daylight running lamp state and the main beam
indicator disable signal is on.
Lights on alarm
The lights on alarm in the instrument pack operates when the driver's door is open and the side lamps or headlamps
are on. The system uses inputs from the driver's door switch and the lighting switch to determine the logical conditions
that need to occur for switching on the alarm. The BCU carries out the logic operation and communicates with the
instrument pack using the serial data bus; the instrument pack will be requested to sound the alarm if the logic inputs
indicate that the driver's door is open with the lights still on.
Supply voltage is provided through the lighting switch to the IDM which acts as the signal line to indicate that the lights
are on for the logic circuits in the IDM and BCU. When the driver's door is opened, a second feed is supplied to the
BCU through the driver's door switch to indicate the condition. In this logic condition (lights on and driver's door open)
the BCU signals the instrument pack to operate the audible warning. If the lights are switched off or the driver's door
is closed the logic condition will be changed and the audible warning will be switched off.
Daylight running lamps
The BCU operates the daylight running lamps (where fitted) via the IDM. The daylight running lamps option can be
programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer requirements, these are:
lOption 1– no daylight running lamps.
lOption 2 – on with main beam off.
lOption 3 – on with main and dipped beam off and gearbox not in Park.
The BCU will ensure the logical conditions are satisfied for the lamps to operate under the set conditions. The BCU
checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for providing an output to the daylight running
lamp relay:
lMain beam state.
lEngine running (link from instrument pack).
lDipped beam.
lGearbox state.
A voltage supply is fed to the coil of the daylight running lamp relay and the IDM. When the preconditions are satisfied
for daylight running lamp operation, the BCU sends a signal for the IDM to complete the circuit to earth to switch on
the daylight running lamps. The logical inputs are checked to ensure that the engine is running before switching the
relay to turn on the daylight running lamps. The engine running signal has to be present for at least 2 seconds before
the daylight running lamp relay can be switched on.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-31
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for providing an output to the rear fog
lamp relay:
lIgnition state.
lMain beam state.
lDipped beam.
lFront fogs relay.
lRear fogs selected (press button, not latched).
If the ignition state is crank the state of the rear fog relay is memorised and the relay is switched off. Pressing the front
fog switch during cranking will not be recognised. When the ignition state returns to Ignition after cranking, the
memorised rear fog relay state is restored. If the ignition is turned off, the rear fog relay is turned off.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the rear fog relay is on, the rear fog relay will remain on
until the ignition is turned off or the dipped/ main beam is turned off.
Interior courtesy lamps
To determine when to provide an interior courtesy lamps enable output, the BCU checks the following input
conditions:
lIgnition state.
lTransit mode.
lDriver's door open.
lPassenger or rear door open.
The courtesy lamps operate at full brightness when they are first switched on. The BCU then gradually dims the lamps
(fade-out) before completely switching them off. Fade-out occurs over a period of two seconds following the logical
control signal to turn off the lights. When a door is opened, the BCU provides earth paths from the interior lamps, the
load space lamp and the ignition switch illumination. The following table lists the courtesy lamps operation and
duration for holding the lamps on that occurs after the BCU has detected a condition that signals the courtesy lamps
should be switched on:

ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN
86-4-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Volumetric sensors
The BCU uses volumetric sensors to detect any change in air movement within the vehicle. There are two sensors
located in the headlining of the vehicle.
Input/Output
The sensors require a regulated power supply of 12 volts, via the BCU. When a change in air movement is detected
the sensors generate a 5 Hz pulse train to the BCU.
Each of the sensors have a dedicated signal input to the BCU. Power to the sensors is supplied by the BCU.
TestBook provides the ability to monitor the real time state of the sensors.
