BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-34 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The ignition key interlock option can be programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer
requirements, these are:
lOption 1– not fitted.
lOption 2 – normal operation.
lOption 3 – inhibit transfer box.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for operating the ignition key interlock
solenoid:
lTransfer box neutral selected.
lGearbox state.
lTransit mode.
When the transit mode is on, the ignition key interlock solenoid is off.
Transfer box interlock (where fitted)
The transfer box interlock is controlled by the IDM to prevent transfer box shifter operation unless certain
preconditions have been satisfied.
The transfer box interlock prevents the transfer box being shifted from High or Low to neutral with the ignition key
removed from the ignition switch. When the BCU senses that the ignition key is removed from the ignition switch, it
signals the IDM via the serial data bus. The IDM then provides an earth path for the coil of the transfer box relay,
energising the relay coil and closing the relay contacts to provide a voltage supply to the transfer box interlock
solenoid.
A diode is included in the supply line to the solenoid to prevent residual current causing the solenoid to stick in the
energised position.
The transfer box solenoid interlock option can be programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer
requirements, these are:
lOption 1– not fitted.
lOption 2 – normal operation.
lOption 3 – inhibit transfer box.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for employing the transfer box interlock
solenoid (transfer box solenoid enable):
lIgnition state.
lGearbox state.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the transfer box enable is on, the output will be switched
off.
Gear position switch
On automatic gearbox models, the BCU provides an output which supplies power to the automatic gearbox gear
position switch. The BCU checks for the following inputs before it supplies power:
lIgnition on.
lAuxiliary.
When the ignition is on, the feed to the gear position switch is on. When the ignition is off and auxiliary is off for more
than 30 seconds, feed to the gear position switch is off.

ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-4-5
Description
General
The anti-theft system deters the theft of the vehicle with both active and passive systems. The active systems monitor
the vehicle perimeter and, in some markets the vehicle interior, for intrusion. If the system detects intrusion, an alarm
sounds. The passive systems include a vehicle immobiliser as well as protection against intrusion through super
locking the doors. The vehicle is immobilised whenever the ignition key is removed from the ignition switch. Super
locking prevents the interior door handles from opening the doors. In addition, there are many features and functions
that enhance system operation.
It is possible to perform the various functions associated with the anti-theft system remotely. To accomplish this, the
handset generates a radio frequency when the lock button or unlock button is depressed. This signal is transmitted
to the Body Control Unit (BCU) via a receiver located in front of rear sunroof beneath the headlining. Precise alignment
of the handset to the receiver is not necessary. The approximate operating range between the handset and the
receiver is 10 metres (33 feet).
It is important to understand the configuration of the system on each particular vehicle. There are many
different combinations of features with dedicated operating modes. System configuration for each vehicle
can be determined using TestBook.
The anti-theft system is controlled centrally by the BCU, which is located below and behind the passenger glovebox.
A serial communication link communicates between the Intelligent Driver Module (IDM) located within the fusebox,
the BCU and the LED located in the instrument panel.
The state of the alarm is stored in the BCU. If the battery is disconnected while the alarm is armed, the alarm will be
triggered when the battery is reconnected.
NOTE: Disconnecting the battery while the alarm is armed triggers the alarm. Always disarm the alarm system before
disconnecting the battery.
The BCU also receives inputs from the following components:
lIgnition key in sensor.
lIgnition switch.
lFuel cut off switch.
lFuel flap release switch.
The BCU also interacts with the following components:
lStarter relay.
lVehicle horns.
lDirection indicators.
lFuel flap release actuator.
lCourtesy lamps.

ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-4-7
Driver's door key lock/unlock switches
The BCU uses the driver's door key lock/unlock switches to activate and deactivate the alarm system. Two separate
switches are incorporated into the key lock of the driver's door.
Input/Output
The input from the driver's door key lock/unlock switches to the BCU is either zero volts or an open circuit. Zero volts
indicates the key lock is in the lock or unlock position. An open circuit indicates the key lock is in the centre position.
When the BCU senses an open circuit, it pulls the input high internally.
The driver's door key lock /unlock switches have a dedicated signal input to the BCU. This allows the BCU to identify
the lock/unlock position.
TestBook provides the ability to monitor the real time state of the driver's door key lock/unlock switches.

ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN
86-4-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Door lock actuators
The door lock actuators are D type latches. The door locks allow the vehicle to be locked/unlocked and super locked
to prevent access to the vehicle via the interior door handles.
Input/Output
The driver's door lock actuator has a dedicated 12 volts power supply from the passenger compartment fuse box to
energise the locking action of the door lock actuator. The passenger and rear door lock actuators share a 12 volts
power supply from the passenger compartment fuse box to energise the locking action of the door lock actuator.
To perform the super locking action all the door lock actuators receive a 12 volts power supply from the passenger
compartment fuse box.
To perform the unlocking action for all the doors, a 12 volts power supply from the passenger compartment fuse box
is supplied to the door lock actuators.

ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-4-11
Central door locking switches
A momentary action switch mounted on the fascia allows for central door locking/unlocking from within the vehicle.
The switch is mounted adjacent to the clock.
Input/Output
The input from the central door locking/unlocking switch to the BCU is either zero volts or an open circuit. Zero volts
indicates the switch is closed. An open circuit indicates that the switch is open. When the BCU sees an open circuit,
it pulls the input high internally.
The central door locking/unlocking switch has a dedicated signal input to the BCU. This allows the BCU to identify
the lock/ unlock request.
TestBook provides the ability to monitor the real time state of the central door locking/ unlocking switch.
Handset and receiver
The handset is incorporated in the key. It uses coded radio frequency signals to lock, unlock and super lock the vehicle
remotely with a range of up to 10 metres (33 ft). The handset also mobilises the vehicle by transmitting a
remobilisation signal when the handset is within range of the passive remobilisation exciter coil.
The receiver is located in front of the rear sunroof beneath the headlining. Signals transmitted by the handset are
distributed to the BCU via the receiver.
Input/Output
The BCU supplies the receiver with a 12 volts power supply. On receiving a valid signal from the handset, the receiver
transmits a 1000 baud signal to the BCU to allow locking/unlocking of the vehicle.
TestBook provides the ability to monitor the real time state of the remote receiver.

ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN
86-4-12 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Passive remobilisation exciter coil
The passive remobilisation exciter coil consists of a coil around the steering column lock. The coil energises to create
a magnetic field when the ignition is switched to position II.
This coil activates the handset initiating the mobilisation of the vehicle.
Input/Output
The input to the passive remobilisation exciter coil from the BCU is a 12 volts 125 kHz sinewave. The passive
remobilisation exciter coil also receives an ignition controlled power supply via fuse 20 (15 amperes) located in the
engine compartment fuse box. On receiving these signals, a magnetic field is generated which activates the handset
to produce a remobilisation signal. This remobilisation signal is transmitted to the remote receiver and onto the BCU
to allow the engine to start.
