DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-39
Anti-theft status warning lamp
The anti-theft status warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a red LED and a clear legend.
The BCU illuminates the LED when the vehicle anti-theft system is active.
This provides a warning to potential thieves that the vehicle is protected by a security system.
When the ignition is switched on, the ECM illuminates the LED to provide a self-check, providing there is no fault it
will remain illuminated until the engine is started or the ignition is switched off.
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 13. The BCU controls the earth path to
illuminate the warning lamp.
The voltage on the earth path from the BCU to the instrument pack will be less than 1 volt when the anti-theft status
is enabled.

Diagnostic connector
RHD illustrated
The diagnostic connector allows TestBook to communicate with the vehicle electrical system.
The modules that TestBook can interface with via the diagnostic connector are:
lSLABS ECU.
lBCU.
lECM (V8 and Td5).
lIDM.
lACE ECU.
lEAT ECU.
lSRS DCU.
TestBook communicates with the ECM, ECU's and the instrument pack for diagnostic purposes and for configuration
for a specific options or market. If communications on the diagnostic connector fail for greater than three seconds after
the ignition is in position II the gear selected display in the LCD flashes. This applies to both manual and automatic
vehicles in all markets.
The instrument pack options configured by TestBook are:
lAutomatic or manual gearbox fitted.
lDiesel or V8 engine fitted.
lACE fitted.
lSLS fitted.
lGulf, Japan or ROW markets.
lService engine reset.
lOdometer reset.
lHDC fitted.
lTraction control fitted.
The serial communications link is a bi-directional communications network providing both input and output on the
same pin.

Interior rear view mirror with compass

1Cover
2Electrical connector
3Mounting bracket
4Light sensor
5Compass LED display
6Compass calibration switch
7Compass printed circuit board
Certain vehicles have an interior rear view mirror that features an automatic photochromatic dimming function and an
electronic compass with LED display.
The compass mirror is a self-contained unit and does not interface with any other vehicle system or electronic control
unit. The mirror is fixed to a metal bracket attached to the windscreen.
A three pin connector provides the electrical connection to the mirror's internal circuit board. Pin-1 of the connector
provides the 12V power supply to the board via the auxiliary relay located in the engine compartment fusebox. When
the ignition switch is turned to the 'II' position, a 12V supply is provided to energise the coil of the auxiliary relay via
fuse 26 in the passenger compartment fusebox. The auxiliary relay's contact supply voltage is provided from the
vehicle battery through fusible links 1 & 7. When the relay's contacts close, a 12V supply is fed to the compass mirror
circuit board via fuse 15 in the passenger compartment fusebox. This is the supply voltage feed for the mirror's internal
compass.
Pin-2 of the electrical connector provides the path to earth.
Pin-3 of the electrical connector is a 12V ignition switched supply voltage (position 'II' of the ignition switch). The
supply voltage is provided to the mirror's circuit board via fuse 25 in the passenger compartment fusebox, and the
reverse lamp switch (normally closed) for vehicles with manual transmission or the starter inhibitor / reverse light
switch (normally closed) for vehicles with automatic transmission. This is the supply voltage feed for the mirror's
photochromatic dimming function.
