Recommended fluid is DEXRONTM III type ATF or equiva-
lent.
Refer to MA-14, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS" .


Check lines for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, dam-
age, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.

Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering fluid.
Axle and Suspension PartsBLS00064
Check front and rear axle and suspension parts for excessive play,
cracks, wear or other damage.

Shake each wheel to check for excessive play.

Check wheel bearings for smooth operation.

Check axle and suspension nuts and bolts for looseness.

Check strut (shock absorber) for oil leakage or other damage.

Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint
dust cover for cracks or other damage.

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
PFP:284B7
System DescriptionBKS0024N

IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room) integrates the relay box and fuse block
which were originally placed in engine room. It controls integrated relay via IPDM E/R control circuit.

IPDM E/R-integrated control circuit performs ON-OFF operation of relay, CAN communication control, oil
pressure switch signal, hood switch signal reception, etc.

It controls operation of each electrical part via ECM, BCM and CAN communication lines.
CAUTION:
None of the IPDM E/R-integrated relays can be removed.
SYSTEMS CONTROLLED BY IPDM E/R
FAIL-SAFE CONTROL

When CAN communication with other control units is impossible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control.
After CAN communication recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.

Operation of control parts by IPDM E/R during fail-safe mode is as follows:
Control system Transmit control unit Control part
Lamp control BCM

Headlamp (HI, LO)

Parking, license plate and tail lamps

Front fog lamp
Wiper control BCM Front wiper
Rear window defogger control BCM Rear window defogger
A/C compressor control ECM A/C compressor (magnet clutch)
Cooling fan control ECM Cooling fan
Horn control BCM Horn
Controlled system Fail-safe mode
Headlamp

With the ignition switch ON, low beam headlamp is ON.

With the ignition switch OFF, low beam headlamp is OFF.
Parking, license plate and tail lamps

With the ignition switch ON, parking, license plate and tail lamps are ON.

With the ignition switch OFF, parking, license plate and tail lamps are OFF.
Cooling fan

With the ignition switch ON, cooling fan HI operates.

With the ignition switch OFF, cooling fan stops.
Front wiperUntil the ignition switch is turned OFF, front wiper LO and HI remains in the same status it was
in just before fail−safe control was initiated.
Rear window defogger Rear window defogger is OFF.
A/C compressor A/C compressor is OFF.
Front fog lamp Front fog lamp is OFF.

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)

IPDM E/R STATUS CONTROL
In order to save power, IPDM E/R switches status by itself based on each operating condition.
1. CAN communication status

CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.

Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.

When sleep request signal is received from BCM, mode is switched to sleep waiting status.
2. Sleep waiting status

Process to stop CAN communication is activated.

All systems controlled by IPDM E/R are stopped. When 3 seconds have elapsed after CAN communi-
cation with other control units is stopped, mode switches to sleep status.
3. Sleep status

IPDM E/R operates in low power mode.

CAN communication is stopped.

When a change in CAN communication line is detected, mode switches to CAN communication status.

When a change hood switch or ignition switch signal is detected, mode switches to CAN communica-
tion status.
CAN Communication System DescriptionBKS0024O
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Modern
vehicles are equipped with many electronic control units and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with 2 communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication UnitBKS0024P
Refer to LAN-49, "CAN System Specification Chart" .
Function of Detecting Ignition Relay MalfunctionBKS0024Q

When contact point of integrated ignition relay is stuck and cannot be turned OFF, IPDM E/R turns ON tail
and parking lamps for 10 minutes to indicate ignition relay malfunction.

When a state of ignition relay having built-in does not agree with a state of Ignition switch signal input by a
CAN communication from BCM, IPDM E/R lets tail lamp relay operate.
NOTE:
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the tail lamp is OFF.

CONSULT-II Function (IPDM E/R)BKS0024R
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test mode shown following.
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION
Refer to GI-34, "CONSULT-II Start Procedure" .
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
SELF-DIAG RESULTS
Operation Procedure
1. Touch “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” on “SELECT DIAG MODE” screen.
2. Check display content in self-diagnostic results.
Display Item List
NOTE:
The details for display of the period are as follows:

CRNT: Error currently detected with IPDM E/R.

PAST: Error detected in the past and memorized with IPDM E/R.
DATA MONITOR
Operation Procedure
1. Touch “DATA MONITOR” on “SELECT DIAG MODE” screen.
2. Touch “ALL SIGNALS”, “MAIN SIGNALS” or “SELECTION FROM MENU” on “SELECT MONITOR ITEM”
screen.
3. When “ALL SIGNALS” is selected, all items will be monitored. When “MAIN SIGNALS” is selected, prede-
termined items will be monitored. When “SELECTION FROM MENU” is selected, touch individual items to
be monitored.
4. Touch “START”.
5. Touch “RECORD” while monitoring to record the status of the item being monitored. To stop recording,
touch “STOP”.
Inspection Item, Diagnosis Mode Description
SELF-DIAG RESULTS The IPDM E/R performs diagnosis of the CAN communication and self-diagnosis.
DATA MONITOR The input/output data of the IPDM E/R is displayed in real time.
CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR The result of transmit/receive diagnosis of CAN communication can be read.
ACTIVE TEST The IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to electronic components to check their operation.
