BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE)
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
When BCM is in sleep mode, transistors of OUTPUT 1 and 5 stop the output, and BCM enters low-cur-
rent-consumption mode. OUTPUTS (2, 3, and 4) turn ON-OFF at 60 ms intervals, and receives lighting
switch input only.
CAN COMMUNICATION CONTROL
CAN communication allows a high rate of information through the two communication lines (CAN-L, CAN-H)
connecting the various control units in the system. Each control unit transmits/receives data, but selectively
reads required data only.
BCM STATUS CONTROL
BCM changes its status depending on the operation status in order to save power consumption.
1. CAN communication status
With ignition switch ON, CAN communicates with other control units normally.
Control by BCM is being operated properly.
When ignition switch is OFF, switching to sleep mode is possible.
Even when ignition switch is OFF, if CAN communication with IPDM E/R and combination meter is
active, CAN communication status is active.
2. Sleep transient status
This status shuts down CAN communication when ignition switch is turned OFF.
It transmits sleep request signal to IPDM E/R and combination meter.
Two seconds after CAN communication of all control units stops, CAN communication switches to inac-
tive status.
3. CAN communication inactive status
With ignition switch OFF, CAN communication is not active.
With ignition switch OFF, control performed only by BCM is active.
Three seconds after CAN communication of all control units stops, CAN communication switches to
inactive status.
4. Sleep status

Revision: October 20052005 QX56
BCM is activated with low current consumption mode.
CAN communication is not active.
When CAN communication operation is detected, it switches to CAN communication status.
When a state of the following switches changes, it switches to CAN communication state:
–Key switch
–Hazard switch
–Door lock/unlock switch
–Front door switch (LH, RH)
–Rear door switch (LH, RH)
–Back door switch
–Combination switch (passing, lighting switch 1st position, front fog lamp)
–Keyfob (lock/unlock signal)
–Door lock assembly LH (key cylinder switch)
When control performed only by BCM is required by switch, it shifts to CAN communication inactive
mode.
Status of combination switch reading function is changed.

CONSULT-II Function (BCM)EKS00D7Z
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT–II INSPECTION 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 carries out CAN communication.
