Checking Axle and Suspension Parts
ELS001J5
FRONT AND REAR AXLE AND SUSPENSION PARTS
Check front and rear axle and suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear or other damage.
lShake each wheel to check for excessive play.
lRotate each wheel to check for abnormal noise.
lCheck axle and suspension nuts and bolts for looseness.
lCheck the strut and shock absorber for oil leakage or other damage.
lCheck suspension ball joints for grease leakage and ball joint dust cover for cracks or other damage.
FRONT DRIVE SHAFT
Check the boots and drive shaft for cracks, wear, damage, and
grease leakage.

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
lCAN communication is normally performed with other control units.
lIndividual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.
lA status is changed into sleep transient status when receiving a sleep request signal from BCM while
all the systems controlled by IPDM E/R under suspension.
2. Sleep transient status
lProcess to stop CAN communication is activated.
lAll systems controlled by IPDM E/R are stopped. When 3 second has elapsed after CAN communica-
tion with other control units is stopped, status switches to sleep status.
3. Sleep status
lIPDM E/R operates in low power mode.
lCAN communication is stopped.
lWhen a change in CAN communication signal is detected, status switches to CAN communication sta-
tus.
lWhen a change in ignition switch signal is detected, status switches to CAN communication status.
CAN Communication System DescriptionEKS00PA9
Refer toLAN-23, "CAN COMMUNICATION".
Function of Detecting Ignition Relay MalfunctionEKS00PAA
lWhen the integrated ignition relay is stuck in a “closed contact” position and cannot be turned OFF, IPDM
E/R turns ON tail and parking lamps for 10 minutes to indicate IPDM E/R malfunction.
lWhen the state of the integrated ignition relay does not agree with the state of the ignition switch signal
received with CAN communication, the IPDM E/R activates the tail lamp relay.
NOTE:
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the tail lamps are OFF.
