through 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to key switch and key lock solenoid terminal 3.
Key is removed from ignition key cylinder (key switch OFF), power will not be supplied to BCM terminal 37.
Serial data is supplied

to BCM terminal 22

through main power window and door lock/unlock switch terminal 14.
At the time that front door LH is opened, BCM detects that front door LH is unlocked. It determines that interior
room lamp and map lamp timer operation conditions are met, and turns the interior room lamps ON for 30 sec-
onds.
Key is in ignition key cylinder (key switch ON), power is supplied

through key switch and key lock solenoid terminal 4

to BCM terminal 37.
When key is removed from key switch and key lock solenoid (key switch OFF), power supply to BCM terminal
37 is terminated. BCM detects that key has been removed, determines that interior room lamp and map lamp
timer conditions are met, and turns the interior room lamps ON for 30 seconds.
When front door LH opens → closes, and the key is not inserted in the key switch and key lock solenoid (key
switch OFF), BCM terminal 47 changes between 0V (door open) → 12V (door closed). The BCM determines
that conditions for interior room lamp operation are met and turns the interior room lamp ON for 30 seconds.
Timer control is canceled under the following conditions.

Front door LH is locked [when locked by keyfob, main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or front
door lock assembly LH (key cylinder switch)]

Front door LH is opened (front door switch LH turns ON)

Ignition switch ON.
INTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
If interior lamp is left “ON”, it will not be turned off even when door is closed.
BCM turns off interior lamp automatically to save battery 30 minutes after ignition switch is turned off.
BCM controls interior lamps listed below:

Va n i t y l a m p

Room/map lamp

Cargo lamp

Personal lamp

St ep la m ps

Puddle lamps

Foot lamps

Ignition keyhole illumination
After lamps turn OFF by the battery saver system, the lamps illuminate again when

signal received from keyfob, or main power window and door lock/unlock switch or front door lock assem-
bly LH (key cylinder switch) is locked or unlocked

door is opened or closed

key is removed from ignition key cylinder (key switch OFF) or inserted in ignition key cylinder (key switch
ON).
Interior lamp battery saver control period can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.

General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owner can perform these
checks and inspections or have their INFINITI dealers perform them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the
vehicle, etc. Item

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
PFP:284B7
System DescriptionEKS00BN2

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

IPDM E/R-integrated control circuits perform ON-OFF operation of relays, CAN communication control,
etc.

It controls operation of each electrical component 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
1. Lamp control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the following lamps:

Headlamps (Hi, Lo)

Parking lamps

Tail and license lamps

Front fog lamps
2. Wiper control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the front wipers.
3. Rear window defogger relay control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the rear window defogger
relay.
4. A/C compressor control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the ECM and controls the A/C compressor
(magnetic clutch).
5. Starter control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the starter relay.
6. Cooling fan control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the ECM and controls the cooling fan relays.
7. Horn control Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the horn relay.
CAN COMMUNICATION LINE CONTROL
With CAN communication, by connecting each control unit using two communication lines (CAN L-line, CAN
H-line), it is possible to transmit a maximum amount of information with minimum wiring. Each control unit can
transmit and receive data, and reads necessary information only.
1. Fail-safe control

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

Operation of control parts by IPDM E/R during fail-safe mode is as follows:
Controlled system Fail-safe mode
Headlamp

With the ignition switch ON, the headlamp (low) is ON.

With the ignition switch OFF, the headlamp (low) is OFF.
Tail and parking lamps

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

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

With the ignition switch ON, the cooling fan HI operates.

With the ignition switch OFF, the cooling fan stops.
Front wiper Until the ignition switch is turned off, the 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 relay OFF
