On Board Self-Diagnosis FunctionEKS00BJP
DESCRIPTION

Diagnosis function consists of the self-diagnosis mode performed automatically and the CONFIRMATION/
ADJUSTMENT mode operated manually.

Self-diagnosis mode checks for connections between the units constituting this system, analyzes each
individual unit at the same time, and displays the results on the LCD screen.

CONFIRMATION/ADJUSTMENT mode is used to perform trouble diagnosis that require operation and
judgment by an operator (trouble that cannot be automatically judged by the system), to check/change the
set value, and to display the History of Errors of the navigation system.
DIAGNOSIS ITEM
NOTE:
Make the status that is set by D/N function be shown.
ModeDescription
Self-diagnosis (DCU) Display control unit diagnosis.
Self-diagnosis (NAVI)

NAVI Control unit diagnosis (DVD-ROM drive) will not be diagnosed
when no map DVD-ROM is in it.

Analyzes connection between the NAVI control unit and the GPS
antenna and operation of each unit.
CONFIRMATION/
ADJUSTMENT Display diagnosis
In display control unit mode, color tone and shading of the screen can be
checked by the display of a color bar and a gray scale.
Vehicle signals In display control unit mode, analyzes the following vehicle signals: Vehi-
cle speed signal, light signal
NOTE , ignition switch signal, and reverse sig-
nal.
Auto Climate Control A/C self-diagnosis of A/C system.
Navigation Display diagnosis
In NAVI C/U mode, color tone and shading of the screen can be checked
by the display of a color bar and a gray scale.
Vehicle signals In NAVI C/U mode, analyzes the following vehicle signals: Vehicle speed
signal, light signal, ignition switch signal, and reverse signal.
History of Errors Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory (before turning ignition
switch ON) are displayed in this mode. Time and location when/where the
errors occurred are also displayed.
Naviga-
tion Display Lon-
gitude & Lat-
itude
Display the map. Use the joystick to adjust position. Longitude and latitude
will be displayed.
Speed Cali-
bration Under ordinary conditions, the navigation system distance measuring
function will automatically compensate for minute decreases in wheel and
tire diameter caused by tire wear or low-pressure. Speed calibration imme-
diately restores system accuracy in cases such as when distance calibra-
tion is needed because of the use of tire chains in inclement weather.
Angle
adjustment Corrects difference between actual turning angle of a vehicle and turning
angle of the car mark on the display.
Initialize
Location This mode is for initializing the current location. Use when the vehicle is
transported a long distance on a trailer, etc.
CAN DIAG SUPPORT MONITOR Display status of CAN communication.

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:
–Ignition switch
–Key switch (insert)
–Hazard switch
–Main door lock/unlock switch
–Front door switch (LH, RH)
–Rear door switch (LH, RH)
–Back latch (door ajar switch)
–Glass hatch ajar switch
–Combination switch (passing, lighting switch 1st position, front fog lamp)
–Keyfob (lock/unlock signal)
–Front 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.

to CPU (central processing unit) of the IPDM E/R, and

through 30A fusible link (letter j , located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to trailer tow relay 2 terminals 3 and 6, and

through 40A fusible link (letter k , located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to electric brake (pre-wiring) terminal 5.
With the ignition switch in the ON or START position, power is supplied

to ignition relay, located in the IPDM E/R, and

through 10A fuse (No. 59, located in the fuse and relay box)

to BCM terminal 38, and

through 10A fuse (No. 51, located in the IPDM E/R)

to trailer tow relay 2 terminal 1.
Ground is supplied

to BCM terminal 67

to electric brake (pre-wiring) terminal 1, and

through grounds M57, M61 and M79, and

to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 59

to trailer tow relay 1 terminal 2

to trailer tow relay 2 terminal 2, and

to trailer connector terminal 2

to trailer turn relay LH and RH terminal 2

through grounds E9, E15 and E24.
TRAILER TAIL LAMP OPERATION
The trailer tail lamps are controlled by the trailer tow relay 1.
With the lighting switch in the parking and tail lamp ON (1ST) position, AUTO position (and the auto light sys-
tem is activated) or headlamp ON (2ND) position, power is supplied

through the tail lamp relay, located in the IPDM E/R

through 10A fuse (No. 36, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 49

to trailer tow relay 1 terminal 1.
When energized, trailer tow relay 1 supplies tail lamp power to trailer connector terminal 6.
TRAILER BRAKE, TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD LAMP OPERATION
The trailer brake, turn signal and hazard lamps are controlled by the BCM through trailer turn relays (LH and
RH). When the brake pedal is depressed, the BCM receives stop lamp switch signal through CAN communi-
cation. If the brake pedal is depressed or either turn signal or the hazard lamps are turned on, the BCM sup-
plies voltage to the trailer turn relays (LH and RH) to make them cycle on and off.
Trailer turn relay LH output is supplied

through BCM terminal 52

to trailer turn relay LH terminal 1.
Trailer turn relay RH output is supplied

through BCM terminal 51

to trailer turn relay RH terminal 1.
Left trailer brake, turn signal and hazard lamp output is supplied

through trailer turn relay LH terminal 3

to trailer connector terminal 1.
Right trailer brake, turn signal and hazard lamp output is supplied

to trailer connector terminal 4.
TRAILER BRAKE OPERATION
The trailer brake is controlled by the electric brake. The electric brake receives stop lamp switch signal at elec-
tric brake (pre-wiring) terminal 2 when the brake pedal is depressed.
When the brake pedal is depressed, power is supplied by the electric brake

through electric brake (pre-wiring) terminal 3

to trailer connector terminal 3.
TRAILER POWER SUPPLY OPERATION
The trailer power supply is controlled by the trailer tow relay 2.
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse (No. 51, located in the IPDM E/R)

through IPDM E/R terminal 16

to trailer tow relay 2 terminal 1.
When energized, the trailer tow relay 2 supplies power

through trailer tow relay 2 terminals 5 and 7

to trailer connector terminal 5.
