• to IPDM E/R terminals 38 and 59
• through body grounds E9, E15 and E24.
When front air control (rear window defogger switch) is turned to ON, ground is supplied
• to BCM terminal 9
• through front air control terminal 11
• through front air control terminal 1
• through body grounds M57, M61 and M79.
Then rear window defogger switch is illuminated.
Then BCM recognizes that rear window defogger switch is turned to ON.
Then it sends rear window defogger switch signals to IPDM E/R and display control unit via CAN communica-
tion (CAN-H, CAN-L).
When display control unit receives rear window defogger switch signals, and displays on the screen.
When IPDM E/R receives rear window defogger switch signals, ground is supplied
• to rear window defogger relay (located in the IPDM E/R)
• through IPDM E/R terminal 38
• through IPDM E/R terminal 59
• through body grounds E9, E15 and E24
and then rear window defogger relay is energized.
With power and ground supplied, rear window defogger filaments heat and defog the rear window.
When rear window defogger relay is turned to ON, power is supplied
• through heated mirror relay (located in the IPDM E/R)
• through IPDM E/R terminal 23
• to door mirror defogger (LH and RH) terminal 10.
Door mirror defogger (LH and RH) is grounded through body grounds M57, M61 and M79.
With power and ground supplied, rear window defogger filaments heat and defog the rear window and door
mirror defogger filaments heat and defog the mirror.

BCM diagnostic
test itemDiagnostic mode Content
Inspection by partWORK SUPPORTSupports inspections and adjustments. Commands are transmitted to the BCM for
setting the status suitable for required operation, input/output signals are received
from the BCM and received data is displayed.
DATA MONITOR Displays BCM input/output data in real time.
ACTIVE TEST Operation of electrical loads can be checked by sending drive signal to them.
SELF-DIAG RESULTS Displays BCM self-diagnosis results.
CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR The results of transmit/receive diagnosis of CAN communication can be read.
ECU PART NUMBER BCM part number can be read.
CONFIGURATION Performs BCM configuration read/write functions.
Monitor item “Operation” Content
REAR DEF SW “ON/OFF”Displays “Press (ON)/others (OFF)” status determined with the rear window defogger
switch.
IGN ON SW “ON/OFF” Displays “IGN (ON)/OFF” status determined with the ignition switch signal.
Test item Content
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER Gives a drive signal to the rear window defogger to activate it.

Rear Window Defogger Switch Circuit InspectionINFOID:0000000003533077
1.CHECK REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH OPERATION
With CONSULT-II
Check (“REAR DEF SW”, “IGN ON SW”) in DATA MONITOR mode
with CONSULT-II. Refer to GW-74, "
CONSULT-II Function (BCM)".
Without CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Check voltage between BCM connector and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> Rear window defogger switch check is OK.
NG >> GO TO 2.
