System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328266
Control of the headlamp system operation is dependent upon t he position of the combination switch (lighting
switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 2ND position, the BCM (body control module) receives input
signal requesting the headlamps (and tail lamps) illuminate. This input signal is communicated to the IPDM E/
R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) through the CAN communication lines. The CPU (central
processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R contro ls the headlamp high and headlamp low relay coils. These
relays, when energized, direct power to the respective headlamps, which then illuminate.
If voltage is applied to a high beam solenoid, the bulb shade will move, even a xenon head lamp bulb comes
out, and a high beam and a low beam are changed.

System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328383
Control of the parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamp operation is dependent upon the position of the
lighting switch (combination switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 1ST position, the BCM (body
control module) receives input signal requesting the parki ng, license plate, side marker and tail lamps to illumi-
nate. This input signal is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room)
through the CAN communication lines. CPU (central processi ng unit) located in the IPDM E/R controls the tail
lamp relay coil. This relay, when energized, directs pow er to the parking, license plate, side marker and tail
lamps, which then illuminate.
The current that flows by Rear combination lamp cont rol unit is controlled, and a tail lamp (LED) is made to
turn ON.

ILLUMINATION
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328422
Control of illumination lamps operation is dependent upon position of lighting switch (combination switch).
When lighting switch is placed in the 1ST or 2ND positi on (or if auto light system is activated), BCM (body con-
trol module) receives input signal requesting illuminati on lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communi-
cated to IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) through the CAN communication. The
CPU (central processing unit) located in the IPDM E/R co ntrols tail lamp relay coil. This relay, when energized,
directs power to illumination lamps, which then illuminate.
Power is supplied at all times
 through 10A fuse (No. 71, located in IPDM E/R)
 to tail lamp relay, located in IPDM E/R, and
 to CPU located in IPDM E/R.

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE
ROOM)
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328870
 IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engi ne Room) integrates the relay box and fuse block
which were originally placed in engine compartment. It c ontrols integrated relay via IPDM E/R control circuit.
 IPDM E/R-integrated control circuit performs ON-OFF operation of relay, CAN communication control, oil
pressure switch signal, and hood switch signal reception, etc.
 It controls operation of each electrical pa rt via ECM, BCM and CAN communication lines.
CAUTION:
None of the IPDM E/R-integr ated relays can be removed.
SYSTEMS CONTROLLED BY IPDM E/R
IPDM E/R receives a request signal fr om each control unit with CAN communication. It controls each system.
CAN COMMUNICATION LINE CONTROL
With CAN communication, by connecting each control uni t using two communication lines (CAN-L line, CAN-H
line), it is possible to transmit maximum amount of in formation with minimum wiring. Each control unit can
transmit and receive data, and reads necessary information only.
Fail- Safe Control
 When CAN communication with other control units is impos sible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control. After
CAN communication recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.
 Operation of control parts by IPDM E/R during fail-safe mode is as follows:
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  CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.
 Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.
 When sleep request signal is received from BCM, mode is switched to sleep waiting status.
2. Sleep waiting status  Process to stop CAN communication is activated.

 With the ignition switch OFF, the parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps is 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.

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
 All systems controlled by IPDM E/R are stopped. When 3 seconds have elapsed after CAN communica-
tion with other control units is st opped, mode switches to sleep status.
3. Sleep status  IPDM E/R operates in low power mode.
 CAN communication is stopped.
 When a change in CAN communication line is detected, mode switches to CAN communication status.
 When a change hood switch or ignition switch signal is detected, mode switches to CAN communication
status.
CAN Communication System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001328871
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Modern
vehicles are equipped with many electronic control units and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent ). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with 2 communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/recei ves data but selectively reads required data only.
CAN Communication UnitINFOID:0000000001328872
Refer to LAN-43, "CAN System Specification Chart".
Function of Detecting I gnition Relay MalfunctionINFOID:0000000001328873
 When contact point of integrated ignition relay is st uck and cannot be turned OFF, IPDM E/R turns ON park-
ing, license plate, side marker and tail lamps for 10 minutes to indicate ignition relay malfunction.
 When a state of ignition relay having built-in does not agr ee with a state of ignition switch signal input by a
CAN communication from BCM, IPDM E/R lets tail lamp relay operate.
NOTE:
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the tail lamps are OFF.
