IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
If No CAN Communication Is Available With BCM
IGNITION RELAY MALFUNCTION DETECTION FUNCTION
• IPDM E/R monitors the voltage at the contact circuit and excitation coil circuit of the ignition relay inside it.
• IPDM E/R judges the ignition relay error if the voltage differs between the contact circuit and the excitation
coil circuit.
• If the ignition relay cannot turn OFF due to contact seizure, it activates the tail lamp relay for 10 minutes to alert the user to the ignition relay malfunction when the ignition switch is turned OFF.
NOTE:
The tail lamp turns OFF when the ignition switch is turned ON.
FRONT WIPER CONTROL
IPDM E/R detects front wiper stop posit ion by a front wiper auto stop signal.
When a front wiper auto stop signal is in the conditions listed below, IPDM E/R stops power supply to wiper
after repeating a front wiper 10 second activation and 20 second stop five times.
NOTE:
This operation status can be confirmed on the IPDM E/R “DATA MONITOR” that displays “Block” for the item
“WIP PROT” while the wiper is stopped.
STARTER MOTOR PROTECTION FUNCTION
IPDM E/R turns OFF the starter control relay to protect the starter motor when the starter control relay remains
active for 90 seconds.
Control part Fail-safe in operation
Cooling fan • Turns ON the cooling fan relay when the ignition switch is turned ON
• Turns OFF the cooling fan relay when the ignition switch is turned OFF
Control part
Fail-safe in operation
Headlamp • Turns ON the headlamp low relay when the ignition switch is turned ON
• Turns OFF the headlamp low relay when the ignition switch is turned OFF
• Headlamp high relay OFF
•Parking lamps
• License plate lamps
• Tail lamps • Turns ON the tail lamp relay when the ignition switch is turned ON
• Turns OFF the tail lamp relay when the ignition switch is turned OFF
Front wiper • The status just before activation of fail-safe control is maintained until the ignition
switch is turned OFF while the front wiper is operating at LO or HI speed.
• The wiper is operated at LO speed until the ignition switch is turned OFF if the fail- safe control is activated while the front wipe r is set in the INT mode and the front wiper
motor is operating.

FRONT WIPER DOES NOT OPERATE
FRONT WIPER DOES NOT OPERATE
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001735599
The front wiper does not operate under any operation conditions.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000001735600
1. CHECK WIPER RELAY OPERATION
IPDM E/R AUTO ACTIVE TEST
1. Start IPDM E/R auto active test. Refer to PCS-8, "
System Description".
2. Check that the front wiper operates at the LO/HI operation.
CONSULT-III ACTIVE TEST
1. Select "FRONT WIPER" of IPDM E/R active test item.
2. While operating the test item , check front wiper operation.
Is front wiper operation normal?
YES >> GO TO 5
NO >> GO TO 2
2. CHECK FRONT WIPER MOTOR FUSE
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Check that the following fuse is not blown.
Is the fuse blown?
YES >> Replace the fuse after repairing the applicable circuit.
NO >> GO TO 3
3. CHECK FRONT WIPER MOTOR GROUND OPEN CIRCUIT
1. Disconnect front wiper motor.
2. Check continuity between front wiper motor harness connector and ground.
Does continuity exist?
YES >> GO TO 4
NO >> Repair or replace harness.
4. CHECK FRONT WIPER MOTOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE
CONSULT-III ACTIVE TEST LO : Front wiper LO operation
HI : Front wiper HI operation
OFF : Stop the front wiper.
