gear and the sonar system is ON, the front sonar system does not
operate. (With front and rear sonar system only) 1. Check harness and connections between sonar control unit
and combination meter.
2. Replace sonar control unit.
Sonar system OFF indicator lamp lights up and buzzer sounds al-
though there are no obstacles within the detection range. 1. Check sonar sensors.
2. Check harness and connections between sonar sensors
and sonar control unit.
3. Replace sonar control unit.

HEATED STEERING WHEEL
System DiagramINFOID:0000000005147859
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000005147860
The heated steering wheel switch controls the heated steeri ng relay. When the switch is turned on, the relay is
energized and the heated steering system will operate. T he heated steering system will turn off when the
steering wheel temperature reaches approximately 86 ° F (30 ° C). Heated steering system operation can also
be canceled by pressing the heated steering wheel switch again.
NOTE:
If the surface temperature of the steering wheel is below 68 ° F (20 ° C), the system will heat the steering wheel
to approximately 86 ° F (30 ° C), and cycle off and on to maintain a temperature above 68 ° F (20 ° C). The indi-
cator light will remain on as long as the system is on. Push the switch again to turn the heated steering wheel
system off manually. The indicator light will go off.

Description
TCM TCM supplies power to the starter relay inside the IPDM E/R when
the selector lever is shifted to the P or N position.
BCM BCM sends a starter request signal to the CPU of the IPDM E/R
over the CAN communication lines.
IPDM E/R CPU inside IPDM E/R operates the starter relay at the request of
the BCM over the CAN communication lines.
Starter motor The starter motor plunger closes and the motor is supplied with
battery power, which in turn cranks the engine, when the “S” ter-
minal is supplied with electric power.

CONTROL SYSTEM DIAGRAM
CAN CommunicationINFOID:0000000005148511
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
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. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only. For details, refer to LAN-4,
"System Description".

*1: Spare for output speed sensor
*2: Spare for accelerator pedal position signal
*3: If these input and output signals are different, the TCM triggers the fail-safe function.
*4: CAN comm unications
*5: Used as a condition for starting self-diagnostics; if self-diagnostics are not started, it is judged that there is some kin d of error.
*6: A/T fluid temperature sensor 2 does not have any function.
Line Pressure ControlINFOID:0000000005148513
• When an input torque signal equivalent to the engine drive force is sent from the ECM to the TCM, the TCM
controls the line pressure solenoid.
