CAN COMMUNICATION CONTROL
When CAN communication with ECM and BCM is impossible, IPDM E/R performs fail-s afe control. After CAN
communication recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.
If No CAN Communication Is Available With ECM
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.

INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
Preliminary CheckINFOID:0000000005146183
DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the sonar sensor preliminary check is to confirm that there are no outside factors affecting the
sonar system.
CONDITIONS
• Ignition switch ON
• No obstructions within 3.0 m (10 ft.) of sonar sensors
SONAR SENSOR STATUS CHECK
• Check that the sonar sensors are properly aligned (no deformation in sensor mounting areas).
• Check that snow, mud or other foreign obj ects are not adhering to the sonar sensors.
• Check that there is no deformation, scratc hes or other damage to the sonar sensors.
• Check that water has not accu mulated in the sonar sensors.
CAUTION:
Use water, cotton swab, or other soft material for cleaning the sensors.
1. Check that there are no obstacles wit hin each sonar sensor's detection range.
2. Check that there are no nearby ultrasound sources such as the sounds of vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines or truck air brakes.
3. Check that the vehicle is on a level surface.
Sonar sensors Detection range
Front Approx. 1.0 m (3 ft.) maximum
Rear Approx. 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) maximum

REMOVAL
CAUTION:
• Do not attempt to repair or replace damaged direct-connect SRS component connectors. If a driver air bag direct-connect harness connector is damaged, the spiral cable must be replaced.
• Before servicing the SRS, turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect both battery terminals and wait at
least three minutes.
• When servicing the SRS, do not work from directly in front of air bag module.
1. Disconnect the negative and positive battery term inals, then wait at least three minutes.
2. Remove the left and right side bolts.
3. Lift the driver air bag module from the steering wheel.
4. Disconnect the air bag harness and horn connectors, then remove the driver air bag module. • For removal/installation of the direct-connect SRS connectors, refer to SRC-9, "

Component Connectors".
CAUTION:
• When servicing the SRS, do not work from directly in front of air bag module.
• Always place air bag module wi th pad side facing upward.
• Do not insert any foreign object s (screwdriver, etc.) into air
bag module or harness connectors.
• Do not disassemble air bag module.
• Do not use old bolts after removal; replace with new bolts.
• Do not expose the air bag mo dule to temperatures exceeding
