1. GENERAL FUNCTIONING
The UPC particpates in the following functions:
–distributing and protecting the electrical power,
–keyless vehicles,
–wipers,
–lighting,
–de-icing,
–air conditioning,
–oil pressure detection.
Distributing and protecting electrical power
The main function of the UPC is to switch on and distribute part of the power in order to supply the vehicle systems,
actuators or computers.
Another part of the power supply distribution is housed in the Engine Interconnection Unit but is not controlled
electronically by the computer.
+12 V battery feed
The UPC receives energy from the battery via the 1 track screwed connector and redistributes +12 V around the
vehicle.
+ after ignition feed
The UCH requests the + APC via the multiplex network. When the UPC receives this request, it controls the APC
relay unconditionally.
Energy management
The computer transmits the signal to load the alternator on the multiplex network.
Keyless vehicle
In the Keyless vehicle function, the UPC participates in the start-up sub-function. The computer:
–receives the request to start up the UCH via the multiplex network,
–check that the start-up conditions have been met then controls the starter relay,
–can inhibit or turn off the starter relay command by means of a forbid start-up signal transmitted by the
injection computer on the multiplex network.
Air conditioning
For the operation of this function and the role of the UPC in setting up this function (see 62A, Air conditioning,
Function architecture and General functioning mode).
Cold loop
The computer receives the compressor switch-on request from the injection via the multiplex network.
The computer controls the compressor clutch activation relay.
Heating
The computer also controls the de-icing of the rear tailgate window and the electric rear view mirrors.
Fan assembly
When prompted for the engine check request, the UPC supplies the GMV with power.

Front wipers
The UPC receives the wiping requests from the UCH via the multiplex network.
The computer then controls the following requests:
–low or high speed windscreen wiper,
–windscreen wiper park position.
Lights
The UPC receives the lighting requests from the UCH via the multiplex network.
The computer then controls the following requests:
–side lights,
–dipped beam headlights,
–main beam headlights,
–front fog light.
Detecting the oil pressure
The UPC receives the signal from the oil pressure sensor and makes it available on the multiplex network.
2. UPC LEVELS
3 UPC levels can be fitted on vehicles:
–Entry level UPC,
–Top of the range UPC N2,
–Top of the range UPC N3.
Only the top of the range N2 and N3 UPCs are available as spare parts.
The N2 and N3 versions can be distinguished in the extent to which they control the high speed blower:
–on the N2, the UPC controls an external relay,
–on N3, the relay is integrated into the UPC.
