Electrical consumers are switched off when the
battery voltage is low if the GEM determines (as a
result of the message received from the PCM on
the CAN bus via the instrument cluster) that the
battery voltage has dropped below the threshold
value.
When the threshold for low battery voltage is
reached the GEM switches off the following
consumers in this order at intervals of 5 seconds:
• Heated windscreen
• Heated rear window
• Electric booster Heater
• A/C system
If the battery voltage increases back above the
lower threshold then all of the consumers which
were previously switched off are reactivated by the
GEM.
Once the electric consumers have been reactivated
their status is "switched off", i.e. the consumers
are switched off and await an input signal provided
from the relevant switch via the GEM; this means
that the driver needs to switch these components
back on again.
Electrical consumers are switched on when the
battery voltage is excessively high if the GEM
determines that the battery voltage has increased
above the threshold for overvoltage and the
charging system warning indicator has come on.
When the threshold is reached the GEM switches
on the following consumers in this order at intervals
of 5 seconds:
• Heated windscreen
• Heated rear window
When these components are deactivated again
their status is "switched off". This means that the
consumers are waiting for an input signal provided
from the relevant switch via the GEM.
Ignition overload protection
The ignition overload protection intermittently
disconnects certain circuits in order to restrict the
current being drawn from the battery while the
starter motor is operating.
The position of the ignition switch is broadcast by
the instrument cluster on the medium speed CAN
bus.
The ignition overload protection relay which is
integrated in the battery junction box is activated
by the GEM if the message "ignition switch in
position III" is received from the instrument cluster.
All of the electric consumers controlled by the
ignition overload protection relay are then switched
off.
The following consumers (among others) are
controlled by the ignition overload protection relay:
• Fog lamps
• Windscreen/rear window wash/wipe systems
• Backup lamps
• Heated washer nozzles
• Heating blower motor
• Seat heating
Headlamp switch-off delay
The headlamp switch-off delay utilizes the low
beam together with the peripheral lights (if
equipped) to illuminate the area surrounding the
vehicle. The function is activated by operating the
high beam lever when the ignition switch is in the
"0" position.
After the last door has been closed, the function
remains active for a further 30 seconds and then
switches off automatically.
When a door or the tailgate is open, the switch-off
time is extended to 180 seconds. After the last door
has been closed, the switch-off time is reset to 30
seconds.
The headlamp switch-off delay can be deactivated
prematurely by operating the high beam lever again
or by switching on the ignition.
The switch-off time is adjusted to set values at the
factory and cannot be re-programmed using the
Ford diagnostic unit.
