2011 FORD KUGA Electric

Component Description
DC/AC converter
The converter operates with a series connection
of two power converter circuits. The primary power
converter here is a push-pull converter. It converts
the 12 V supply from the electrical system of the
vehicle to an intermediate direct current link of
approx. 320 V.
From this intermediate direct current link, the
downstream full H-bridge circuit generates a
pulse-width modulated output voltage with 230
V/50 Hz.
A controller modulates the pulse width of the
square-wave output voltage and maintains an
effective output voltage of 230 V under varying
load conditions and under different input voltages.
Here, the rising and falling edge of the positive and
negative square wave pulse are controlled
symmetrically to the ideal shape of a sine wave,
which - among other things - also makes a positive
contribution to electromagnetic compatibility.
DC/AC converters which supply a modified square
wave output voltage are referred to as 'Modified
Sine Wave Inverters".
With this type of system there is no need for a
residual current operated device for protection in
the event of accidental contact, as all of the 230 V
lines are double-insulated. Potential-free separation
of the entire 230 V voltage part from the vehicle is
provided (electrical isolation).
The output voltage of 230 V/50 Hz is not generated
until the switching voltage is present at terminal 1
of the converter via the AC mains outlet switch.
The converter operates with the ignition switched
on and a vehicle electrical supply of between 11
V and 16 V. Internal voltage monitoring in the converter deactivates the system if the input
voltage is outside this range.

In order to prevent accidents and the risk of
electrical shock, the outlet is protected with a child
safety device and the AC outlet switch.
In order to make the system safer for children, the
safety catches for the 230 V contacts can only be
pushed to one side by pressing a Euro plug evenly
into both of the connector openings.
The AC mains outlet switch only activates the
system when a consumer is connected to the
outlet. G1055639en

Principles of Operation
NOTE: Voice control will only operate with the
audio unit and components required switched ON.
Voice Control
The portable support electronics (PSE) module
has a voice control system. The customer will be
able to push the VOICE button on the audio control
switch located on the steering column lower
shroud, this will activate the PSE module and allow
voice control. An audible tone will be heard through
the audio unit speakers after which, a voice
command can then be spoken into the microphone
located in the overhead console.
The incoming calls and voice confirmation can be
heard through the audio system speakers.
When a voice command is spoken into the
microphone it will be sent as a signal to the PSE
module. The signal is then sent from the PSE
module to the relevant components on the
medium-speed controller area network (CAN) bus
network. The component will then convert the
signal back into the original voice command.
The components that the PSE module interacts
with are as follows:
• audio unit
• navigation system display module
• cellular phone
For additional information on the cellular phone
system, REFER to the cellular phone Owner's
Guide.
Bluetooth
An input can be given through the cellular phone
with or without the cellular phone connected to the
handset holder. Providing that the cellular phone
is one of the recommended cellular phones for the
system, is supplied with the Bluetooth technology
and the cellular phone is programmed to the PSE
module.
When selected as active the Bluetooth technology
is a wireless system that interacts with the relevant component modules through the PSE module. The
general operation of the Bluetooth is similar to the
voice control.
Bluetooth technology cannot transfer the cellular
phone's PHONEBOOK or recent outgoing and
incoming call details to the audio unit or navigation
system display module. If the cellular phone is
placed into the handset holder the PHONEBOOK
data and recent outgoing and incoming call
information will be transferred to the audio unit or
navigation system display module.
For additional information, REFER to the cellular
phone Owner's Guide.
Inspection and Verification
NOTE: Make sure that the cellular phone is
featured on the list of recommended cellular
phones for the system.
Make sure that the PSE module and cellular
phone are configured to each other before
starting a system diagnosis. ENTER the
following PIN number on the cellular phone to
configure the cellular phone to the PSE module:
0000.
Make sure that the MUTE symbol is not
displayed on the audio unit when trying to
operate the cellular phone system. If the MUTE
symbol is displayed, this indicates that the PSE
module requires configuring to the vehicle and
the cellular phone requires programming to the
PSE module. GO to
Pinpoint Test C.
1. Verify the customer concern by operating the system using the customers cellular phone.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of electrical damage.

FORD KUGA 2011.0MY WORKSHOP REPAIR MANUAL

The manual headlamp levelling system operates
with an electric motor which is controlled via a
rotary control in the instrument cluster.
Turn signals
The GEM switches the direction indicators and the
direction indicator side repeaters on.
The GEM sends a signal to the instrument cluster
via the CAN (controller area network) bus to switch
on the relevant turn indicator and the acoustic
signal.
The signals from the hazard flasher switch and
from the multifunction switch are transmitted to the
GEM via a wiring connection.
Combined rain sensor/light sensor
The ambient light sensor determines the general
light intensity.
For this purpose, it detects the light over as wide
an angle as possible, without taking the direction
of incidence into account.
The front light sensor determines the light intensity
directly in front of the vehicle.
If both the ambient light sensor and the front light
sensor detect a sudden reduction in light intensity
at the same time, then an algorithm-based
calculation is used to determine the fact that the
vehicle has entered a tunnel, a multi-storey car
park or a long underpass.
In this case the request for switching on the
external lighting and the indicator in the instrument
cluster is transmitted to the GEM.
If the vehicle enters into the shade thrown by a
large truck, the two sensors will register different
light intensities.. In this case, the algorithm-based
calculation will not result in the lights being
switched on.
The GEM incorporates a stepped switch-off of the
dipped beam headlamps, side lamps, license plate
illumination and the instrument cluster and
instrument panel illumination. If the ambient light
changes from dark to bright, the GEM first switches
off the low beams. The side lamps, license plate
lamps as well as the instrument cluster and
instrument panel illumination are switched off
approx. 6 seconds after the low beams have been
switched off.

An acoustic signal sounds and the turn signal
lamps flash to indicate receipt of each input signal
by the generic electronic module.
Test the windshield wiper "intermittent mode" stage
input signal (only vehicles with adjustable
intermittent mode)
The windshield wiper switch must be switched to
"intermittent mode" in order to test the input signal.
The delay times of the input signals can then be
tested by operating the rotary switch. Each change
of the rotary switch position is indicated by an
acoustic signal and illumination of the turn signals.
Output signals
SWITCH the wiper switch to the "intermittent""
position to test the output signals. PRESSING the
heated rear window switch activates the output
signals in the following order:
a. Turn Indicator Left Hand

Ending the service mode
The GEM automatically ends service mode 20
seconds after the last input or at a driving speed
of over 7 km/h. However, service mode can be
manually ended at any time by proceeding as
follows:
• OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
• SWITCH OFF the ignition
• RELEASE the switch of the heated rear window
3 signals sound and the turn signal lamps illuminate
to indicate that service mode has ended.
Reset service mode

do not operate or do not operate properly, check
the following functions:
• Instrument cluster illumination, side lamps and license plate lamp in autolamps mode
• Rear wiper
• Headlamp Washers
• Electric booster heater
• Active anti-theft sounder
• Heated windshield
If one or more of the listed functions is not OK, it's
possible that the cause of the fault is due to not
exiting service mode properly. To reactivate the
functions correctly, perform the following steps:
1. SWITCH OFF the ignition
2. SWITCH OFF the switch for the windscreen wash/wipe system
3. OPERATE the switch of the heated rear window
and HOLD IT THERE
4. Turn on the ignition. 5. RELEASE the heated rear window switch (an
acoustic signal will sound if activation has been
