When CAN communication with ECM and BCM is impossible,
IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control. After CAN
communication recovers normally, it also returns to normal control.

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 volt age 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 malfunc tion when the ignition switch is turned OFF.
FRONT WIPER PROTECTION FUNCTION
IPDM E/R detects front wiper stop position by a front wiper stop position signal.
When a front wiper stop position signal is in the conditi ons listed below, IPDM E/R stops power supply to wiper
after repeating a front wiper 10 seconds activation and 20 seconds stop.
NOTE:
This operation status can be confirmed on the IPDM E/ R “Data Monitor” that displays “BLOCK” for the item
“WIP PROT” while the wiper is stopped.
STARTER MOTOR PROTECTION FUNCTION
IPDM E/R turns OFF the starter control relay to protect the starter motor when the starter control relay remains
active for 90 seconds.

 The wiper is operated at LO speed until the ignition switch is turned OFF if the fail-safe con- trol is activated while the front wiper is set in the INT mode and the front wiper motor is op-
erating.
 Return automatically wiper to stop position when ignition switch is turned ON if fail-safe con- trol is activated while front wiper motor is operated and wiper stops in the other position than
stop position.

AUTO ACTIVE TEST
Description
In auto active test, the IPDM E/R sends a drive si
gnal to the following systems to check their operation.
 Oil pressure warning lamp
 Rear window defogger
 Front wiper (LO, HI)
 Parking lamp
 License plate lamp
 Tail lamp
 Side marker lamp
 Front fog lamp
 Headlamp (LO, HI)
 A/C compressor (magnet clutch)
Operation Procedure
CAUTION:
Never perform auto active test in the following conditions.
 Engine is running.
 CONSULT-III is connected.
1. Close the hood and lift the wiper arms from the windshield. (Prevent windshield damage due to wiper
operation)
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield beforehand.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON, and within 20 seconds, pr ess the driver door switch 10 times. Then turn the
ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
Close passenger door.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. Af ter that the horn sounds once and the auto active test
starts.
CAUTION:
Engine starts when igniti on switch is turned ON while brake pedal is depressed.
5. The oil pressure warning lamp starts blinking when the auto active test starts.
6. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
 When auto active test has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn the ignition switch OFF.
 When auto active test is not activated, door swit ch may be the cause. Check door switch. Refer to DLK-117,
"ComponentFunctionCheck".
Inspection in Auto Active Test
When auto active test is actuated, the following operation sequence is repeated 3 times.

Concept of auto active test
 IPDM E/R starts the auto active test with the door
switch signals transmitted by BCM via CAN communica-
tion. Therefore, the CAN communication line between IPDM E/R and BCM is considered normal if the auto
active test starts successfully.
 The auto active test facilitates troubleshooting if any systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated.
