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.

POWER CONSUMPTION CONTRO
L SYSTEM : System DiagramINFOID:0000000006220168
POWER CONSUMPTION CONTROL SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006220169
OUTLINE
 IPDM E/R incorporates a power consumption control function that reduces the power consumption accord-
ing to the vehicle status.
 IPDM E/R changes its status (control mode) with the sleep wake up signal received from BCM via CAN com- munication.
Normal mode (wake-up)- CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.
- Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.
Low power consumption mode (sleep)- Low power consumption control is active.
- CAN transmission is stopped.
SLEEP MODE ACTIVATION
 IPDM E/R judges that the sleep-ready conditions are fu lfilled when the ignition switch is OFF and none of the
conditions below are present. Then it transmits a sleep-ready signal (ready) to BCM via CAN communica-
tion.
- Outputting signals to actuators
- Switches or relays operating
- Output requests are being received from control units via CAN communication.
 IPDM E/R stops CAN communication and enters the low power consumption mode when it receives a sleep
wake up signal (sleep) from BCM and the sleep-ready conditions are fulfilled.
WAKE-UP OPERATION
 IPDM E/R changes from the low power consumption mode to the normal mode when it receives a sleep
wake-up signal (wake up) from BCM or any of the followi ng conditions is fulfilled. In addition, it transmits a
sleep-ready signal (not-ready) to BCM via CAN communication to report the CAN communication start.
- Ignition switch ON
- An output request is received from a control unit via CAN communication.
