Push-button Ignition Switch
INFOID:0000000006226165
Push-button ignition switch detects that push-button is pressed, and then transmits the signal to BCM. BCM
changes the power supply position with the operation of push-button ignition switch. BCM maintains the power
supply position status while push-button is not operated.
Remote Keyless Entry ReceiverINFOID:0000000006226166
Remote keyless entry receiver receives each button oper ation signal and electronic key ID signal from Intelli-
gent Key, and then transmits the signal to BCM.
Security Indicator LampINFOID:0000000006226167
Security indicator lamp is located on combination meter.
Security indicator lamp blinks when power supply position is any position other than ON to warn that INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM-N ATS [IVIS (NATS)] is on board.
Starter Control RelayINFOID:0000000006226170
Engine starting system functions by controlling both starter relay and starter control relay.
Both relays are integrated in IPDM E/R. Starter relay is controlled by BCM, and starter control relay is con-
trolled by IPDM E/R on request from BCM.
IPDM E/R transmits starter relay and starter control relay status signal to BCM via CAN communication.
Starter RelayINFOID:0000000006226171
Engine starting system functions by controlling both starter relay and starter control relay.
Both relays are integrated in IPDM E/R. Starter relay is controlled by BCM, and starter control relay is con-
trolled by IPDM E/R on request from BCM.
IPDM E/R transmits starter relay and starter control relay status signal to BCM via CAN communication.
Steering Lock RelayINFOID:0000000006226172
Steering lock relay is integrated in IPDM E/R, and supplies power source to steering lock unit.
When IPDM E/R receives the steering lock relay ON request signal from BCM, IPDM E/R turns ON steering
lock relay and then transmits the steering lock relay condition signal to BCM.
Steering Lock UnitINFOID:0000000006226173
Steering lock unit performs steering lock/unlock operation on request from BCM, and power source is supplied
from steering lock relay integrated in IPDM E/R.
When push-button ignition switch is pressed while the In telligent Key is inside the vehicle, BCM performs the
ID verification with steering lock unit. Steering lock unit releases the steering lock based on the result of the ID
verification.
Steering lock unit has 2 switches (steering lock status switch and steering unlock status switch) inside. BCM
judges the steering lock/unlock condition by comparing these switch signals and steering lock unit status sig-
nal transmitted from IPDM E/R via CAN communication.
Stop Lamp SwitchINFOID:0000000006226174
Stop lamp switch detects that brake pedal is depressed, and then transmits the signal to BCM.
Transmission Range SwitchINFOID:0000000006226175
Transmission range switch is integrated in A/T asse mbly, and detects the A/T shift selector position.
TCM receives the transmission range switch signal and then transmits the P/N position signal to BCM and
IPDM E/R.
BCM confirms the A/T shift selector position with the following 5 signals.
P position signal from A/T shift selector (detention switch)
P/N position signal from TCM
P position signal from IPDM E/R (CAN)
P/N position signal from IPDM E/R (CAN)
P/N position signal from TCM (CAN)
IPDM E/R confirms the A/T shift select or position with the following 3 signals.

SYSTEM
PRECAUTIONS FOR KEY REGISTRATION
The ID registration is a procedure that erases the cu
rrent IVIS (NATS) ID once, and then reregisters a new
ID. Therefore before starting the registration operation, collect all registered Intelligent Keys from the cus-
tomer.
When registering the Intelligent Key, perform only one procedure to simultaneously register both ID [IVIS
(NATS) ID and Intelligent Key ID].
SECURITY INDICATOR LAMP
Warns that the vehicle is equipped with IVIS (NATS).
Security indicator lamp always blinks when the pow er supply position is any position other than ON.
NOTE:
Because security indicator lamp is highly efficient, the battery is barely affected.
ENGINE START OPERATION WHEN INTELLIGENT KEY IS CONTACTED TO PUSH-BUTTON IG-
NITION SWITCH
1. When brake pedal is depressed while selector leve r is in the P position, BCM activates NATS antenna
amp. that is located behind push-button ignition switch.
2. When Intelligent Key (transponder built-in) backsi de is contacted to push-button ignition switch, BCM
starts IVIS (NATS) ID verification between BCM and Intelligent Key (transponder built-in) via NATS
antenna amp.
3. When the IVIS (NATS) ID verification result is OK, buzzer in combination meter sounds and BCM trans-
mits the result to ECM.
4. When push-button ignition switch is pressed, BCM transmits steering unlock signal to steering lock unit
and IPDM E/R.
5. IPDM E/R turns steering lock relay ON and supplies power supply to the steering lock unit.
6. The steering lock is released.
7. BCM transmits the power supply stop signal to IPDM E/R when detecting that the steering lock is in the
unlock position.
8. IPDM E/R turns steering lock relay OFF and stops power supply to the steering lock unit.
9. BCM turns ACC relay ON and transmits ignition power supply ON signal to IPDM E/R.
10. IPDM E/R turns the ignition relay ON and starts the ignition power supply.
11. BCM detects that the selector lever position is P or N.
12. BCM transmits starter request signal to IPDM E/R and turns the starter relay in IPDM E/R ON if BCM judges that the engine start condition* is satisfied.
13. IPDM E/R turns the starter control relay ON when receiving the starter request signal.
14. Power supply is supplied through the starter relay and the starter control relay to operate the starter motor.
15. When BCM receives feedback signal from ECM indica ting that the engine is started, BCM transmits a
stop signal to IPDM E/R and stops cranking by turning off the starter motor relay. (If engine start is unsuc-
cessful, cranking stops automatically within 5 seconds.)
*: For the engine start condition, refer to “POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON
IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION” below.
POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERA-
TION
The power supply position changing operation can be performed with the following operations.
NOTE:
When an Intelligent Key is within the detection area of inside key antenna and when Intelligent Key backside
is contacted to push-button ignition switch, it is equivalent to the operations below.
When starting the engine, the BCM monitors under the engine start conditions,
- Brake pedal operating condition
- Selector lever position
- Vehicle speed
Vehicle speed: less than 4 km/h (2.5 MPH)

To lock/unlock all doors by operating remote controller button of Intelligent Key or door request switch, Intelligent Key must be within
the detection area of outside key antenna. For details, refer to DLK-18, "
INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM : System Description".
To open back door by operating back door opener switch, Intelligent Key must be within the detection area of outside key anten na. For
details, refer to DLK-18, "
INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM : System Description".
DISARMED Phase
The vehicle security system is not set in the DISARM ED phase. The vehicle security system stays in this
phase while any door is open, because it is assumed that the owner is inside or nearby the vehicle. Security
indicator lamp blinks every 2.4 seconds.
When the vehicle security system is reset, each phase switches to the DISARMED phase directly.
PRE-ARMED Phase
The PRE-ARMED phase is the transient state bet ween the DISARMED phase and the ARMED phase. This
phase is maintained for 30 seconds, so that the owner c an reset the setting due to a mis-operation. This phase
switches to the ARMED phase when vehicle conditions are not changed for 30 seconds. Security indicator
lamp illuminates while being in this phase.
To reset the PRE-ARMED phase, refer to the switching condition of No. 10 in the table above.
ARMED Phase
The vehicle security system is set, and BCM monitors all necessary inputs. If any door or hood is opened with-
out using Intelligent Key, vehicle security system switc hes to the ALARM phase. Security indicator lamp blinks
every 2.4 seconds.
To reset the ARMED phase, refer to the switching condition of No. 11 in the table above.
ALARM Phase
BCM transmits “Theft Warning Horn Request” signal and “High Beam Request” signal intermittently to IPDM
E/R via CAN communication. In this phase, horns and headlamps are activated intermittently for approxi-
mately 50 seconds to warn that the vehicle is accessed by unauthorized means. ON/OFF timing of horns and
headlamps are synchronized. After 50 seconds, the vehi cle security system returns to the ARMED phase. At
