BODY CONTROL SYSTEM
BODY CONTROL SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006274789
OUTLINE
BCM (Body Control Module) controls the various electrical components. It inputs the information required to
the control from CAN communication and the signal received from each switch and sensor.
BCM has combination switch reading function for reading the operation status of combination switches (light,
turn signal, wiper and washer) in addition to a function fo r controlling the operation of various electrical com-
ponents. It also has the signal transmission function as the passed point of signal and the power saving con-
trol function that reduces the power c onsumption with the ignition switch OFF.
BCM is equipped with the diagnosis function that perfo rms the diagnosis with CONSULT-III and various set-
tings.

SYSTEM
Low power consumption mode (BCM sleep)- Low power consumption control is active
- CAN transmission is stopped
LOW POWER CONSUMPTION CONTROL WITH BCM
BCM reduces the power consumption with the following operation in the low power consumption mode.
The reading interval of the each switches changes from 10 ms interval to 60 ms interval.
Sleep mode activation
BCM receives the sleep-ready signal (ready) from IPDM E/R, combination meter and automatic back door
control module via CAN communication.
BCM transmits the sleep wake up signal (sleep) to each unit when all of the CAN sleep conditions are ful- filled.
Each unit stops the transmission of CAN communication with the sleep wake up signal. BCM is in CAN com- munication sleep mode.
BCM is in the low power consumption mode and perform the low power consumption control when all of the
BCM sleep conditions are fulfilled with CAN sleep condition.
Sleep condition
Wake-up operation
BCM transmits sleep wake up signal (wake up) to eac h unit when any condition listed below is established,
and then goes into normal mode from low power consumption mode.
Each unit starts transmissions with CAN communication by receiving sleep wake up signals. Each unit trans- mit wake up signals to BCM with CAN communication to convey the start of CAN communication.
