1.2 Current
1) What is a current?
As explained earlier, connecting a negatively charged
object with a positively charged on results in electrons
moving from (-) to (+). In such an instance, it is said that
a "current flows" in the conducting wire. As such,
currents are formed by the movement of free electrons.
The volume of electric charge movement is referred to
as a "current."
However, the direction of current flows is not the same
as the direction of electron flows. As the direction of a
current is defined as the direction of (+) electricity,
current direction is the opposite of electron direction.
2) Action of a Current
Heat Generation
When a current flows through a conductor wire, there is a limit to the current volume the
wire can consistently maintain. If such that limit is exceeded, heat is generated in the wire.
This is due to a flow of more currents than what is allowed. The light bulbs, lighter and
heating wire in vehicles use the heat generated by currents.
Placing copper and zinc in diluted sulfuric acid
causes the ionization of said metals. Here, the
copper will undergo an electron shortage and
become positively charged, while the zinc
undergoes an electron excess to become negatively
charged. Connecting a conducting wire to these two
polarities moves the electrons of the zinc to the
copper, thus creating a current. Car batteries take
advantage of this chemical action.

2) Serial and Parallel Circuit of Resistance
Serial circuit
The size of total resistance in a serial circuit can be
calculated by combining all resistances.
R = R1 + R2 + R3 , according to Ohm's law, the
current is I = V/R = V/(R1 + R2 + R3)
Parallel circuit
In a parallel circuit, where the two ends of two or more
resistances is connected to a single source, the total
size of resistances can be calculated as follows.
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3, according to Ohm's law, the
current is I = V(1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3)

3) Kirchhoff's law
Kirchhoff's law is a theory that wholly reflects the characteristics of a serial circuit and parallel
circuit explained earlier. Kirchhoff's first law addresses currents and the second law voltage.
Kirchhoff's first law
The sum of currents flowing in matches the sum of currents flowing out.
Voltage applied to a parallel circuit by power supply makes a current flow in each resistance.
However, total currents in the circuit gets divided at the parallel junction to flow inversely
proportional to each resistance.
Circuit's total currents I = (1/R1 + 1/R2)V = (1/2 + 1/5)10 = 7A
I1 = V/R1 = 10/2 = 5A, I2 = V/R2 = 10/5 = 2A I = I1 + I2
If 7A flows through the circuit, 5A flows against a resistance of 2 ohm and 2A flows against a
resistance of 5 ohm to make the current total 7A again.
Kirchhoff's second law
The total of voltage drops occurring in a closed circuit equals the electromotive force
(voltage of the power supply device) of the circuit.
Creating a flowing current in an electrical circuit with resistance results in the circuit's voltage
decreasing by the level of voltage at the two ends of the resistance. This is called a voltage
drop.
The voltage of power supplied to a serial circuit is divided proportional to the resistance of each
element and consumed. In short, a voltage drop occurs for each resistance.
Total voltage of a circuit V = IR1 + IR2 + IR3, I = R/V = (R1 + R2 + R3) / V = (2 + 3 + 5)/10 = 1A
V = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10 V = V1 + V2 + V3
A voltage drop of 2V occurs for a resistance of 2 ohm, 3V for a resistance of 3 ohm and 5V for a
resistance of 5 ohm. The sum of all voltage drops equals the total electromotive force of 10V.

1.6 Magnetism
1) What is magnetism?
Magnetism is the force magnets that pulls in materials and forms the basis of actions that take
place between two magnets or between a magnet and current. A magnetic field is always
present where currents flow.
Ampre's law
When a conducting wire with a
flowing current is grabbed with the

direction - the same direction as the
one in which a magnetic field forms
when a conducting wire is gripped.
This is "Ampre's law."
Magnet
A magnet is a magnetic object. Magnets are categorized into permanent magnets and
electromagnets. The rotor coil in a motor, rotor coil in an alternator, and a solenoid coil use an
electromagnet that becomes magnetic temporarily when a current flows through it. Fuel pumps
and wiper motors use both permanent magnets and electromagnets.
What is a magnetic field?
An area in which magnetic force is exerted is called a magnetic field. For example, the area
around a magnet in which metals are pulled in toward the magnet is a magnetic field.

Mechanism of a relay
A relay is an electronic part used for driving and signaling electrical/electronic products, and is
widely used in vehicles also. Flowing a current through an iron core wrapped with a coil makes
the iron core an electromagnet that pulls in a steel plate to close the switch on the steel plate.
This mechanism of a relay is used to open and close circuits.

A direct current is represented as "DC." It is a current that flows in a single direction, i.e. from (+)
to (-). Because the terminals of a battery always maintain the same polarities, currents only flow
in a single direction in an electrical circuit. On the other hand, an alternating current is
represented as "AC." Alternating currents flow in no set direction, i.e. current direction alternates.
The reason for this is constantly changing voltage.
2) Alternating current generation
Magnetism is always present where electricity is. Magnetism is formed by a conducting wire with
a flowing current. Also, electricity can be generated by magnetism. Faraday and Henry made the
discovery that placing a magnet in and out of a coil creates a current flow in the conducting wire.
Inducing voltage in a coil

Induced voltage increases when the number of copper

increases or if the speed at which a magnetic line of
force goes in and out of a coil increases.

4) AC sine wave
Placing conductors within a magnetic field at a right angle and inducing movement creates
electromotive force in conductor A and B as shown in the following diagram, in accordance
with Fleming's right-hand rule. This is called "alternating electromotive force" and its direction
reverses every time the conductor makes a half rotation. When the coil rotates fully,
electromotive force of 1[Hz] is induced.

1.8 Semiconductor
1) What is a semiconductor?
A semiconductor is a substance that is characteristically halfway between a conductor and
nonconductor, and functions as a conductor or nonconductor according to temperature, voltage
and temperature-voltage correlation.
2) Types of semiconductor
Intrinsic semiconductor
A semiconductor covalently bonded with elements (silicone and germanium) that have four
pure electrons Currents cannot flow through an intrinsic semiconductor as the electrons
bonded to its atomic nucleus cannot move.
P-type semiconductor
Mixing a small quantity of an element with three electrons (Al and In) with silicone with four
electrons results in a (+) electron hole with no electrons. Applying voltage in this state
triggers the electron hole to absorb electrons; it appears as if the electron hole is moving. In
this instance, the electron hole (+: positive) is the carrier of electricity; hence the name ptype semiconductor.
N-type semiconductor
Mixing a small quantity of an elementwith five electrons (As and P) with silicone with four
electrons results in a covalent bond with the one extra electron being removed. Applying
voltage in this state turns the excess electron into a free electron, which then creates a
flowing current. In this instance, the electron (-: negative) is the carrier of electricity; hence
the name n-type semiconductor.
<P-type Semiconductor>
<N-type Semiconductor>
3) PN-junction
Non-junction
A device without a junction that only uses the unique features of a p-type or n-type
semiconductor (ex. thermistor)
Single-junction
A device containing a p-type and n-type semiconductor joined at a single junction (ex. diode)
Double-junction
A device containing a p-type and n-type semiconductor joined at a double junction (ex.
transistor)

<Forward bias>
<Reverse bias>
Forward bias
Constant voltage is applied to the anode and negative voltage to the cathode of a diode.
When this happens, electrons are supplied to n-type semiconductors and electron holes to
p-type semiconductors, resulting in a carrier increase. These carriers combine near the
junction. As a result, electrons flow from the cathode to anode (current flows from the anode
to cathode), and the current increases when forward bias voltage increases.
Reverse bias
Negative voltage is applied to the anode and constant voltage to the cathode of a diode. In a
p-type semiconductor, electrons are supplied and combined with p-type electron holes; in an
n-type semiconductor, electron holes are supplied and combined with n-type electrons. As a
results, carriers decrease in numbers and current flow is no longer possible.

4) Transistor
Transistor
A device created from a double junction in the P-N junction of a semiconductor. A n-type
semiconductor is in the center and a PNP-type and NPN-type is at each side. Although
compact, reliable and long-lasting, transistors are critically affected by temperature and
unable to function at high temperatures. A transistor has three terminals: an emitter (E), base
(B) and collector (C).

Electrons holes are moved from the emitter to the base by VBE. Electron holes that enter
the territory of the base become closer to the collector, which has much higher voltage, and
so get pulled into the collector. As such, increasing VBE increases the number of electron
holes pulled into the collector. By increasing the base current (lb) of a PNP transistor with
VBE, increased collector currents (lc) can be obtained.

Electrons are moved from the emitter to the base by VBE. Electrons that enter the territory of
the base become closer to the collector, which has much higher voltage, and so get pulled
into the collector. As such, increasing VBE increases the number of electrons pulled into the
collector. NPN transistor increases VBE to increase currents flowing through the base, which
results in an increase in currents flowing through the collector as well.
24
5) Transistor's function
Switching: Current flow can be enabled from the emitter to the collector or vice versa,
depending on power supply to the base terminal
Amplification: A large signal of a large energy can be generated from a small signal of a
small energy
Switching
The following is a review of the transistor characteristics explained earlier. By adjusting VBE
and creating a current flow in the base, the emitter and collector become conducted.
Consequently, a current flowing from the emitter to the collector (PNP transistor) or from the
collector to the emitter (NPN transistor) can be generated.
The following is a description of the
switching function of the transistor used in

emitter and the relay becomes magnetized,
switching the switch off and operating the
lamp. The current flowing from the collector
to the emitter can be controlled by
controlling the base current in this manner.
Amplification
NPN transistor's amplification is provided as an example below. Applying forward voltage
VBE to the base and emitter terminal moves the electrons from the emitter to the base,
creating a current flowing from the base to the emitter. If VCE is applied at the same time, a
current flowing from the collector to the emitter forms and, as a result, the current flowing in
the emitter becomes the sum of the currents flowing in the base and collector. As can be
seen, a transistor is capable of obtaining large output signals from the emitter using only
small base input signals.
The term "amplification" does not signify an unconditional enlargement of small signals.
Amplification can be defined as the generation of a large signal that shares the form of a small
signal at the output (emitter) when a small signal is used for control (base current) in a small
energy source.

1.10 Sensor
1) What is a sensor?
The function of a sensor is similar to the five senses of humans (sight, hearing, touch, smell
and taste). As humans collect information through the five senses, the ECU uses a sensor
to assess the surroundings and control various movements. A vehicle's sensors include a
temperature sensor, pressure sensor, optical sensor, RPM sensor and oxygen sensor.
2) Temperature sensor
As a human must maintain the normal temperature range of 36-37 to stay healthy, the
engine of a vehicle needs to maintain a temperature of approximately 90 for normal
functioning. A temperature sensor provides information for the engine to maintain normal
temperature, and also allows the adjustment of fuel injection volumes according to engine
and air temperature. It can be used for purposes other than engine control. Temperature
sensors are an essential component of the FATC in convenience/safety systems and
temperature-sensitive systems, such as ventilated seats. Temperatures sensors come in a
non-contact-type and contact-type. Contact-type ones are widely in use. Contact-type
temperature sensors include platinum resistance temperature sensors, thermistors, thermo
electric devices and IC temperature sensors. Thermistors are predominantly used in
vehicles.
Application: Coolant temperature sensor, intake temperature sensor, exhaust gas
temperature sensor, interior/exterior air & evaporator sensor for air-conditioners
Thermistor
A metallic oxide that has been heated and solidified. Resistance changes according to
temperature. Based on their characteristic of changing resistance according to temperature,
thermistors can be categorized into two types.
NTC-type: Acronym for "Negative Temperature Coefficient." Resistance rises if
temperature drops; resistance drops if temperature rises.
PTC-type: Acronym for "Positive Temperature Coefficient." Resistance rises if temperature
rises; resistance drops if temperature drops.
NTC-type thermistors are widely used in vehicles. The reason is because the NTC-type can
measure a wider range of temperature than the PTC-type, and also produces more uniform
resistance changes according to temperature changes.
Temperature detection by the ECU
There is pull-up resistance inside the circuit of the ECU.
Voltage of 5V is supplied and flows into the ground via the
thermistor.
Temperature increase (NTC resistance decrease): If NTC
resistance becomes lower than pull-up resistance, the
voltage drop that takes place through pull-up resistance
becomes larger than the one that takes place through
NTC resistance. As a result, the ECU detects the lower
voltage.
Temperature decrease (NTC resistance increase): If NTC
resistance becomes higher than pull-up resistance, a
larger voltage drop takes place through NTC resistance.
As a result, the ECUmonitors the higher voltage.

3) Pressure sensor
A pressure sensor is used for fuel pressure detection, atmospheric pressure detection, airconditioner refrigerant pressure detection and oil/tire pressure detection by various systems
of a vehicle, including the engine. The majority of pressure sensors in vehicles use the Piezo
effect.
Application: Atmospheric pressure sensor, ABS oil pressure sensor, air-conditioner
pressure sensor, manifold pressure sensor, etc.
Piezo effect
The property of electricity generation on the surface of a crystal (tourmaline) from pressure
application in a set direction. Forms the basis of pressure gauge mechanism for the
detection of sudden pressure changes, such as explosions. Sensors that use the piezo
effect can function in a wide range of temperatures. They are widely in use for their fast
response. Other meritorious features of piezo sensors include stability, simple production
and affordability.
Piezo Electric
The property of voltage generation from pressurization and vibration from voltage application
Ultrasonic sensor
Applying certain voltage to the piezoelectric
element inside an ultrasonic sensor generates
vibration, and applying certain frequency
generates ultrasonic waves. If the ultrasonic
waves gets reflected by an object and returns,
pressure is applied to the piezoelectric element
again for voltage generation. In vehicles,
piezoelectric elements are used in rear parking
assist systems

from sunlight for automatic interior temperature control. Photo sensors use semiconductor
devices, including photo diodes, photo transistors, optical ICs and cadmium sulfide. In
general, photo transistors are used in vehicles.
Application: Autolight sensor, sunlight sensor, etc.

A hall element does not react to magnetic bodies placed far away, producing no voltage at its
output terminal, but produces voltage when a magnetic body is placed in its vicinity. When a
hall sensor uses a hall element to rotate a shaft with a single protrusion, voltage is generated
as the protrusion nears the hall sensor; this serves as verification of a single rotation by the
shaft. The protrusion on the shaft is fixed, which means that shaft position can also be
known.

Circuit
A vehicle is a machine designed to function according to a large number of computers' control.
The computer parts that make up a vehicle - the units - do not function individually, but in
conjunction with one or more of other units. Different units can function together organically
due to the electrical flow between them. A circuit diagram shows such organic relationships and
electrical flows in signs and figures. By reading and analyzing a circuit diagram, one can
understand system operation and also identify areas of trouble.
The above circuit diagram is a common vehicle electronic circuit diagram. The circuit is made
up of a parent control module, various components (sensor, switch, fuse, etc.), wires and
connectors. The components of a circuit diagram are explained below.

Time
When the user turns on the rear fog lamp switch, pull-up voltage sent by the BCM falls
to 0V. The BCM detects the switch operation using the pull-up method.
Constant power passes through the rear fog relay and stands by at the rear fog relay
control terminal of the BCM. Once the BCM detects a switch operation, it activates the
internal transistor to supply the power standing by at the relay to the ground.
The relay coil becomes magnetized and pulls the relay switch, making the relay full
operational.
As the relay functions, the constant power standing by at the relay terminal passes
through rear fog lamp RH and LH to the ground; lamps light up as a result.

Communication
3.1 Outline of Communication
1) What is communication?
Communication began with the birth of mankind. Communication between individuals and
societies is indispensable in the formation and maintenance of a human society. A nearby
subject can be communicated to using gestures and language; however, subjects with a
considerable distance between them are unable to do so, and require a messenger or other
means, such as light, smoke or sound, for communication.
As such, communication can be defined as the delivery of information. In the everyday life, it is
common to come across the term "communication" and various tools are used for
communication. Such tools include telephones, mobile phones and computers (internet).
Extensive communication also takes place in a vehicle. Electronic communication in a vehicle
refers to the sharing of data by modules through electronic features.
2) Why communication is used
With the development of automotive technology, consumer consciousness of performance and
safety is increasing. They have come to demand vehicles with increased power, safety and
comfort. To meet such a demand, modern vehicles are equipped with a variety of ECUs and
convenience devices,
which require additional wiring and components. An inevitable
consequence is more frequent troubles. Installation of extra electronic parts require additional
wiring, and this increases the changes of a breakdown occurring. To minimize this issue,
communication takes place with each ECU for data sharing.
)What are the advantages of communication in a vehicle?
) Lighter wiring: Communication between ECUs responsible for control reduces wiring.
) Easier installation of electronic devices: Electronic components are controlled by the
nearest ECU.
Ex) Switch signals from the IMS system are received by the DDM, but seat position control is done by
the SCM located near seats. Such communication, which enables data sharing, allows an ECU to be
installed near electronic components that require control.
) Increased system reliability: Reduced wiring reduces the number of connectors and
contacts, which reduces trouble rate and enables accurate data sharing.
) Maintenance using diagnostic equipment: Diagnostic equipment can be used to check
ECU self-check results and sensor output for improved maintenance efficiency.

communication)
Asynchronous communication (CAN communication) in vehicles require two lines (CAN-HI and
CAN-LOW) for preventing system failures from communication line disconnections or short
circuits. Even if one of the lines fails, the other line allows normal communication to take place.
<Synchronous communication>
SCK
Synchronous communication transmits characters and bits without a start/stop code. A SCK
(clock circuit) must be installed to allow the the time of data sending and receiving between
ECUs to be estimated accurately. If not installed, clock data must be included in data signals.
(EX: Three-line synchronous communication)
In three-line synchronous communication, the most important signals are transmitted through
the SCK line. If this line experiences trouble, the system does not operate even if data is
output. Trouble in the TX or RX line only disables the functions they are responsible for.

High-speed CAN
Vertical resistor is placed at each of the two ends of the two signal lines. Vertical resistors on
signal lines must match the impedance of signal lines. In accordance with ISO11898, vertical
resistors of 120 ohm are used. If multiple ECUs exist on a signal line, a vertical resistor only
needs to be connected to the ECU at each of the two ends of the signal line.
Low Speed CAN
A vertical resistor is required for every signal line of each of the ECUs connected to a network.
Low-speed CAN requires a vertical resistor, not on the signal lines, but the transceiver of each
ECU. The impedance of each vertical resistor is calculated using a set of formulas.
42
It is generally understood that the digital "1" is a recessive bit and the digital "0" is a dominant
bit. In high-speed CAN, "1" is 2.5V, and "0" is 3.5V for CAN_H and 1.5V for CAN_L. In lowspeed CAN, "1" is 4.8V for CAN_H and 0.2V for CAN_L. The values of "0" are identical to those
used in high-speed CAN.
3) LIN Communication System
"LIN" stands for "Local Interconnect Network." LIN communication is low-cost serial
communication that can be applied to vehicles for a dispersed electronic system. LIN
communication is allows more cost reduction than CAN communication. A LIN network is made
up of one master and one or more slaves. LIN is asynchronous serial communication that does
not send differential signals. Waveforms are generated by ECU voltage and ground voltage
levels.

ID transmission: The master module sends data to certain slave modules, requesting data.
Response: Slave modules that match the ID sent by the master module send the required
data to the master module.

System Introduction
1.1 System History
Body electrical systems were developed for the speedy control of modules required for the
application of various convenience functions in vehicles. The Body Electrical System is the
system that provides integrated control for various convenient features of a vehicle. It supports
controls for the wiper system, lamp system, central door lock/unlock system, and theft alarm
system. The history of body electrical systems is summarized below.
1) ETACS
ETACS is the acronym for Electronic Time Alarm Control System. Its controls the timer
(heating wire timer and power window timer), alarm (seat belt alarm, door open alarm, etc.),
lamps and door lock. Vehicles with an ETACS receive all switch data related to body electrical
system control through the ETACS. Relay, actuator and motor control was also performed by
the ETACS. Communication with diagnostic equipment is not possible as no communication IC
is installed. ETACS is not used in modern vehicles.
2) BCM
BCM is the acronym for Body Control Module. It is the successor to the ETACS. Its difference
from the ETACS is that communication with diagnostic equipment is possible. Although
individual vehicles models vary, the control of a BCM is similar to that of an ETACS. Diagnostic
equipment communication allows the viewing of current data on input/output elements, and
actuation tests can be carried out.
3) BCM + SJB
As BCMs started to use CAN communication and more functions became required of them,
the SJB (Smart Junction Box) was applied to BCMs. Like BCMs, SJBs receive switch data and
drive actuators. A SJB is connected to a BCM via CAN communication to receive BCM
commands and drive actuators. The BCM + SJB combination is the most common body
electrical system used today.
4) IPM
IPM is the acronym for Intelligent Integrated Platform Module, which combines all the functions
of a BCM and SJB. Switch signals are received from modules related to control functions for
actuator output. IPMs are mainly found in luxury vehicles.

1) Input
Switch input shows that voltage of 5V is sent to the switch from the body electrical system. If
the switch operates, the pull-up voltage of 5V falls to 0V. The BCM detects this voltage drop
and recognizes the switch operation. This is called the pull-up method. As explained in Basic
Electrics and Electronics, there is also the pull-down method, which immediately inputs 12V
upon switch operation, in addition to the pull-up method.
2) Output
Upon switch input detection, the body electrical system must drive the relays to switch on the
lamps. The body electrical system sends output currents to the transistor to drive the transistor
that controls the relays. When the transistor switches on, the relays become magnetized and
lamps operate. If output is executed by a module other than the one that detected the switch
signal, the "switch on" signal is sent to the module responsible for output through the
communication line.
The system's input/output components increased significantly as a vehicle's control features
increased. The trend in recent models is the change from the ground output control using
transistor to power output control using the IPS to actively respond to potential problems
created at the output terminal.
In short, a body electrical system controls output when input conditions are met. The pull-up
method and pull-down method are mainly used for input monitoring. Output control takes place
through transistor-based relay ground control or IPS-based control.
59
1.3 IPS
IPS stands for Intelligent Power Switching device, which is an output device that can replace a
relay and fuse. IPS uses a semiconductor device and is being widely applied to body electrical
system output control. In addition to output control, IPS can detect and manage a circuit
disconnection, short circuit or overload. Other features include a self-check function, compact
size and multi-channel control.
Currently, IPS is being widely used for smart
Relay
fuse
IPS
IPS is mainly used for the control of vehicle lamp (head lamps, indicators, tail lamps and fog
lamps) output. The key functions of IPS are as follows.
<Refer to: ARISU LT>
1) Wiring protection
PCL (Programmable Circuit Limit) function
Fuse is removed on IPS applied circuit. IPS directly detects the current flowing through the
circuit and, if over current is detected, the IPS cuts off power to the corresponding circuit.

Short circuit
Overcurrent flow
In the case where a fuse was used, it got disconnected from an overcurrent when a short
circuit occurred in the lamp circuit.
The following is the application of an IPS. Circuit currents are constantly monitored by the IPS.
When an overcurrent is detected, data is sent to the controller of the SJB. The SJB
immediately stops IPS operation to prevent circuit damage.
OCL (Open Circuit Limit) function
Different than the PCL, the OCL detects disconnection and notifies the driver if the circuit is
disconnected. OCL is applied to indicators and hazard lamps to speed up their blinking in the
event of a lamp disconnection.
Category
Description
Application Range
The OCL is applied only to the turn signal lamp and hazard lamp, and
detects the circuit disconnection (bulb out of socket) and controls the
remaining bulbs to make them blink faster.
Current detection
Detects disconnection when the current flowing in the turn signal lamp
circuit is below 1 A and records the occurrence for diagnosis.
Deactivation
Conditions
When the shut off switch returns to On, after the lamp switch where
disconnection was detected has been turned Off.
When the switch returns to On after IGN Off and normal current is
detected.
If the lamp circuit gets disconnected while IPS is monitoring circuit currents, current detection
will indicate 0. As well, circuit disconnection data is sent to the SJB controller. The SJB then
blinks all the lamps except the disconnected one quickly to notify the user of the lamp failure.

W
WIperINT and MIST functions are controlled by the BCM. When the switch is operated, the
BCM receives switch signals and operates the transistor that controls the wiper relay. When
the wiper relay becomes magnetized, IGN power is supplied to the motor after passing
through the internal contact of the multi-function switch.
The windscreen washer function is also controlled by the BCM. Positioning the switch to
"washer" immediately activates the washer motor and the wipers are controlled at LOW speed
by the BCM.
Regardless of the wipers' current position, when the wiper switch is set to "off," the wipers
return to their original position. This function is in place to prevent the wipers from stopping in
the middle of movement when the switch is set to "off." When the wipers are operating, the
parking switch inside the wiper motor is always mechanically connected to IG power. This
keeps supplying power to the wiper motor even when the switch is set to "off." When the
wipers return to their original position, the parking switch connects to the ground mechanically
and cuts off power to the motor.

LOW and HIGH switch signals for the tail lamps and head lamps are detected by the BCM.
The BCM give IPS output commands to the SJB through B-CAN communication. Then, the
SJB produces tail/head lamp output through the IPS. The SJB sends an output completion
signal to the BCM to determine system soundness. At the same time, data is sent to the
cluster through CAN communication to light up the indicators.
If an auto light function is present, auto light switch signals are also detected by the BCM. If
the light level sensor reading sent to the BCM indicates that lamps need switching on, the
BCM sends an IPS output command to the SJB to switch on the lamps.
2) Indicators & Hazard Lamp Control

Indicator and hazard lamp control through switch operation is processed by the SJB alone.
Indicator and hazard lamp switch signals are input directly in the SJB. The SJB activates
lamps by operating the indicator sound relay and IPS. At the same time, data is sent to the
cluster through the CAN line to light up the indicators. The indicators can be switched on when
the ignition is both on or off.
Hazard lamp blinking by the RKE is collectively triggered by the BCM and SJB. When the
BCM receives RKE remote control data, a hazard lamp activation command is given to the
SJB through CAN communication.

tail lamp switch data to the BCM. The BCM sends a "tail lamp off" signal to the SJB and the
SJB turns off the tail lamps.

The head lamp escort function is only enabled when the escort function is switched on in the
USM. With the head lamp escort function, turning off the ignition while the head lamps are on
keeps them on for about 20 minutes (can vary by vehicle model) before switching off.
Head lamp "on" signals are detected by the BCM. Switching off the ignition makes the BCM
give the "head lamps off" command to the SJB after 20 minutes.
Closing all doors after switching off the ignition sends a door switch signal to the SJB. If the
remote control lock or passive lock switch is pressed, the BCM detects the signal and
activates the anti-theft mode. When this happens, a "head lamps off" command is given to the
SJB after 30 seconds.
Pressing the remote control lock button twice while in anti-theft mode sends a signal to the
BCM, which immediately sends a "head lamps off" command to the SJB.

BCM through CAN communication. If the door lock/unlock requirements are met, the BCM
sends a "lock/unlock" command to the SJB. After receiving the BCM's command, the SJB
activates the IPS to control the door lock relay.
RKE door lock/unlock signals are received by the BCM. The BCM sends a door lock/unlock
command to the SJB, and the SJB activates the IPS.

When the heating wire switch in the FATC is enabled, the BCM detects the switch signal. If the
heating wire activation requirements are met, the BCM give an "activate heating wire relay"
command to the SJB. The SJB activates the relay to supply power to the heating wire. 20
minutes after heating wire operation, an "output off" command is sent to the SJB to switch off
the heating wire. The SJB deactivates the relay to cut off heating wire output.

All doors must be closed and locked and the trunk and hood closed for the anti-theft alarm to

A door switch signal, hood switch signal and trunk switch signal are sent to the SJB, which
passes the signals on to the BCM through CAN communication. If the BCM receives a remote
control lock signal or passive lock signal in this state, an "all-door-lock" command is sent to the
SJB (refer to the Door Lock Control section).
After all doors are locked the BCM sends a hazard lamp output command to the smart junction
box and, at the same time, activates the security lamps.
After entering the anti-theft mode, the burglar alarm activates and ignition is disabled if any of
the doors, hood and trunk is opened.

3. Service Procedure
1) Key Current Data
The GDS supports current data required by the BCM and SJB. Selecting the initial BCM item
allows the selection of BCM or SJB for current data viewing. The current data of the BCM and
SJB displays the switch signals and output signals received by each module.
Correct switch input and module output signals for a particular function can be verified by
viewing the current data.
69
2) Actuation Test
The BCM and SJB can perform an actuation test on the relays they each control. Each relay
can be activated through the activation test and output can be verified as normal.
3) User Option
In User Options, some convenience functions controlled by the BCM and SJB can be turn on
or off to suit the user. This function is similar to that of USM on the cluster. The convenience
functions that can be enabled/disabled include Auto Door Lock, Auto Door Unlock, Welcome
Light and Headlamp Escort.
70
4) Transmitter Register
For remote keyless entry, transmitter code saving is required after a key or BCM replacement.
This procedure enters key data in the BCM, and is not the same as a key registration in the
immobilizer system. (For smart key systems, only a smart key registration is required.)

Immobilizer System
1.1 System Introduction
1) What is an Immobilizer System ?
An immobilizer system is an anti-theft system that allows engine start-up through mechanical
and electronic key verification. An ignition key used in conjunction with an immobilizer system
has an IC chip, commonly known as a transponder. Key verification takes place when the
encrypted data on the transponder matches the data registered in the immobilizer ECU or
EMS.
Immobilizer System has full security protection against vehicle theft by using a copied key. The
system has been applied first in Grandeur XG 3.0, and has been installed in phase in the
vehicles since then.
2) History
There are two versions of immobilizer system. Each has evolved to take on a slightly different
logic for different vehicle models. The manufacturers are Shinchang and Bosch. Shinchang
immobilizers have evolved from the Shinchang-type to the STF-type, while Bosch immobilizers
evolved from the Smartra-type to the Smartra 3-type.
England's automobile insurance regulation (THATCHAM) specifies that a vehicle must deter
theft for at least 5 minutes, and Canada adapted the same regulation since September, 2007.
However, the early versions Shinchang-type and Smartra-type only performed key verification
between the engine ECU and transponder. Because the immobilizer ECU only provided
communication relay without engaging in the key verification process, the early versions had
the downside of allowing a vehicle to be stolen in under 5 minutes just by replacing the EMS
and transponder.

For example, if the EMS of Vehicle A and Vehicle B in the above diagram share the same
specifications, remove Vehicle A's engine ECU and install it in Vehicle B. Next, with the key for
Vehicle A in possession, start the engine with a replica of the key for Vehicle B. This equates to
starting Vehicle B with Vehicle A's EMS and key, making stealing of Vehicle B possible.
The new immobilizer systems STF-type and SMARTRA 3-type were developed to add an
encryption function to the engine ECU, transponder and immobilizer ECU to meet the legal
requirements and provide an improved anti-theft function.
The STF-type and SMARTRA 3-type are identical systems with different names and a minor
difference in the verification process.

Both types of above immobilizers not only checks the Transponder ID but also performs two

and key authentication processes. The immobilizer ECU is referred to as the "Smartra unit" in
the SMARTRA 3-type and as the ICU (Immobilizer Control Unit) in the STF-type.
ID verification process
Key verification requests are sent and received key data is verified by the engine EMS in the
SMARTRA 3 and by the ICU in the STF.

74
The immobilizer system controls ignition through the synchronization of the key with a built-in
transponder, antenna coil, immobilizer ECU and engine EMS. The immobilizer ECU is referred
to as the "Smartra unit" in the SMARTRA 3-type and as the ICU (Immobilizer Control Unit) in
the STF-type.
One difference is the controller of the immobilizer lamp in the cluster. In the SMARTRA 3, the
engine EMS controls the immobilizer lamp, while the ICU controls the immobilizer lamp in the
STF system. The immobilizer lamp switches on and off when ignition take place normally.

When ignition is turned on, the SMARTRA unit supplies power to the antenna coil. Once
magnetized, the antenna coil forms a magnetic field with the coil inside the transponder to
enable wireless communication. A condenser is located in the transponder's internal circuit,
making power charging possible
The engine EMS generates Random Number 1 and sends it along with a transponder ID
request. Random Number 1 is encrypted by the SMARTRA unit. The transponder ID and
encrypted Random Number 1 are sent back to the engine EMS. The engine EMS
compares its data with the data received from the transponder and SMARTRA unit for
consistency.
Upon completion of the primary verification, the engine EMS generates Random Number
2. This data is sent to the transponder. The transponder encrypts Random Number 2. The
encrypted Random Number 2 is returned to the engine EMS, which compares it to its own
data for consistency. Once verified, ignition takes place.

LIMPHOME mode
Engine cannot be started normally with the key in case of invalid communication data due to
transponder failure or in case of Immobilizer System failure. In such a case, the feature that
allows the engine to start by using emergency password is called the Limp Home feature.
Limp Home allows the engine to start if 4 digit password is entered via diagnosis device, and
the password matches the information in the EMS. Limp Home engine start by using diagnosis
device can be performed up to 255 times.

The limp home mode can be activated by the user without the use of diagnostic equipment. If
the number of KEY Switch IG ON-OFF matches the registered password, limp home ignition
can be performed.
Input: After the key switch has been on for more than five seconds, switch it ON (T3: 0.2-5
sec) then OFF (T2 : 0.2-3 sec). The number of key switch ONs during this period is set as
the password. If the password is 0, the number of key switch ONs is 10.

Neutral mode is used to initialize the key data and password saved in the engine ECU and
immobilizer ECU.

Cluster
2.1 System Introduction
1) What is the Cluster?
The cluster is a display device that provides the driver with a visual summary of a vehicle's
electronic system operation, driving information, controls and areas of trouble. In the past, the
cluster merely performed the function of an instrument that displayed warnings and
instructions. However, late-model vehicles have a MICOM and small LCD on the cluster for the
display of various driving information. In addition, graphics are used to support warnings and
system controls, and display comprehensive information about air-conditioning, multimedia
and GPS.
2) Cluster Types
<Conventional Type>
<Supervision Type>
3) Cluster Functions
Driving information
The most basic function. Vehicle speed and RPM are displayed on gauges. Warning lamps
are switched on or blinked in the even of convenience/driving/safety system failures. A trip
computer is used in late-model vehicles to provide information on the distance that can be
covered and average fuel efficiency.
Gateway
Various data is shared between the powertrain module and body electrical/multimedia system
module. If the powertrain module sends data to the C-CAN line, the cluster converts the data
into B-CAN data and forwards it to the modules that require it. This is only possible if the
cluster has both a B-CAN and C-CAN IC. Vehicle models may also vary.
User Setting Mode
In late-model vehicles, the cluster allows the user to adjust the operation of certain
convenience functions. For example, functions such as speed-sensitive central door lock,
headlamp escort and welcome light can be enabled or disabled in the user setting mode
through the cluster.

C-CAN Information
Fuel Gauge
The cluster controls gauges and warning lamps with information received in C-CAN
messages, B-CAN messages and wire-to-wire. As shown in the diagram above, powertrain
(engine/transmission) and chassis system alarms (display) are entered in the cluster through
C-CAN, while body electrical system alarms (display) are entered through B-CAN and
displayed by the cluster. There are also warnings (display) and gauges the cluster controls
with signals received through direct wiring. These include the oil pressure warning lamp, low
fuel warning lamp, fuel gauge and recharge warning lamp.
Although not shown in the diagram, the cluster also has a built-in trip computer. The trip
computer calculates vehicle speed, fuel level, learnt fuel efficiency, engine RPM, fuel injection
volume and travel time in place of control functions. Such information is used to provide the
user with useful driving information such as accumulated traveled distance, distance that can
be traveled at current fuel level, average fuel efficiency, instant fuel efficiency, average speed
and travel time.

4) Miscellaneous
Speed signal output
The cluster requires speed signals, but outputs speed signals to modules that must receive
speed signals directly due to a lack of a CAN communication IC, e.g. head lamp leveling
device, sunroof module, etc. The cluster provides speed signals in a digital pulse signal format
that can be read by electrical system modules without a CAN communication IC.

To read the cluster's sensor data for the GDS, select the body control module system and
select "Cluster" on the sub menu. The cluster's sensor data shows key cluster inputs and
indicators. To view the state of other warning lamps, access the sensor data of the module
responsible for the warning lamps.
2) Actuation Test
Some vehicle models perform a forced drive for input elements of the cluster. When a forced
drive takes place, an indicator on the cluster lighting up indicates a normal state.

3) Variant Coding
Variant coding is a technique that involves developing and supplying cluster parts of minimal
types/specs to be installed on vehicles and further refined for specific vehicle models by using
the coding equipment used by the production or A/S team.

At the repair shop, GDS diagnostic equipment can be used to perform variant coding. The
process is as follows.
1. Check vehicle specifications and replace with a cluster of the same product number.
2. When the ignition is turned on after the replacement, the cluster performs a self-check of
vehicle options and specifications.
3. The technician connects to the GSW server and enters the verified cluster coding code in
the GDS. Cluster coding code can be checked by entering a VIN on the GSW server.
4. Input is processed normally if the specifications self-checked by the cluster match the
variant coding specifications entered as a coding code. A DTC is generated otherwise.
The option items recorded through variant coding include SCC, ESC, PSB, AFLS, TPMS,
LDWS, EPB, MDPS and ECS, although variation can exist between vehicle models.

Radiation
heat is radiated from any hot substance in the form of heat waves. These waves are a form of
energy, and they will increase the temperature of any object with which they come in contact.
The sun is the major source of heat for the earth. Its heat waves are transmitted through
space and they heat up the earth as they come in contact with it. Direct sunlight is a good
example of heat by radiation. Color has an important part to play in heat radiation. A dark
colored vehicle will get hotter than a light colored vehicle. This is because lighter colors reflect
more heat (light) waves, while darker colors absorb more heat (light) waves. To put radiation
heat in the perspective of an air conditioning system, note that the condenser, which bears the
high temperature refrigerant, will conduct and radiate heat to the cooler outside air.
Convection
heat is also conveyed (carried) from one point to another by the movement of a heated
substance. This heat movement is called convection. When we turn on a hot water faucet, we
get hot water, although the water heater is some distance away. This is because the moving
water carries the heat from the water heater to the faucet.
4) States of aggregation
A further effect by heat exchange is, that the molecules
may change their state instead of their temperature. At a
certain point (boiling point, solidification point), e.g. water
is transformed into steam or into ice. There are three
processes
Solid
which
describe
change
of
state:
Gaseous
Condensation is the term used to describe the reverse of the evaporation process. If you take
a vapor and remove enough heat from it, a change of state will occur which causes the vapor
to become liquid.
Freezing results when heat is continually removed from a liquid substance until it becomes
solid. Remember that everything above 273C contains some amount of heat. In an air
conditioning system, freezing is a hazard to be avoided.
5) Refrigerant
Before learning about the function of an air-conditioning system, knowledge of refrigerant is
required. The primary function of air-conditioners is cooling, which refers to artificially reducing
heat in a solid, liquid or gaseous object or space to achieve and maintain a temperature lower
than the ambient temperature. The medium used for cooling is refrigerant.
R12 (Chloro Fluoro Carbon, CFC-12)
As many of you know in the past the refrigerant which was used in cars
was the so called R12. The reason to use it was the physical and chemical
properties, such as the boiling point of 28.9 degree Celsius. But it turned
out that there were environmental problems such as ozone layer
destruction. R12 is chemically stable in the normal atmosphere and has no
harmful effect on the human body, but rising to the stratosphere and being
exposed to strong UV rays causes it to disintegrate and emit chlorine. R12
was replaced by a new refrigerant called R134a as chlorine destroys the
ozone layer.
R134a (Hydro Fluoro Carbon, HFC-134a)
Specified refrigerants, chemically stable substances which are superior for
heat resistance and non combustibility, have the characteristics of being
colorless and odorless without being inflammable, corrosive or toxic. For
these reasons, they came to be used for a wide range of purposes such
as refrigerants for air conditioners and refrigeration units, aerosol spray
agents, cleaning agents for electronic systems, fire extinguisher materials,
foam agents, and raw material for synthetic resins.
On the contrary, the most important characteristic of an alternative Freon(R12) is that the
Ozone depletion potential is small, and it is indispensable minimum condition is that it can be
used safely in each area. Although HFC does not affect the ozone layer, it is a greenhouse
gas that affects the atmosphere. Its use in vehicles was banned in 2011
.

6) Refrigerant Cycle
The moving path of refrigerant will be explained based on what has been learned so far.
Refrigerant has the important function of cooling interior air by passing through a compressor,

Air heating function
Other functions: Cluster ionizer (air cleaning), Auto Defogging (dehumidifier), etc.
Cooling cycle configuration
Ventilation configuration
Compressor
Blower Assembly
HVAC Assembly
HVAC: Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning
An air-conditioning system uses the above devices for heating and cooling. As mentioned in
the explanation of the refrigerant cycling path, cooling involves an engine-driven compressor
compressing and circulating refrigerant, which passes through the condenser and receiver
dryer to engage in heat exchange in the evaporator inside the HVAC. Heating is a simpler
process. Heated engine coolant is directly sent to the heater core inside the HVAC and heating
takes place through the heater core's heat emission.
Other functions include cluster ionization, which discharges ions in the air out of the vehicle for
a more pleasant interior environment, and auto defogging, which automatically removes
humidity from the windscreen.
8) Vehicle Air Conditioning System Types
Vehicle air-conditioning systems come in two types: manual or automatic. A manual airconditioning system requires the user to set the direction, intensity and temperature of
released air. An automatic air-conditioning system can also be user-controlled, but the user
can just set a desired temperature and air direction, intensity and temperature are
subsequently adjusted automatically. The module that controls an automatic air-conditioner is
called FATC (Full Automatic Temperature Control). Late-model vehicles come with DATC (Dual
Automatic Temperature Control), which allows the driver and front passenger separate
controls.

The two main compressor types are fixed swash plate and variable swash plate. The former is
obsolete. A variable swash plate compressor come in two types: one which adjusts the swash
plate angle through MCV and another which does the same through ECV. In recent times, the
ECV-type, which receives electrical signals from FATC for compressor control, has been in
wide use. A fixed swash plate compressor requires a magnetic clutch, but some variable
swash plate compressors are clutchless - this type is commonly applied to luxury vehicles, the
drivers of which are not overly concerned with fuel efficiency.

With the VS-type, swash plate angle is mechanically controlled inside the compressor
according to compressor suction pressure change detected by the control valve. With the
VSX-type, a solenoid valve is installed as a control valve and controls the swash plate angle
according to the FATC's electrical signals.
The VS-type's configuration maintains a set swash plate angle even when discharge level is
reduced to a minimum. This requires a magnetic clutch for on/off control. However, the VSXtype electrically controls the swash plate angle through ECV control. Turning off the ECV sets
the swash plate angle to 0 degree, which brings compressor operation to a stop. This
eliminates the need for a magnetic clutch as it is not required for switching the compressor on
and off.

Compressor control by the engine ECU varies by type: clutchless type or clutch type With
the clutch type, the engine ECU sends a "compressor cut off" signal to the FATC module.
If the A/C cutoff signal from the ECU is received, the FATC Module immediately turns OFF
the ECV duty output. With the clutchless type, the engine ECU cuts off the A/C relay
immediately and the FATC turns off ECV output upon receiving a signal.
Compressor on/off by FATC ECU
Event if the A/C switch is set to off, the FATC module turns on the compressor by force in the
following conditions.
1. Maximum cooling control when temperature is set at 17C
2. Auto defogging when high humidity is detected (if a humidity sensor is installed)
3. Frost removed when air direction is set to DEF mode or Mix mode
4. When the evaporator sensor detects a temperature of 4C or higher after being turned off
by the evaporator sensor
104
Even if the A/C switch is set to off, the FATC module turns on the compressor by force in the
following conditions.
1. Maximum heating control when temperature is set at 32C
2. Evaporator core freezing prevented when the evaporator sensor detects a temperature of
0C or lower
3. System protected from damage when the APT sensor detects a high refrigerant pressure
(APT sensor output of 4.8V or higher)
4. External temperature of -3C or lower

Inflating device
Propellant
(Sodium azide)
Filter
Igniter
Airbag
Nitrogen Gas
An airbag system contains an ACU (Airbag Control Module), which sends a current to the
airbag to activate the inflating device when an impact is detected. When ignition takes place,
nitrogen gas is generated and sucked into the airbag instantly, causing the airbag to inflate like
a balloon. Approximately 60L of nitrogen gas fills an airbag. This saves the driver or passenger
from the initial impact of a collision to prevent fatal injuries.
Sodium azide, consisting of sodium and nitrogen, is the substance used to instantly inflate an
airbag. This substance does not combust even at a temperature of 350. Sodium azide can
be safely stored in a vehicle as its chemical stability prevents it from exploding even in a
collision. When sodium azide does explode, it generates nitrogen that fills the airbag.
When the ACU sends a current to activate the igniter, high heat is generated in an instance,
creating sparks. As the sodium azide capsule explodes, nitrogen gas fills the airbag. Sodium
reacts to iron oxide to generate safe sodium oxide.
111
3) Airbag Types
Depowered System
The depowered system was developed in light of airbags inflicting a secondary impact on
children or passengers of a small stature, causing serious injuries or even death. Airbag
inflation is reduced by 20 to 30%. The depowered system is prevalent in Europe.
Smart Airbag System
A sensor detects the driver position, seatbelt use and impact severity to control the power with
which the airbag is deployed (more power for serious impacts and less power for lighter
impacts). The smart airbag system is mainly applied to luxury vehicles.
Advanced Airbag System
A sensor detects the driver location/stature/position and impact severity to determine whether
airbag deployment is necessary. In short, a weight sensor is added to the smart airbag
system. Airbag deployment is divided into two levels (dual stage) for optimum safety at
different impact severities. This system is a legal requirement in North America.

3) Sensors
Front Impact Sensor (FIS)
An impact (acceleration) sensor is installed at each side of the front bumper. The left-side of
the LHD is responsible for driver-side airbag deployment and the right-side for front
passenger-side airbag deployment (RHD is the opposite). When a frontal collision is detected,
a signal is sent to the ACU, which controls DAB and PAB deployment along with the internal
collision/acceleration sensor and safing sensor.
Side Impact Sensor (SIS)
There are two types of side collision sensor. One of them is an acceleration sensor, similar to
the sensors mentioned above, and the other is a pressure sensor, which detects a collision
from pressure. The side collision sensor detects the level of impact in the event of a side
collision and sends a signal to the ACU. The ACU receives the signal and deploys the airbag
and curtain airbag together with the collision/acceleration sensor and safing sensor.

The switch remains open when the seat belt is fastened. Sensing voltage output by the ACU
creates a current flow through the R1 and R2 resistance within the seat belt switch. If the seat
belt is not fastened, the switch adheres to the contact and sensing voltage passes through the
switch, creating a current flow through R2. The ACU detects a larger current flow and
recognizes the belt as not fastened.

from the Supplemental Restraint System Control Module (SRSCM) to the hall element and
Transistor 1 (T1) . With Transistor 1 turned on, current has to flow to ground via resistor R1
and R 2 . This "low" current flow is measured by the microprocessor inside the SRSCM and
judged as buckled condition. In comparison to the buckled condition, voltage is applied to
transistor 2 (T2) by means of the hall element due to the change in magnetic fields when the
driver/passenger is unbuckled. The current has to flow only vie resistor R2. The current flow
measured by the microprocessor inside the SRSCM, is somewhat higher compared to the
buckled condition and is judged as unbuckled condition.

two zones to determine whether airbag deployment is necessary. As shown in the diagram, if
the seat is positioned in Zone 1, the sensor recognizes a passenger being close to the
steering wheel or dashboard and reduces deployment speed and inflation level. If the seat is in
Zone 2, a passenger is positioned behind the DAB module or PAB module, so airbag
deployment takes place at a higher speed.
Passenger detection sensor
A passenger detection sensor can be found in an advanced airbag system. It detects
passenger presence in the front passenger seat to determine airbag deployment. The four
types of passenger detection sensor include PPD (Passenger Presence Detection), PODS
(Passenger Occupant Detection System), OCS (Occupant Classification System) and WCS
(Weight Classification System).
Passenger Presence Detection (PPD)
PPD allows the detection of the entire seat area. The PPD sensor
mat consists of screen-printed, force sensitive detectors on a
polymer film sandwich. Force applied to the sensors create an
analogue change in resistance which is measured by the PPD
interface. The information is forwarded to the ACU.
The system is permanently monitored for open or short circuits. If
a system failure is detected, the passenger airbag will be
deployed in the event of a collision.
The PPD system is capable of detecting two classes of
occupants.
Class 0: passenger seat is not occupied and weight is
below 15kg, no Passenger Airbag (PAB) deployment.
Class 1: passenger seat occupied and weight is above
15kg, Passenger Airbag (PAB) deployment.

(PODS-B)
There are 2 kinds of PODS. The systems are referred to as PODS-A and PODS-B.
PODS-A
In general the Passive Occupant Detection System (PODS) is designed to classify the
occupant seated in the front passenger seat for potential airbag suppression.
- Class 0: Seat not occupied, PAB OFF
- Class 1: Seat occupied, more than 30kg, PAB ON
It consists of a pressure sensor, a fluid filled bladder assembly, and an Electronic Control Unit
(ECU). The sensing system detects loading force on the front passenger seat and classifies
the seat as empty, or occupied. The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) processes the sensor data
and provides a deployment-allowed output to the ACU when a defined threshold is met.
The PODS system algorithm compensates for vehicle and road dynamics as well as for
seated weight loss caused by the support from the backrest, armrest etc. by comparing the
seat load values during various time intervals.
PODS-B
PODS-B can be found in advanced airbag systems. A additional seat belt tension sensor is
installed. This sensor is for the CRS (Child Restraint System). If the child seat is installed on
the front passenger seat, the load sensed value would probably be misinterpreted by the
bladder due to the pressure caused by the seatbelt tension exerted to the seat.
To
compensate this pre-load by the child seat, this initial tension value is substituted by PODS-B
ECU for gaining a higher accuracy. In such cases, and also if the passenger seat is not
occupied, a passenger airbag off indicator light will be illuminated.
119
OCS Electronic
Control Unit (ECU)
The sensor system employs a flexible mat containing multiple sensor cells that independently
measure pressure by evaluating electrical resistance. The determined resistance is converted
by the Occupant Classification System (OCS) Electronics into a set of digital values that is then
matched with a discrete occupancy pressure pattern. The design of the mat is designed to
compensate for environmental influences such as seat parameters and temperature. A sensor
self check is performed continuously during operation to check the integrity of the sensor mat.
The system is designed to distinguish three occupant classes
Class 0: seat not occupied or occupied by child seat, PAB OFF
Class 1: child up to 6 years of age or occupied by child seat, PAB OFF
Class 2: 5th percentile female and larger(average American adult female 150cm/48kg), PAB
ON
4) Airbag Modules
The inner surface of an airbag is a rubber-coated nylon-cotton-mix fabric. An inflator is located
inside. The airbag module must detect an accident within 3ms; deployment takes place after
20ms. After 35ms, the airbag must be 100% deployed and, after 40ms, it must shrink for the
passenger's safe landing. After 105ms, the airbag shrinks fully, bringing airbag deployment to
an end.

5) Clock Spring
A clock spring is installed between the steering wheel and steering column. It connects the
wiring between the ACU and driver airbag module. If general wiring is used to connect the
driver airbag module and ACU, turning the steering wheel left and right can twist and
disconnect the wiring. A clock spring, shaped like a clock spring, is installed to prevent this
from happening. A clock spring contains wiring that can be wound and released like a clock
spring. As a clock spring turns when the steering wheel is turned, a center point must be set
when installing a clock spring. Without a center point, the internal wiring can get disconnected,
causing driver airbag deployment failure.
Steering Wheel
Multifunction SW

6) Pre-Tensioners
The ACU activates the pre-tensioner before airbag deployment when a collision occurs. When
the pre-tensioner functions, any looseness in the seatbelt is reduced to fix the passenger
securely into the seat for reduced movement upon impact. This also keeps the passenger in a
secure position during airbag deployment and prevents them hitting the crush pad, steering
wheel or windscreen. A minor impact can result in the deployment of the pre-tensioner only. A
pre-tensioner must be replaced after every deployment.
The two types of pre-tensioner are a belt pre-tensioner and an anchor pre-tensioner, also
called an emergency fastening device. In general, the term "pre-tensioner" refers to a belt pretensioner. An anchor pre-tensioner instantly pulls the strap around the pelvis of a front seat
passenger to protect the lower body for enhanced collision safety

8) Telltale Lamp
A telltale lamp is only applied to advanced-specs vehicles in North
America. If the ACU detects a situation that requires passenger airbag
deactivation, the "Passenger Airbag Off" indicator on the cluster is lit to
notify the user
.
122
4.4 Control
The ACU determines the need for airbag deployment by comprehensively assessing vehicle
speed/position signals received from its internal sensor, various external collision sensors and
C-CAN. When airbag deployment is determined, a current is sent to each airbag module for
ignition. Airbag deployment logic can vary by vehicle. The following airbag deployment
requirements are for reference only.

Procedure

3) Crash Output
When a collision is detected (conditions that demand the deployment of frontal/side airbag or
belt pre-tensioner), the ACU sends a digital signal called "crash output." This signal is sent to
the BCM to unlock the doors.
The crash output signal is modulated according to the PWM. In a normal zone, high-level duty
is set to 80%; in the event of a breakdown, high-level duty is set to 20%. In the event of a
collision, this signal is repeated 50 times in 1,000ms.
126
Connect diagnostic equipment and view the ACU's current data to verify sensor readings and
airbag module resistances. Each airbag module has a set resistance value in the ignition
circuit. In general, 2 ohm is measured when a range of 1.6 to 4.7 ohm is measured.
2) Variant Coding
As with the cluster, the ACU requires variant coding when replaced with a new unit. Variant
coding of the ACU is the same as one for cluster; an online and offline method can be used.
The online method involves entering the VIN of a vehicle to download vehicle specifications to
the GDS. Variant coding takes place automatically thereafter. The offline method involves
entering an ACU coding code found on the GSW site.
If variant coding fails because vehicle specifications do not match, a DTC is generated and the
warning lamp is activated. Up to 255 retries are possible when variant coding fails.
Variant coding cannot be performed on the same ACU more than once. If attempted, the GDS
generates a "failed" message.

Passive engine start is possible if lever position is in P or N with the brake pedal pressed

When the user presses the start/stop button, a switch signal is sent to the SMK module
through two lines. A fail-safe function activates if one of the two lines is faulty. Refer to the
fail-safe function explanation.
When the SSB signal is sent, the SMK module activates the interior LF antenna.
The interior LF antenna sends wireless LF signals to locate the smart key.
Upon receiving the LF signal, the smart key sends its own key data to the RF receiver as a
RF signal.
The RF receiver sends the received smart key data to the SMK module.
Once the SMK module verifies the smart key data as valid, the power distribution relay is
activated.
The SMK module verifies the ESCL state data through the serial communication line.
If the ESCL module is verified as normal, the SMK sends an "enable" signal to the ESCL. (
An "unlock ESCL" command is also sent to the serial communication line at the same time.)
139
After disabling the steering column, the ESCL module sends an "unlock" switch signal to
the SMK module. A "deactivate" signal is also sent through the serial communication line at
the same time.
Once the ESCL module is deactivated, the SMK module receives engine and transmission
specifications through the C-CAN line, and sends key verification data to the engine ECU
through the H/Wire.
The engine ECU starts an ignition. Once RPM data is sent, the ignition relay is cut off and
engine start completes.
<Note>
~is omitted if there is no ESCL.
The ESCL can be locked and unlocked if both the serial communication line and unlock switch
signal are normal.
If ESCL deactivation does not take place properly, cranking is possible, but ignition cannot take
place.
If the SSB is pressed within 30 seconds after a passive door unlock, ~is omitted and the power
distribution relay activates immediately pre-verified function
4) LIMPHOME mode
A limp home ignition is an emergency start-up method. The smart key is inserted in the
holder for verification when there is insufficient battery power or if wireless verification fails.
From SMK Version 2.5 and onward, the key holder was removed and its function is
performed by the ignition button and SMK module.

When an ignition button signal is input, the SMK module activates the interior antenna. If a
RF signal is not received from the smart key at this time, the SMK module activates the
antenna coil inside the start/stop button once more. When the smart key data is sent to the
start/stop button through the antenna coil, the start/stop button sends the data to the SMK
module again. The SMK module checks for a data match through key verification. If valid,
ignition takes place.

2) Key Registration
As with immobilizer key registration, a new key must be registered with the engine ECU,
SMK unit and ESCL module. Once smart key learning starts, key registration takes place in
the order of ESCL SMK module engine ECU. Key registration fails if key registration
for a North American-specs vehicle (without an ESCL) is attempted using diagnostic
equipment designed for European specifications and vice versa. Key registration procedure
is as follows.
SMK 2.5 ver. ~ : Connect diagnostic equipment and enter key registration mode enter
PIN code press SSB with smart key (1st time) completed press SSB with smart
key (2nd time) completed
~ SMK 2.5 ver. : Instead of pressing the SSB with the smart key, insert it in the key holder
and perform key registration.
3) Neutral Mode
The neutral mode applied to the immobilizer system is equally applied to the smart key
system. With the smart key system, diagnostic equipment can be used to neutralize the
engine ECU, SMK module and ESCL module. Vehicle PIN is required for neutralization
.

5) Actuation Test
The smart key system uses a diagnostic program for actuation tests. An actuation test can

No self-check mode
The conventional ventilation function was archived by a blower motor and air duct. Ventilated
seats of late-model vehicles are equipped with two blower motors that emit cool air. Difference
exists in their control also. While voltage was controlled by the control module through an IC in
the past, newer ventilated seats' blower intensity is adjusted through PWM signals.
It used to be impossible to diagnose the ventilation module with diagnostic equipment due to a
lack of communication. Newer ventilated seats have a self-check function that identifies any
trouble in specific areas through simple button control.

the control unit sends an activation signal to each blower motor separately. A ventilated seat is
generally found in the driver seat and front passenger seat of mid-size vehicles or larger
vehicles

A heating/cooling switch is an assembly that consists of a seat heater switch and a ventilation
level switch. Being a push/return-type switch, it can be used to control seating heating and
cooling at three levels. Each press of the switch changes the setting from High (level 3),
Middle (level 2), Low (level 1) to Off.
The switch internals is designed as a simple contact device where pressing the switch enables
the vehicle's ignition power (12V) to flow to the CCS control unit. (Pull-down method: The CCS
control unit monitors the time and the number of relevant switch signal inputs in order to
activate the heating wire or ventilation blower motor.
If you press and hold the switch for more than 1.5 seconds, the unit turns OFF
2) Ventilation Module
A temperature sensor is installed on the seat surface (cushion) along with the heating wire.
The CCS control unit controls heating wire temperature based on input temperature sensor
readings.
4) Blower Motor
The CCS blower motor is installed at the bottom of
the seat cushion or on the seat back, and contains a
control IC to control the motor current. The connector
linked to the ventilation module is made up of three
terminals. Motor speed control signals are received
from a 12V ground and the ventilation module.

circuit
The ventilation control unit starts up the heating wire output stage when a heating wire
selection signal is received. Producing maximum heating wire output (approx, 12V), the
ventilation control unit achieves the target temperature in 30 minutes. Heating output is turned
on or off (or PWM is controlled) to maintain the user-set temperature.
To monitor temperature sensor readings (NTC), the ventilation control unit sends 5V of pull-up
voltage to the temperature sensor. When seat temperature increases as the heating wire
heats up, NTC resistance falls, leading to a gradual reduction in the voltage at the NTC input.
This voltage change is sent to the CPU through the NTC input circuit. The ventilation control
unit adjusts seat temperature to fulfill the user setting through variable control of heating wire
output.
The ventilation control unit stops heating wire operation if a NTC sensor error is detected.

B+ recall
Recall is possible using battery power when the driver door is open even if ignition is off. If
the driver door is closed when ignition is off, a recall must be initiated within 30 seconds.
Drive control
A recall takes place in a certain order to prevent current overlaps when the seat motor is
driving. The actuator is driven in the following order: Slide motor Reclining Motor
Front Height Rear Hight. Delay between each motor is approximately 100ms.
4) Driver In/out Synchronization
IG OFF
An incoming IG OFF signal from the BCM moves the seat and steering column to let the
driver out with ease. The slide motor moves the seat back by up to 50mm (stops when the
limit is reached). The tilt motor moves the steering column to the limit from the IG off
position.
IG ON
Seat and steering column position is recalled to the one memorized immediately before
ignition was switched off.
Driver in/out synchronization only takes place when it is enabled in USM mode.
158
As IMS switch signals are sent to the driver door module, sensor readings for switch
signals can be checked in the driver door module. In addition, mirror position sensor
readings and mirror switch signals can be checked in the current data of the driver door
module.
The state of each manual switch and actuator drive can be checked in the current data of
the power seat module. Also, limit switch setting can be checked.
Current data is also provided by the steering column module and assist door module.
159
2) Actuation Test
The power seat module conducts an actuation test on each actuator. An actuation test
verifies normal functioning of actuators.

4.4 Functions
1) Safety Function
When an object obstructs the window's path during the auto-up motion, the safety unit stops
the motor immediately and puts it into reverse to lower the window. The window will reverse
direction from where the obstruction was first encountered to the set position, then stop. The
exact reverse motion range of the window is shown in the table below:

2) Panic Function
In the event of an emergency when the driver is inside the vehicle (e.g. intrusion), the window
must be raised and fully closed even if a foreign object is in the way. In this case, he or she
may operate the window using the manual-up function, but it will not be practicable to do so.
People tend to pull on the power window switch by instinct during an emergency, and this can
result in an unwanted safety operation.
If an auto up switch signal is input for a set time (approximately one second), driver panic is
recognized. Initial detection of an obstacle triggers a window reversal (lowered by 2.5 cm and
stops). If an auto up signal persists for 1 second or longer again, the obstacle is ignored and
the window is raised to a full closure.

How to check for initialization cancellation: If the uninitialization has been done correctly, the auto-up,
safety, and soft stop functions will not work.
