The conventional portion of the electrical system carries DC power through separate wires to each component. The multiplex portion of the system, however, sends digital signals between control units through shared wires to reduce the number and weight of wire harnesses. The signals from each switch are converted to digital signals within the receiving multiplex control unit. The digital signals are sent from the multiplex control unit to other control units as serial data over dedicated communication lines. When the appropriate control unit receives the digital signal, it converts the digital signal back to a switch signal and operates the related components.
The multiplex control system schematic shows it's power, grounds, and communication lines. The ignition key light and front ceiling light are also shown because they are used to blink DTCs in the system's self-diagnosis function.
