System Description
- IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room) integrates the relay box and fuse block which were originally placed in engine compartment. It controls integrated relays via IPDM E/R control circuits.
- IPDM E/R-integrated control circuits perform ON-OFF operation of relays, CAN communication control, oil pressure switch signal reception, etc.
- It controls operation of each electrical component via ECM, BCM and CAN communication lines.
| CAUTION | None of the IPDM E/R integrated relays can be removed. |
CAN Communication System Description
Refer to , " CAN COMMUNICATION ".
CONSULT-II BASIC OPERATION
| CAUTION | If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carries out CAN communication. |

- Touch "START".
- When "SELECTION FROM MENU" is selected, touch items to be monitored. When "ALL SIGNALS" is selected, all the items will be monitored. When "MAIN SIGNALS" is selected, predetermined items are monitored.
- Touch "RECORD" while monitoring to record the status of the item being monitored. To stop recording, touch "STOP".
- Touch "ACTIVE TEST" on "SELECT DIAG-MODE" screen.
- Touch item to be tested, and check operation.
- Touch "START".
- Touch "STOP" while testing to stop the operation.

CONSULT-II SCREEN VALUE DESCRIPTION CHART
DESCRIPTION
- In auto active test mode, operation inspection can be performed when IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems: Rear window defogger Front wipers Tail, license and parking lamps Cornering lamps Front fog lamps Headlamps (Hi, Lo) A/C compressor (magnetic clutch) Cooling fan
- Close hood and front door RH, and lift wiper arms away from windshield (to prevent glass damage by wiper operation). NOTE: When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield beforehand.
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Turn ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn ignition switch OFF.
- Turn ignition switch ON within 10 seconds after ignition switch OFF.
- When auto active test mode is actuated, horn chirps once.
- After a series of operations is repeated three times, auto active test is completed. NOTE: When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway, turn ignition switch OFF. CAUTION: Be sure to perform , " «DOOR SWITCH CHECK (WITH AUTOMATIC BACK DOOR SYSTEM)»(ref-239955-S14567232732006080400000) " or , " «DOOR SWITCH CHECK (WITHOUT AUTOMATIC BACK DOOR SYSTEM)»(ref-239955-S06085851052006080400000) " when the auto active test cannot be performed.
