DIGITAL INPUT SIGNALS







The normal power-up and KL 50 inputs to the IKE processor:
- Terminal R,
- Terminal 15,
- Terminal 50

Various functions are dependent on the ignition switch positions.

Steering column switch - As in previous systems, this switch is used to call up BC functions into the cluster matrix.

Brake Pad Wear Sensors - The same system that has been used in earlier models is carried over into the E38.

Oil Pressure Switch - This status is transmitted to the CCM over the I-BUS. The CCM compares the switch status with engine speed to evaluate oil pressure. IKE can store faults with the oil pressure switch and circuit.

Parking Brake Switch - Switch status is transmitted to the CCM for evaluation.

Trip Odometer Reset - The left button on the cluster is used to reset the trip mileage if the key is on and display mileage it the key is off.
