POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM


System Description

- PDS (POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM) is the system that BCM controls with the operation of the push-button ignition switch and performs the power distribution to each power circuit. This system is used instead of the mechanical power supply changing mechanism with the operation of the conventional key cylinder.
- The push-button ignition switch can be operated when Intelligent Key is in the following condition. Refer to Engine Start Function for details.
- Intelligent Key is in the detection area of the inside key antenna
- Insert Intelligent Key into the key slot
- The push-button ignition switch operation is input to BCM as a signal. BCM changes the power supply position according to the status and operates the following relays to supply power to each power circuit.
- Ignition relay (built into IPDM E/R)
- Ignition relay (inserted into fuse block)
- ACC relay
- Blower relay
- The power supply position changes due to the conditions of push-button ignition switch operation, brake pedal, clutch pedal, selector lever and vehicle speed.

NOTE:
- The power supply position can be confirmed with the lighting of the indicators near the push-button ignition switch.
- For models without steering lock unit, power supply position changes from "OFF" to "LOCK" when steering lock conditions are satisfied.

BATTERY SAVER SYSTEM
When all of the following conditions are met for 60 minutes, the battery saver system will cut off the power supply to prevent battery discharge.
- The ignition switch is in the ACC position
- All doors are closed
- Selector lever is in the P position

Reset Condition of Battery Saver System
If any of the following conditions are met the battery saver system is released and the steering will change automatically to the LOCK position from the OFF position.
- Opening any door
- Operating with door key cylinder on door lock
- Operating with request switch on door lock
- Operating with Intelligent Key on door lock
Press push-button ignition switch and ignition switch will change to the ACC position from the OFF position.

STEERING LOCK OPERATION (MODELS WITH STEERING LOCK UNIT)
Steering is locked by steering lock unit when ignition switch is in the OFF position, selector lever is in the P position and any of the following conditions are met.
- Opening door
- Closing door
- Door is locked with request switch
- Door is locked with Intelligent Key

NOTE:
For models without steering lock unit, power supply position changes to LOCK even through the steering lock operation is not performed.

PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION PROCEDURE
The power supply position changing operation can be performed with the following operations.

Operation Enable Condition
- When an Intelligent Key is within the detection area of inside key antenna or when it is inserted into the key slot, the operation is as per the following.
- When starting the engine, the BCM monitors the following engine start conditions, - Brake pedal operating condition
- Selector lever position
- Vehicle speed
- Unless each start condition is fulfilled, the engine will not respond regardless of how many times the engine switch is pressed. At that time, illumination repeats the position in the order of LOCK to ACC to ON to OFF.
