2. Disconnecting and connecting the battery connector before canceling armed phase.
POWER SUPPLY
Power is supplied at all times

through 10A fuse [No.19, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to security indicator lamp terminal 1.

through 50A fusible link (letter M , located in the fuse and fusible link box)

to BCM terminal 55.

through 15A fuse [No.22, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM terminal 42.

through 15A fuse [No.34, located in the fuse and fusible link box]

to horn relay terminal 2.

through 10A fuse [No.71, located in the IPDM E/R]

to IPDM E/R internal CPU.

through 15A fuse [No.78, located in the IPDM E/R]

to IPDM E/R internal CPU.
With the ignition switch in the ACC or ON position, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to BCM terminal 11.
INITIAL CONDITION TO ACTIVATE THE SYSTEM
The operation of the vehicle security system is controlled by the doors, hood and back door.
To activate the vehicle security system, BCM must receive signals indicating the doors, hood and back door
are closed and the doors are locked by key fob, Intelligent Key or ignition key.
When a door is open, BCM terminal 12 (passenger side door), 13 (rear RH door), 62 (driver side door), 63
(rear LH door) receives a ground signal from each door switch.
When front door LH is unlocked by power window main switch (door lock and unlock switch),
BCM terminal 22 receives a signal from terminal 14 of power window main switch with power window serial
link.
When front door RH is unlocked by front power window switch (passenger side) (door lock and unlock switch),
BCM terminal 22 receives a signal from terminal 16 of front power window switch (passenger side) with power
window serial link.
When the hood is open, IPDM E/R receives a ground signal

to IPDM E/R terminal 56

through hood switch terminal 2

through hood switch terminal 1

through body grounds E21, E50 and E51.
The IPDM E/R then sends a signal to the BCM through the CAN SYSTEM.
When the back door is open,

to BCM terminal 58

through back door closure motor terminal 7
