BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-19
Operation
For IDM inputs which are also inputs for BCU functions, the delay before the BCU recognises the change in input
status is less than 250 ms. The BCU uses a debounce algorithm to ignore changes in input having a duration less
than 100 ms with the exception of automatic gearbox W, X, Y, Z inputs, which have a debounce period of 33 ms.
Transit mode
To prevent excessive battery drain during transit to overseas markets, the vehicle is placed in a transit mode.
To exit the transit mode, simultaneously hold down the heated rear window switch and the rear fog lamp switch, turn
the ignition switch from 0 to II and, after a minimum of 2 seconds, release the switches.
Transit mode can be entered using TestBook. When TestBook communicates with the BCU for diagnostics related to
BCU operation, it first checks that the vehicle is not in transit mode.
Anti-theft system
The BCU uses the driver's door key lock and unlock switches to activate and deactivate the security system. The
driver's door lock is also used for entering the EKA.
+ ALARM SYSTEM AND HORN, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
Immobilisation
For immobilisation, the BCU disables the starter motor relay. When the engine is cranking, the ECM looks for a coded
signal from the BCU. If the signal is not received within one second of cranking, the fuel supply to the engine is
stopped and the injectors are disabled. This also prevents unburnt fuel from entering the catalyst.
If the BCU is disconnected, the engine starter motor will remain isolated by the starter motor relay and the ECM will
remain immobilised. The main wiring for the system is contained within the main harness which is relatively
inaccessible, so preventing intruders from disabling the system by cutting the wires for the immobilisation system.
Once the immobiliser has been activated, destruction of the trigger device or the wiring to it will not disarm the system.
The RF transmitter communicates to the BCU via the RF receiver using a 70 bit code. Pressing the unlock button on
the transmitter will re-mobilise the vehicle. The RF transponder is integrated into the metal key assembly, inserting
the key into the ignition switch will induce a signal in the exciter coil to re-mobilise the vehicle.
Anti-theft alarm
The alarm system provides a warning of unauthorised access to the vehicle and includes perimetric and volumetric
monitoring under the control of the BCU.
The perimetric protection system detects opening of all doors, tail door and bonnet and will also detect the operation
of the ignition key switch. The following conditions must be satisfied before the BCU will operate all of the functions
of perimetric protection:
lAll doors and hinged panels are in the closed position.
lIgnition key out of the ignition switch.
lInertia switch is not tripped.
If all conditions are not satisfied the BCU will enter a mislock condition.
The volumetric sensor uses two ultrasonic sensors mounted in the headlining to detect movement within the vehicle.
The alarm will trigger when the sensor signals the BCU for 200 ms or greater. Within a single setting period the alarm
system will allow a maximum of 10 triggers as a result of any combination of sensor inputs. It is possible to lock the
vehicle without enabling the volumetric alarm by using the key. The same conditions needed to satisfy enabling of the
perimetric protection system is also needed to enable volumetric protection.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-29
Courtesy headlamps
This feature activates the headlamps for 30 seconds when the lock button on the remote transmitter is held down for
longer than 1 second. The headlamps will extinguish if the BCU receives either a lock or an unlock signal from the
remote transmitter.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the correct qualifying conditions for requesting
courtesy headlamps:
lIgnition state.
lRemote locking request.
lRemote unlocking request.
lLazy locking request.
If the ignition is off and a lazy locking request is received, the courtesy headlamps are switched on and an internal
timer is turned on in the BCU which operates for 30 seconds. If the 30 second timer expires or a request for remote
locking or remote unlocking is received, the courtesy headlamps will be turned off.
When main beam is selected, the IDM also provides a signal to the instrument pack to switch on the main beam
warning lamp. An additional signal 'main beam indicator disable' is used to prevent the daylight running lamps
illuminating the main beam indicator when the main beam is in the daylight running lamp state and the main beam
indicator disable signal is on.
Lights on alarm
The lights on alarm in the instrument pack operates when the driver's door is open and the side lamps or headlamps
are on. The system uses inputs from the driver's door switch and the lighting switch to determine the logical conditions
that need to occur for switching on the alarm. The BCU carries out the logic operation and communicates with the
instrument pack using the serial data bus; the instrument pack will be requested to sound the alarm if the logic inputs
indicate that the driver's door is open with the lights still on.
Supply voltage is provided through the lighting switch to the IDM which acts as the signal line to indicate that the lights
are on for the logic circuits in the IDM and BCU. When the driver's door is opened, a second feed is supplied to the
BCU through the driver's door switch to indicate the condition. In this logic condition (lights on and driver's door open)
the BCU signals the instrument pack to operate the audible warning. If the lights are switched off or the driver's door
is closed the logic condition will be changed and the audible warning will be switched off.
Daylight running lamps
The BCU operates the daylight running lamps (where fitted) via the IDM. The daylight running lamps option can be
programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer requirements, these are:
lOption 1– no daylight running lamps.
lOption 2 – on with main beam off.
lOption 3 – on with main and dipped beam off and gearbox not in Park.
The BCU will ensure the logical conditions are satisfied for the lamps to operate under the set conditions. The BCU
checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for providing an output to the daylight running
lamp relay:
lMain beam state.
lEngine running (link from instrument pack).
lDipped beam.
lGearbox state.
A voltage supply is fed to the coil of the daylight running lamp relay and the IDM. When the preconditions are satisfied
for daylight running lamp operation, the BCU sends a signal for the IDM to complete the circuit to earth to switch on
the daylight running lamps. The logical inputs are checked to ensure that the engine is running before switching the
relay to turn on the daylight running lamps. The engine running signal has to be present for at least 2 seconds before
the daylight running lamp relay can be switched on.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-32 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Odometer update
The BCU can be programmed for one of two options:
lOption 1 – no odometer error warning.
lOption 2 – odometer error warning.
In order to provide an LCD flash request to the instrument pack via the communications link, the following inputs are
checked:
lIgnition state.
lInstrument pack odometer value (via the communications link).
lBCU odometer value.
The function is only active when the ignition state is on. The maximum allowed value is 999,999 miles (1,608,999
km).If the instrument pack odometer value is greater than the maximum allowed value, the maximum value is
assumed. The BCU odometer value is stored in EEPROM. If 16 identical values of the instrument pack odometer
reading is received consecutively, the instrument pack odometer value is compared with the BCU odometer value. If
the consecutive readings from the instrument pack differ, the BCU odometer value is incremented accordingly. If the
BCU odometer value is less than the instrument pack odometer value by up to 10 km, the BCU odometer value is set
equal to the instrument pack odometer value.
If the odometer warning option is enabled, and the contents of the instrument pack odometer value buffer is identical
to, or greater than BCU odometer value
± 10 km, the BCU sends an LED flash request to the instrument pack.
In the event of a communications link failure, this function will be unable to operate.
Gear position indicator illumination
On automatic gearbox models, two variations of illumination for the gear position indicators on the selector lever can
be programmed into the BCU. In option 1, illumination is provided when the ignition is on. In option 2, illumination is
enabled when the ignition is on and the side lamps are off.
Starter relay
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs and internal BCU conditions to determine whether or not to provide
an output to enable the starter relay:
lAutostart inhibit (vehicles with automatic gearbox only).
lSecurity start inhibit (immobilisation check).
lEngine running (link to instrument pack).
lEEPROM locked (internal check).
lIDM and BCU matched.
When the BCU receives a crank signal from the ignition switch, an earth path is completed to the starter relay coil,
provided that the security system has been de-activated. If the ECM has not received a valid unlock/ remobilise signal,
the starter relay will be disengaged and the engine stopped. The BCU also receives an engine running signal from
the instrument pack, so that if the ignition key is turned to the crank position while the engine is running, the starter
motor relay will not be engaged.
If the logic conditions are correct to allow starter operation, the completion of the earth path from the starter relay coil
to the BCU energises the coil and the relay contacts close to supply battery power to the starter motor.
When the ignition switch is released from the crank position, the power supply feed from the ignition switch to the
starter relay coil is interrupted and the relay contacts open to prevent further battery feed to the starter motor.
If a communications link failure is experienced, the BCU will be prevented from detecting the 'engine running'
condition and the BCU will default to assume that the engine is not running.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-33
Cruise control
The Neutral/ Reverse/ Park/ Brake selected output is used by the cruise control system. The BCU checks for the
following inputs:
lIgnition on.
lGearbox state.
lBrake switch activated.
For vehicles with manual transmission, Neutral/ Reverse/ Park/ Brake selected output is on if the ignition is on and
brake switch activated is on. Otherwise, the Neutral/ Reverse/ Park/ Brake selected output is off.
For vehicles with automatic transmission, the Neutral/ Reverse/ Park/ Brake selected output is on if the ignition is on
and brake switch activated is on, or if the ignition is on and 'gearbox state' is in Neutral, Park or Reverse. Otherwise
Neutral/ Reverse/ Park/ Brake selected output is off.
Shift interlock (where fitted)
On automatic gearbox models, the BCU and IDM combine to operate a shift interlock solenoid, so that the gear
selector lever can only be moved when certain logical conditions have been satisfied. Operation of the interlock may
be affected, if the battery becomes discharged.
+ AUTOMATIC GEARBOX - ZF4HP22 - 24, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
When the gear selector lever is in the Park position and the ignition is off, an interlock solenoid is de-energised, locking
the gear selector lever in the Park position.
The gear selector lever can only be moved from the Park position when the ignition is switched on and the brake pedal
is depressed. When these conditions are satisfied, the brake pedal switch signal is received by the BCU which then
signals the IDM to energise the interlock relay. When the interlock relay is energised, the interlock solenoid is
operated, unlocking the gear selector lever.
When the brake pedal is released, the feed to the BCU is removed and the shift interlock solenoid is de-energised.
The locking mechanism controlled by the solenoid will lock the gear selector lever once it is returned to the Park
position.
The shift interlock option can be programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer requirements,
these are:
lOption 1– not fitted.
lOption 2 – normal operation.
lOption 3 – inhibit transfer box.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for employing the shift interlock
solenoid:
lBrake switch activated.
lIgnition state.
lGearbox state.
In the event of a communications link failure, the shift interlock solenoid enable is switched on for 1 minute every time
the ignition is switched on and switched off when the ignition is turned off.
Ignition interlock (where fitted)
On automatic gearbox models, when the ignition key is inserted in the ignition switch, the ignition key-in switch
contacts close to supply a signal to the BCU to indicate the presence of the key in the switch and provide a supply
feed to the ignition interlock solenoid. If the gear selector lever is in a position other than Park, or the 'transfer box
neutral selected' is on, the BCU will supply an earth path to complete the ignition interlock circuit and cause the
interlock solenoid to be engaged. With the interlock solenoid engaged, removal of the ignition key is prevented. The
BCU will open the circuit, to allow removal of the ignition key, only when the gear selector lever is in the Park position
and the transfer box is in either high or low range.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-34 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The ignition key interlock option can be programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer
requirements, these are:
lOption 1– not fitted.
lOption 2 – normal operation.
lOption 3 – inhibit transfer box.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for operating the ignition key interlock
solenoid:
lTransfer box neutral selected.
lGearbox state.
lTransit mode.
When the transit mode is on, the ignition key interlock solenoid is off.
Transfer box interlock (where fitted)
The transfer box interlock is controlled by the IDM to prevent transfer box shifter operation unless certain
preconditions have been satisfied.
The transfer box interlock prevents the transfer box being shifted from High or Low to neutral with the ignition key
removed from the ignition switch. When the BCU senses that the ignition key is removed from the ignition switch, it
signals the IDM via the serial data bus. The IDM then provides an earth path for the coil of the transfer box relay,
energising the relay coil and closing the relay contacts to provide a voltage supply to the transfer box interlock
solenoid.
A diode is included in the supply line to the solenoid to prevent residual current causing the solenoid to stick in the
energised position.
The transfer box solenoid interlock option can be programmed in one of three states dependent on market/ customer
requirements, these are:
lOption 1– not fitted.
lOption 2 – normal operation.
lOption 3 – inhibit transfer box.
The BCU checks the status of the following inputs to determine the logic action for employing the transfer box interlock
solenoid (transfer box solenoid enable):
lIgnition state.
lGearbox state.
In the event of a communications link failure occurring while the transfer box enable is on, the output will be switched
off.
Gear position switch
On automatic gearbox models, the BCU provides an output which supplies power to the automatic gearbox gear
position switch. The BCU checks for the following inputs before it supplies power:
lIgnition on.
lAuxiliary.
When the ignition is on, the feed to the gear position switch is on. When the ignition is off and auxiliary is off for more
than 30 seconds, feed to the gear position switch is off.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
87-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
The navigation system provides audio and visual route guidance to help the driver reach a selected destination. The
system is an optional fit consisting of a Traffic Pro navigation computer and antenna, manufactured by Harman/
Becker Automotive Systems, which are fitted in place of the In Car Entertainment (ICE) head unit and antenna.
Compact Disc (CD) and radio functions are incorporated into the navigation computer.
The navigation system allows the driver to choose between the shortest and fastest routes between the vehicle's
current position and a selected destination, and to select a stopover point in the journey and a route that avoids
motorways, ferries and toll roads. Directions to Points Of Interest (POI) e.g. airports, hospitals, petrol stations etc,
either local, national or in another country, can also be selected. A traffic jam function enables the driver to request
diversion instructions, around an obstructed part of the selected route, during the journey. A Traffic Management
Control (TMC) function, currently only available in some European countries, monitors traffic broadcasts and
automatically selects an alternative route during the journey if the original route is effected by a traffic jam, accident
or road works etc.
The position of the vehicle is determined by the navigation computer using a combination of vehicle sensor inputs and
radio signals from the 24 Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the earth. The position of the vehicle is
then plotted on a digitised map, loaded into the navigation computer from a CD-ROM, to determine the journey route
and provide the route guidance.
The GPS satellite signals are used for initial determination of the vehicle's position and periodic position updates. The
vehicle sensor inputs are used to monitor the vehicle's direction of travel and distance travelled between position
updates from the GPS satellite signals. The vehicle sensor inputs consist of:
lA vehicle speed signal from the ABS ECU, to monitor the distance travelled and for automatic volume control.
lA reverse gear signal from the selector and inhibitor switch of the automatic gearbox, or reverse gear switch of
the manual gearbox, to enable the navigation computer to differentiate between forward and rearward movement
of the vehicle.
lA gyro in the navigation computer, to monitor changes of direction, i.e. steering inputs.
The signal from each GPS satellite contains information about satellite position, almanac data and time (almanac data
is the current status of the satellite). Signals from between five and 11 of the GPS satellites can be received at a given
point on the earth's surface at any one time. The number and quality of separate GPS satellite signals received also
varies with vehicle location. In hilly or tree lined areas, built up areas with tall buildings, multi-storey car parks,
garages, tunnels, bridges and during heavy rain/thunderstorms, signal reception of some or all of the GPS satellites
will be poor or non existent.
A minimum of three separate GPS satellite signals are required for the navigation computer to calculate a three
dimensional (3D) positional fix. When only two signals are being received, the navigation computer will calculate a
less accurate two dimensional (2D) positional fix. The more widely dispersed that the GPS satellites are, the more
accurate the positional fix. The navigation computer can store information from a maximum of 12 GPS satellites at
any one time. When more than three signals are stored, the navigation computer selects the three most widely
dispersed signals for the position calculation.
GPS Antenna and diplexer unit
The GPS antenna is installed at the rear of the roof on the centreline. A diplexer unit on the underside of the GPS
antenna amplifies the radio signals received from the GPS satellites and transmits them through separate dedicated
co-axial cable to the navigation computer for processing.

INSTRUMENTS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-5
Description
General
The instrument pack consists of four analogue dials, four warning lamp packs and a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
odometer.
The four dials are used to indicate:
lRoad speed.
lEngine speed.
lFuel tank level.
lEngine coolant temperature.
The dials are driven by a microprocessor from information received from the serial communication link. Information
input is received as either:
lDigital.
lAnalogue.
lPulse train.
lPulse Width Modulation (PWM).
The LCD provides information for:
lOdometer.
lTrip distance.
lSelected gear (on vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox).
A trip reset button is provided to zero the trip display, this button also allows the selection of "miles" or "kilometres"
for the display. A photocell controls the illumination of the LCD, maintaining contrast of the display during ambient light
changes.
Within the four warning lamp packs there are 28 lamps. A long life bulb illuminates the high beam warning lamp and
the rest of the warning lamps are illuminated by Light Emitting Diodes (LED's). All warning lamp legends are invisible
until lit. When lit the symbols are illuminated on a black background.
The warning lamps illuminate in one of four colours. The colour indicates the level of importance to the driver, as
follows:
lRed = warning.
lAmber = caution.
lGreen = system operative.
lBlue = main beam operative.
The first warning lamp pack is located in the top left-hand side of the instrument pack and contains the following
warning lamps:
lTraction control warning lamp.
lTransfer box in neutral warning lamp.
lDifferential lock warning lamp
lOverspeed warning lamp (activated for gulf market only).
lBrake system warning lamp.
lHill Descent Control (HDC) information warning lamp.
lMalfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)/ SERVICE ENGINE SOON warning lamp.
The second warning lamp pack is located in the centre of the instrument pack and contains the following warning
lamps:
lDirection indicator warning lamps.
lHigh beam warning lamp.
lAnti-lock brake system warning lamp.
Page 1633 of 1672

INSTRUMENTS
88-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The third warning lamp pack is located in the top right-hand side of the instrument pack and contains the following
warning lamps:
lSRS warning lamp.
lSLS off road mode warning lamp.
lTrailer warning lamp.
lGlow plug warning lamp.
lWater in fuel filter warning lamp.
lSeat belt warning lamp.
lTransmission high temperature warning lamp.
The fourth warning lamp pack is located underneath the tachometer of the instrument pack contains the following
warning lamps:
lOil pressure warning lamp.
lAlternator charge warning lamp.
lHDC fault warning lamp.
lSelf Levelling Suspension (SLS) warning lamp.
lActive Cornering Enhancement (ACE) warning lamp.
lGearbox manual/sport mode warning lamps.
The serial communication link is used to allow information to travel to and from the instrument pack, and it provides
the ability to configure the instrument pack to a specific market. It also allows the instrument pack to be controlled by
TestBook for diagnostics.
There are five market specific variants of the instrument pack:
lUnited Kingdom (UK).
lNorth American Specification (NAS).
lCanada.
lAustralia.
lRest Of the World (ROW), Gulf and Japan.
The main difference between the five markets is that the speedometer will indicate road speed in mph as major figures
and km/h as minor figures, km/h as major figures and mph as minor figures or km/h only.
When TestBook is used to diagnose the instrument pack it demands each of the dials and warning lamps to operate
in-turn so a visual check of their operation can be made.
CAUTION: The instrument pack must not be stored on its face side at any time. This is because the dials have
damping fluid within them to ensure smooth operation of the dials' indicator needles. This fluid will leak out.
Speedometer
The speedometer informs the driver of the current vehicle road speed. It has a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to show
odometer, trip meter and, on automatic gearbox models, the selected gear. The speedometer will not show speeds
of less than 1.5 mph (2.5 km/h).
There are three different market configurations:
lNAS and UK = mph as major figures km/h as minor figures.
lCanada = km/h as major figures mph as minor figures.
lROW and Australia = km/h only.
The Self Levelling and Anti-Lock Brake System (SLABS) ECU provides the signal input for the road speed. The signal
is at 8000 pulses per mile (1.6 kilometres).

INSTRUMENTS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-7
LCD odometer/trip meter
The LCD has 3 different display elements:
lOdometer.
lTrip meter.
lSelected gear (on vehicles with automatic gearboxes).
The odometer displays units in either miles or kilometres. It has a range from 0 to 999,999 units, only full units are
displayed irrespective of the type of units selected, the display will stop at 999,999 units. TestBook can be used to
reset the odometer. This is allowed only once and must be carried out before 150 miles (240 km) from new, after this
distance the feature is disabled. The odometer may lose up to one km (0.6 miles) when the battery is reconnected,
this is due to the software incorporated into the instrument pack to prevent anyone tampering with the odometer
reading.
The trip meter displays units in either miles or kilometres and has a range of 0.0 to 999.9 units. The display rolls over
from 999.9 to 0.0 units. Units down to one tenth of a mile or one tenth of a kilometre are displayed. The trip meter
displays 0.0 when the battery is reconnected or charged from a discharged state.
A push button located next to the LCD is utilised to reset the trip meter to zero and to change the units from miles to
kilometres. Pressing the button for less than 2 seconds allows the display to reset to zero. Pressing the button for
more than 2 seconds changes the units from miles to kilometres and vice versa. The units will only change for UK,
NAS and Canadian market vehicles.
The selected gear displays when the automatic gearbox is in park, reverse, neutral, drive 3,2,1, by using the letters
or numbers PRND321 in the display.
The data input for the LCD odometer/trip meter is from the SLABS ECU for the distance input and from the BCU for
the gear position. The instrument pack provides the earth path to illuminate the gear position warning lamp.
If a replacement instrument pack is required TestBook must be used to retrieve the odometer reading, so that when
the new instrument pack is fitted the odometer reading can be programmed in.
