BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-15
The BCU controls the wiper motor frequency of operation via the IDM when intermittent wipe or wash is selected. The
front intermittent wipe option features five different intermittent delay periods. The shortest delay period is 3 seconds
and this is increased by 2 second increments up to a maximum delay of 11 seconds. The desired delay period for the
front wipers is set by the position of the rotary switch located on the wiper column stalk.
The rear wiper switch is located on the instrument pack cowl and is latched when pressed. The rear wiper electric
motor is located in the tail door. The rear wiper operation is controlled according to a programmed strategy via the
BCU and the IDM. The BCU also checks for a signal from either the reverse lamp switch located in the vehicle gearbox
(manual gearbox models) or the gear position switch (automatic gearbox models) for operating the rear wipers when
the vehicle is in reverse. The rear wiper and washer only operate when the ignition switch is in position II.
The front and rear washer pumps and the headlamp powerwash (where fitted) are also controlled through the BCU.
The washers are operated from electric pumps attached to the washer reservoir located in the left hand wheel arch.
The front wash switch is located on the wiper column stalk and is pulled towards the steering wheel to select the
washer function. When the front washers are operated, the wipers are also activated for three full cycles. The rear
wash switch is located on the instrument pack cowl. The BCU programme can be configured in one of two modes of
operation:
lNo wiper operation when the wash switch is pressed.
lWiper action after an initial delay of 400 ms.
Headlamp wash is activated by the BCU via the IDM and operates when the headlamps are on and the front washers
function is selected.
Electric seats
The BCU controls the logical operation of the electrically operated front seats. Two modes of operation are available:
+ SEATS, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description - electric seats.
lElectric seat adjustment is enabled if the ignition is on or the driver's door is opened for a short time period.
lElectric seat adjustment is enabled if the ignition is on and the driver's door is closed.
The seats are operated by four electric motors which control the seat cushion rear up/ down, the seat cushion front
up/ down, seat cushion forward/ rearward and seat squab recline. The electrically powered lumbar adjustment in each
seat is operated by a single motorised air pump and a solenoid located on the seat squab frame. The air pump inflates
a cushion in the seat squab and the solenoid operates a valve to deflate the cushion. The seat squab and cushion
may also contain heater elements to provide heated seat operation.
The switches for electrically operated seats are located either side of the centre console.
Direction indicators and hazard warning lamps
The direction indicator lamps are operated from a three position direction indicator switch on the left hand, steering
column stalk. The BCU only allows the lamps to work as direction indicators when the ignition switch is in position II.
The BCU also controls the lamps to operate as hazard warning lamps and as a visual warning for the anti-theft system,
in which cases all lamps flash simultaneously irrespective of the ignition switch position.
System control of the direction indicators and hazard warning lamps is provided by the BCU operating with the IDM
and two electronic relays located in the passenger compartment fuse box. The IDM and relays are integral parts of
the passenger compartment fuse box and cannot be serviced individually. The serial data bus is used for
communication of status and operation requests between the BCU, IDM and instrument pack.
The hazard warning lamps are operated from a latching pushbutton switch located on the fascia.
All direction indicator/ hazard warning lamp bulbs are rated at 5 Watts.

(Radio mode on) or CD-autochanger disc (in the CD mode). Scan (Mode dependent) manual or automatic selection
of band or track. RND random play, MODE/MUTE (mode dependent) when pressed the button allows manual
operation or alternate mode selections such as manual tuning, compact disk cue/review, tape forward/rewind modes.
Internal memory
An internal memory chip stores the station presets and security code, power is supplied internally to the chip via a
permanent power feed, supplied from the passenger compartment fuse box.
High line system radio cassette
The high line radio cassette is located in the center of the fascia and contains the radio and tape player. Two clips
(accessible through slots in the front of the unit) secure the unit. To remove the radio cassette unit the two clips must
be released with a special tool. The high line system can be controlled from the fascia mounted radio cassette, or from
remote radio control switches on the left hand side of the steering wheel. In vehicles fitted with radio headphone
amplifiers, the rear seat passengers can control their individual audio output using a headphone amplifier control
panel. The audio signal can be from the radio, cassette player or a CD-autochanger. A logic control circuit in the radio
cassette player controls the operation in the various control modes.
The radio cassette has a display screen, information shown includes current status, station (Radio mode) , CD-
autochanger track/disc status or status of headphone amplifier. Power for illumination on the radio cassette is supplied
from the passenger compartment fusebox. A main fuse is also located in the connector socket area on the back of
the radio cassette. When the radio cassette switch is on, power is made available via internal circuits to the radio
headphone amplifiers.
Security code function
A combination of buttons on the radio cassette are used to input and change security codes. Security codes make the
unit unusable if the unit is disconnected from the vehicle without deactivating the security code. The radio cassette
has an internal memory chip that stores the information, if the power is removed from the unit the chip will activate the
security code feature. For this reason the security code feature must be deactivated before the unit is removed or the
vehicles battery is disconnected.
