 PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS PFP:00011
A
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” EKS00EOD

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along B
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front C
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING: D
● To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer. E
● Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section. F
● Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
G

 IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)

IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)

PFP:284B7 A
System Description EKS00EOH

● IPDM E/R (Intelligent Power Distribution Module Engine Room) integrates the relay box and fuse block
B
which were originally placed in engine compartment. It controls integrated relays via IPDM E/R control cir-
cuits.
● IPDM E/R-integrated control circuits perform ON-OFF operation of relays, CAN communication control,
etc. C
● It controls operation of each electrical component via ECM, BCM and CAN communication lines.
CAUTION:
None of the IPDM E/R integrated relays can be removed. D

SYSTEMS CONTROLLED BY IPDM E/R

1. Lamp control E
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the following lamps:
● Headlamps (High, Low)

● Parking lamps F
● Daytime light relay control (Canada only)

● Tail and license plate lamps

● Front fog lamps G

2. Daytime light relay control (Canada only)
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the daytime light relay.
3. Wiper control H
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the front wipers.
4. Rear window defogger relay control (crew cab only)
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the rear window defogger I
relay.
5. A/C compressor control
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the A/C compressor J
(magnetic clutch).
6. Starter control
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the starter relay. PG
7. Cooling fan control (with VQ40DE)
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the ECM and controls the cooling fan relays.
8. Horn control L
Using CAN communication lines, it receives signals from the BCM and controls the horn relay.
CAN COMMUNICATION LINE CONTROL
With CAN communication, by connecting each control unit using two communication lines (CAN L-line, CAN M
H-line), it is possible to transmit a maximum amount of information with minimum wiring. Each control unit can
transmit and receive data, and reads necessary information only.
1. Fail-safe control
● When CAN communication with other control units is impossible, IPDM E/R performs fail-safe control.
After CAN communication returns to normal operation, it also returns to normal control.
● Operation of control parts by IPDM E/R during fail-safe mode is as follows:

Controlled system Fail-safe mode

● With the ignition switch ON, the headlamp (low) is ON.
Headlamp
● With the ignition switch OFF, the headlamp (low) is OFF.
● With the ignition switch ON, the tail lamp relay is ON.
Tail, license plate and parking lamps
● With the ignition switch OFF, the tail lamp relay is OFF.
● With the ignition switch ON, the cooling fan HIGH operates.
Cooling fan
● With the ignition switch OFF, the cooling fan stops.

Revision: November 2005 PG-17 2005 Frontier

 IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)

Controlled system Fail-safe mode

Until the ignition switch is turned off, the front wiper LOW and HIGH remains in the same
Front wiper
status it was in just before fail−safe control was initiated.
Rear window defogger Rear window defogger relay OFF
A/C compressor A/C compressor OFF
Front fog lamps Front fog lamp relay OFF

IPDM E/R STATUS CONTROL

In order to save power, IPDM E/R switches status by itself based on each operating condition.
1. CAN communication status
● CAN communication is normally performed with other control units.

● Individual unit control by IPDM E/R is normally performed.

● When sleep request signal is received from BCM, mode is switched to sleep waiting status.

2. Sleep waiting status

● Process to stop CAN communication is activated.

● All systems controlled by IPDM E/R are stopped. When 3 seconds have elapsed after CAN communi-
cation with other control units is stopped, mode switches to sleep status.
3. Sleep status
● IPDM E/R operates in low current-consumption mode.

● CAN communication is stopped.

● When a change in CAN communication signal is detected, mode switches to CAN communication sta-
tus.
● When a change in ignition switch signal is detected, mode switches to CAN communication status.

CAN Communication System Description EKS00EOI

Refer to LAN-22, "CAN COMMUNICATION" .

Function of Detecting Ignition Relay Malfunction EKS00EOJ

● When the integrated ignition relay is stuck in a "closed contact" position and cannot be turned OFF, IPDM
E/R turns ON tail and parking lamps for 10 minutes to indicate IPDM E/R malfunction.
● When the state of the integrated ignition relay does not agree with the state of the ignition switch signal
received via CAN communication, the IPDM E/R activates the tail lamp relay.
Ignition switch signal Ignition relay status Tail lamp relay

Auto Active Test EKS00EOL

DESCRIPTION
● In auto active test mode, operation inspection can be performed when IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to
the following systems:
– Rear window defogger
– Front wipers
– Tail, license plate, front fog, and parking lamps
– Headlamps (High, Low)
– A/C compressor (magnetic clutch)
– Cooling fan (with VQ40DE)
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Close hood and front door RH, and lift wiper arms away from windshield (to prevent glass damage by
wiper operation).
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield beforehand.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn ignition
switch OFF.
4. Turn ignition switch ON within 10 seconds after ignition switch OFF.
5. When auto active test mode is actuated, horn chirps once.

Concept of Auto Active Test J

● IPDM E/R actuates auto active test mode when it receives door switch signal from BCM via CAN commu-
nication line. Therefore, when auto active test mode is activated successfully, CAN communication
between IPDM E/R and BCM is normal.
PG
● If any of the systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated, possible cause can be easily diagnosed
using auto active test.
