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:

    • Intelligent Key is in the detection area of the inside key antenna.

    • Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch.

  • The push-button ignition switch operation is input to BCM as a signal. BCM changes the power supply position according to the status of the push-button ignition switch and operates the following relays to supply power to each power circuit:

    • Ignition relay-1 (IPDM E/R)

    • Ignition relay-2 [Fuse block (J/B)]

    • Accessory relay-1 [Fuse block (J/B)]

    • Front blower motor relay [Fuse block (J/B)]

      NOTE:

      The engine switch operation changes due to the conditions of brake pedal, selector lever and Nissan Murano vehicle speed.

  • The power supply position can be confirmed with the lighting of the indicators in the push-button ignition switch.

IGNITION BATTERY SAVER SYSTEM

When all the following conditions are met for a period of time, the battery saver system will turn off the power supply (push-button ignition switch ON/ACC → OFF) to prevent battery discharge:

  • Push-button ignition switch is in ACC or ON

  • Turn signal lamp is not in operation

  • Selector lever is in the P (park) position

Reset Condition of Ignition Battery Saver System

If any of the following conditions are met, the battery saver system is released:

  • Push-button ignition switch is not in ACC or ON

  • Turn signal lamp is in operation

  • Selector lever is not in the P (park) position

NOTE:

The ignition battery saver system can be temporarily disabled, without using CONSULT, to prevent it from functioning when performing trouble diagnosis. Refer to Work Procedure.

POWER SUPPLY POSITION CHANGE TABLE BY PUSH-BUTTON IGNITION SWITCH OPERATION

The power supply position changing operation can be performed with the following operations:

NOTE:

  • When an Intelligent Key is within the detection area of inside key antenna and when Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch, it is equivalent to the operations below.

  • When starting the engine, the BCM monitors under the engine start conditions:

    • Brake pedal operating condition

    • Selector lever position

    • Nissan Murano Vehicle speed
