JBE: Junction Box electronics

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5, 2012 BMW X5, and 2011 BMW X5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The junction box electronics (JBE) activate the ultrasonic sensors to send the ultrasonic impulses. The JBE also receives the digital signals of the individual ultrasonic sensors. From the individual digital signals, the PDC control unit calculates the minimum distance between the ultrasonic sensor and the object. When an object is detected, an acoustic warning and a visual warning are given.
