Delayed Accessory Power
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mercury Sable, 2008 Ford Taurus X, and 2008 Ford Taurus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
The Smart Junction Box (SJB) may also be identified as the Generic Electronic Module (GEM).
The SJB controls power to the power windows, the audio system and the power roof opening panel with the delayed accessory relay. The SJB activates the accessory delay relay whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN or the ACCESSORY position, or when the ignition switch is changed from RUN or ACCESSORY to the OFF/LOCK position and the LH and RH front doors are closed.
The SJB will deactivate the accessory delay feature when:
- the LF door is ajar and the ignition switch is in the OFF/LOCK or KEY-OUT position.
- the RF door is ajar and the ignition switch is in the OFF/LOCK or KEY-OUT position.
- ten minutes have elapsed since the ignition switch was changed from ACC or RUN to the OFF/LOCK position.
