Normal Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The ignition switch receives fused battery voltage from Smart Junction Box (SJB) fuse 27 (20A) along circuit SPB27 (BU/RD), this voltage is then sent to the SJB and the Battery Junction Box (BJB) for various systems depending on the ignition switch position. The ignition switch has 4 possible positions:
- OFF, voltage is sent to the SJB for the key-in ignition system. Refer to INSTRUMENTATION, MESSAGE CENTER, AND WARNING CHIMES to diagnose any key-in ignition concerns.
- ACC, voltage is sent to the SJB run/accessory bus along circuit CDC33 (VT/GN).
- RUN, voltage is sent along circuit CE612 (GY/VT) to the:
- SJB run/start bus
- SJB internal microprocessor
- start diode
- BJB fuse 39 (5A)
- BJB fuse 45 (5A)
- START, voltage is sent to the SJB start bus along circuit CDC35 (BU/WH).
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse(s)
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Ignition switch
- SJB
