Delayed Accessory Power: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The Body Control Module (BCM) activates the accessory delay relay whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN or the ACC position, or when the ignition switch is changed from RUN or ACC to the OFF/LOCK position and the LH and RH front doors are closed. When energized, the accessory delay relay supplies voltage to the power window system.
The BCM will deactivate the delayed accessory feature when:
- the LH or RH front 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.
