System STATES IN LEARNT MODE

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

In learnt mode, the BES System can be set in 6 different sates, depending on the status of the terminals and Engine status:

ENGINE STATUS REFERENCE CHART

System State Terminal Status Engine status
1. OFF - Locked OFF Stopped
2. OFF - Unlocked OFF Stopped
3. ACC ACC Stopped
4. IGN IGN1, IGN2, ACC Stopped
5. Start IGN1, Start Cranking
6. IGN - Engine IGN1, IGN2, ACC Running (means "self-running")

Referring to the terminals, the system states described in the table above are same as those one found in a system based on a mechanical ignition switch.

The one of distinction with Mechanical-Ignition-Switch based system is that the BES system allows specific transition from (OFF) to (START) without going through (ACC) and (IGN) states.
