Ignition ON, function - GF07.10-P-1000MMW

ENGINE 276.9 in MODEL 212.095 as of model year 2014 

Function requirements for ignition ON, general points 

Ignition ON, general points 

With ignition ON, the engine timing in the ME-SFI [ME] control unit (N3/10) is switched on and the engine prepared for starting.

Function sequence for ignition ON 

When the ignition is switched on, the electronic ignition lock control unit (N73) operating via the interior CAN (CAN B) and the front SAM control unit with fuse and relay module (N10/1) switches on the engine compartment circuit 15 relay (N10/1kJ). The signal "circuit 15 ON" is sent redundantly via the chassis CAN 1 (CAN E1) to the ME-SFI [ME] control unit. The circuit 15 relay conducts the on-board voltage from "circuit 30" to "circuit 15". If a voltage is present on the ME-SFI [ME] control unit at "circuit 15", engine circuit 87 relay (N10/1kN) is actuated by means of a ground signal. This causes the relay to close its power contact and the voltage is forwarded from "circuit 30" (depending on the respective fuses) as "circuit 87 M4" to the ME-SFI [ME] control unit and as "circuit 87 M1/2/3" to the respective sensors and actuators of the engine timing. If a voltage is present at "circuit 87 M4", the engine timing is switched on and an output stage driver in the ME-SFI [ME] control unit takes over further actuation of the engine circuit 87 relay. The ground connection "circuit 31" takes place from the on-board electrical system battery at the rear (G1/11) via the rear ground point on the right (W8/8) and over a number of ground lines to the ground point for the electronics assemblies compartment on the left (W16/5).

When engine timing is switched on, the ME-SFI [ME] control unit carries out the following functions:

The throttle valve actuator (M16/6) checks its return spring (over the position of the throttle valve), if necessary performs an actuator position adaptation and sends feedback to the ME-SFI [ME] control unit

Different characteristics maps for the engine timing can be stored and activated with the software updating in the ME-SFI [ME] control unit, such as.
