Function requirements for ignition ON, general points 

Ignition ON, general points 

For ignition ON, the engine management 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) actuates the 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 passes the on-board electrical system voltage from "circuit 30" onto "circuit 15". If a voltage is present at 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" (dependent 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 management.

If a voltage is present at "circuit 87 M4", the engine management is switched on and an output stage driver in the ME-SFI [ME] control unit takes over actuation of the engine circuit 87 relay.

The ground connection "circuit 31" is made from the on-board electrical system battery (G1) over the ground point battery at the front right (W10) and a number of ground lines to the ground point for the electronics assemblies compartment on the left (W16/5).

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

Different characteristics maps for the engine management can be stored and activated with the correction programming in the ME-SFI [ME] control unit, such as:
