Function requirements for ignition ON, general points 

Ignition ON, general points 

For ignition ON, the engine management in the CDI control unit (N3/9) 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) sends the on-board electrical system voltage for "circuit 30" to "circuit 15" over the interior CAN (CAN B), the SAM control unit (N10) and circuit 15 relay (F58kR).

If a voltage is present at the CDI control unit at "circuit 15", the engine circuit relay 87M (F58kN) is actuated by means of a ground signal. This makes the relay close its power contact and, in accordance with the relevant electrical fuses, the voltage from "circuit 30" is passed on to the CDI control unit and the relevant engine management sensors and actuators as "circuit 87".

If a voltage is present at "circuit 87", the engine management is switched on and an output stage driver in the CDI control unit takes over further actuation of the circuit relay 87M.

Ground connection "circuit 31" takes place by the on-board electrical system battery (G1) over the on-board electrical system battery ground point at the front right (W10) and over a number of ground lines to the ground point on the front right for the lamp unit (W2).

When the engine management is switched on, the CDI control unit carries out the following functions:
