Multiplex Integrated Control System Sleep and Wake-Up Mode Test

Shift to the sleep mode:Close all doors. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode, then open and close the driver's door. If the body control module receives no signals from the inputs listed below, it will go into sleep mode in less than 40 seconds.

2. Confirm sleep mode:

NOTE: Check the official Acura service website for more service information about parasitic draw at the 12 volt battery. Check the parasitic draw at the 12 volt battery while in sleep mode; amperage should drop in less than a minute. Shift to wake-up mode: When turning the vehicle to the ON mode, the body control module, the gauge control module, the power window master switch, and the PCM will wake-up at the same time without "talking" to each other through the communication lines. When any switch in the multiplex integrated control system is turned on, it wakes up its related control unit which, in turn, wakes up the other units. After confirming the sleep mode, look in the following table for the switch most related to the problem. Operate that switch and see if its control unit wakes up.
NOTE: If any control unit is faulty and does not wake up, several circuits in the system malfunction at the same time. Below is a list of the switches and input signals that wake them up.
