STOP AND START SYSTEM Backup Boost Converter Circuit

DTC Code DTC Name
Backup Boost Converter Circuit

DESCRIPTION

A backup boost converter is built into the engine stop and start ECU. The backup boost converter helps maintain the power source voltage when the engine is restarted by stop and start control.

The backup boost converter prevents various functions such as the audio and visual system from malfunctioning if the power source voltage drops due to the battery voltage dropping when the engine is restarted by stop and start control. If any DTCs are output, troubleshoot the DTCs first.

Tip:

A relay function and fuse function are provided in the backup boost converter.

If there is a malfunction in any of the electrical system circuits connected to the backup boost converter, the fuse and relay functions shut off the malfunctioning circuit to protect other circuits (circuit will remain shut off until next trip).

When an electrical system circuit is shut off, power to the circuit is cut off, causing any systems connected to the circuit to be disabled.

The fuse function is reset*1 when the ignition switch is turned off. If the malfunction still exists in the electrical system circuit that has been shut off by the relay function, it will be shut off again by the relay and fuse functions the next time the ignition switch is turned to ON.

*1: A semiconductor fuse self resets according to electric signal.

The backup boost converter supplies power to:

  • Main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU)

  • Vehicle stability control system

  • Power steering system

  • Meter/gauge system

  • Audio and visual system

  • Automatic air conditioning system
