Terminal control
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2016 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2015 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2014 MINI Cooper Countryman, 2013 MINI Cooper, and 2012 MINI Cooper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The CAS activates the following terminals via the START-STOP unit as follows:
- Terminal R
To maintain the starting capability of the vehicle, the CAS switches terminal R off automatically. If the driver's door is opened and closed and no seat occupancy is detected, terminal R will be switched off after 8 minutes.
- Terminal 15
The CAS controls terminal 15 (= active positive) for all electrical systems.
- Wake-up line (terminal 15 wake up)
Switching on terminal 15 activates (wakens) the control units on the PT-CAN via the wake-up line.
- Terminal 50L
During the starting operation, terminal 50L is connected to the starter.
- Switched terminal 30g
Some consumers (e.g. SHD, DSC) are attached to terminal 30. Terminal 30 is switched by the CAS. Shutting down the consumers on terminal 30g reduces the off-load current.
