Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Delayed Accessory Power
The smart junction box (SJB) controls power to the power windows, the audio system, and the power roof opening panel with the delayed accessory relay. The SJB activates the delayed accessory relay whenever the ignition switch is in the RUN or the ACCESSORY position, or when the ignition switch is changed from RUN or ACCESSORY to the OFF/LOCK position and the LH and RH front doors are closed.
The SJB will deactivate the delayed accessory feature when:
- the LF door is ajar and the ignition switch is in the off/lock or key-out position.
- the RF door is ajar and the ignition switch is in the off/lock or key-out position.
- 10 minutes have elapsed since the ignition switch was changed from ACC or RUN to the off/lock position.
