System STATES In LEARNT MODE

2015 Kia Soul Base, Automatic TransSECTION System STATES In LEARNT MODE

In learnt mode, the BES System can be set in 6 different sates, depending on the status of the terminals, ESCL and Engine status:

System State Terminal Status ESCL Status Engine status
1. OFF - Locked OFF Locked Stopped
2. OFF - Unlocked OFF Unlocked Stopped
3. ACC ACC Unlocked Stopped
4. IGN IGN1, IGN2, ACC Unlocked Stopped
5. Start IGN1, Start Unlocked Cranking
6. IGN - Engine IGN1, IGN2, ACC Unlocked Running
(means "self-running")

Referring to the terminals, the system states described in the table above are same as those one found in a system based on a mechanical ignition switch. The one of distinction with Mechanical-Ignition-Switch based system is that the BES system allows specific transition from [OFF] to [START] without going through [ACC] and [IGN] states.
