Control Module: General

The DICE control module is located above the main relay board (LHD) and adjacent to the main relay board (RHD). It is connected to the system components with a 70-pin connector.

As the central unit in the DICE system, the control module checks and controls the system components and functions as follows:

• DICE - controls the power supply to the various system functions. Power is supplied directly via the control module and via external relays that are grounded through the control module.
• DICE - is connected to the instrument bus (I-BUS) and receives, processes and transmits information (communicates) via the bus to/from other systems (control modules) connected to the bus. See BUS COMMUNICATION 
• DICE - has its own diagnostics function and diagnostic trouble codes are set when faults occur.
• DICE - is programmable. Certain functions can be programmed to meet with laws, market demands, customer requirements and the car's equipment. See MENU "PROGRAMMING"
