Principles of Operation
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATIONNOTE: The smart junction box (SJB) is also known as the generic electronic module (GEM).
The SJB monitors the multifunction switch position by sending multiple voltage reference signals to the multifunction switch. When the multifunction switch is in the LH or RH TURN positions, or the hazard flasher lamp switch is engaged, that input signal is routed to ground.
When the SJB receives a request for a turn signal or hazard lamps, the SJB supplies voltage to the appropriate turn lamps.
