Power Outlets Description and Operation
System Description
The AC/DC power outlet system consists of the following components:
*
The PWR OUTLET fuse
*
The accessory AC/DC power outlet control module
*
The 120-volt power receptacle
System Operation
The accessory AC/DC power control module converts the 12-volt DC input voltage to 120 AC volts at the 120-volt power receptacle. The accessory
AC/DC power control module provides 150 watts of power. The 120-volt power receptacle is located on the right rear interior trim panel. The accessory
AC/DC power control module is located behind the right rear trim panel.
Circuit Operation
Battery voltage is supplied to the accessory AC/DC power control module from the 25-amp PWR OUTLET fuse located in the underhood fuse block.
The accessory AC/DC power control module is grounded directly to the right rear D-pillar. When the ignition is turned ON, ignition voltage is supplied
to the 120-volt power receptacle using the ignition 3 voltage circuit. When a 120-volt AC powered device is plugged into the 120-volt power receptacle,
with the ignition ON, the normally open plug inserted switch, located internally in the 120-volt power receptacle, closes. The accessory AC/DC power
control module detects an ignition voltage signal on the 120 VAC Inverter control circuit and the accessory AC/DC power control module enables the
120 AC volts to the 120-volt power receptacle.
