Junction Box Module

The CarCoding scan map holds 10 definitions for this module type, spread across 6 make groups and appearing under 10 different names.

What does this module do?

A smart junction box replaces conventional fuses and relays with semiconductor switches and measures the current of each output. Since power distribution happens here, a problem in this module can affect many seemingly unrelated modules at once.

What do the makes call this module?

The name of a module doing the same job changes from make to make. The names below are the actual definition names used under this type in the CarCoding scan map (10 distinct names):

FEM (Front Electronic Module)784
Intelligent power distribution module (IPDM)74D
REM (Rear Electronic Module)771
SJB (Smart Junction Box)771
Service Box (BSE)759
Service Box (BSS)754

Which makes define it?

The map holds 10 definitions for this type, spread across 6 make groups:

Address and protocol

Every definition in the map is marked as UDS. 9 of the addresses are 11-bit CAN identifiers (three digits, such as 7E0) and 1 are 29-bit extended identifiers (such as 18DA10F1). The most frequent addresses for this type are: 74D (2), 771 (2), 18DA42F2 (1), 700 (1).

An address being defined in the map does not mean the module can be read on every vehicle. Reaching modules outside the mandatory OBD-II emissions channel depends on the manufacturer protocol and on the vehicle itself.

Junction Box Module on your own vehicle

With an ELM327-based BLE OBD2 adapter, CarCoding scans the vehicle’s modules, reads fault codes from those it can reach and explains every code in plain language. Which modules are reachable depends on the make and on the vehicle. The app is free to download.

Some advanced features require an in-app purchase.

Data source: the CarCoding ECU scan map (ecuDatabase.ts). The addresses and names in the table are definitions from the map; they can differ depending on the hardware and software version in your vehicle.
