Abstract
When an ignition switch is off, even if a master CPU ( ) receives a predetermined command signal, the master CPU ( ) does not immediately transmit an activating signal to slave CPUs ( ). At this time, power necessary for an electronic control unit ( ) is being supplied from a standby-current supplying converter ( ). The master CPU ( ) transmits an activating request signal to a controller ( ) to activate a normal supplying converter ( ). The controller ( ), after activating the normal supplying converter ( ), transmits an activating completion signal to the master CPU ( ). For the first time upon receipt of this activating completion signal, the master CPU ( ) transmits the activating signal to the slave CPUs ( ). Consequently, power is supplied from the normal supplying converter ( ) to all the electronic control units ( to ).
