-
Power Liftgate Module (PLG)
-
Audio System
-
Adjustable Pedals Module (APM)
-
Side Impact Airbag Control (Left & Right) Modules (SIACM)
-
Memory Seat/Mirror Module (MSMM)
-
RKE/thatcham Alarm Module (Export)
-
Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM)
The BCM is operational when battery power is supplied to the module.
The Body Control Module provides the following features:
-
Power Door Locks
-
Automatic Door Lock
-
Door Lock Inhibit
-
Central Locking (with VTSS Only)
-
Battery Protection - The BCM will automatically turn off all exterior lamps after 3 minutes and all interior lamps after 15 minutes after the
ignition is turned off, if they are not turned off by the driver.
-
Chime Driver
-
Compass/Minitrip Support
-
Interior Lighting (Courtesy/Reading Lamps)
-
BCM Diagnostic Reporting
-
Electronic Liftgate Release (with Power Door Locks)
-
Exterior Lighting
-
Headlamp Time Delay (with/without Autoheadlamps)
-
Automatic Headlamps (with electrochromatic mirror)
-
Illuminated Entry
-
Fade to Off - This feature dims the interior lighting (courtesy lamps) gradually if the BCM does not receive any new inputs that would cause the
interior lamps to remain on.
-
PWM Instrument Panel Dimming
-
Door Lock Inhibit - This feature disables the door lock functions if the key is in the ignition and either front door is ajar. Pressing the RKE
lock/unlock button under these conditions, result in normal lock/unlock activation.
-
Power Sliding Door Switch Inputs - The BCM has 4 switch inputs for the power sliding door feature. Located in the overhead console are the Left
and Right side sliding door switches to activate either or both sliding doors under the proper conditions. Also there are B-Pillar switches located
on the Left and Right B-pillar posts.
-
Power Liftgate Switch Input - The BCM has 1 liftgate switch input located in the overhead console.
-
Power Lockout Switch Input - The BCM has 1 Lockout switch that when enabled will disable the B-Pillar sliding door switches from activating
either sliding door when depressed. When replacing a body control module there are 2 modules available, a Base and a Midline. The Midline
controller is used on vehicles that have Power Door Locks. If a vehicle is equipped with the Vehicle Theft Security System, the midline controller
becomes a premium when the theft feature is enabled.
NOTE: Do not swap the Body Control Module between vehicles or Body Control Modules off the shelf.
Engineering does not recommend that service, dealers or the plant swap Body Control Modules (BCM) between vehicles or off the shelf. The BCM
has internal diagnostic capability that assists in diagnosing the system. When an "Open" or a "Short" circuit exists, the diagnostic tool can be used to
read the BCM codes. The codes are very descriptive in identifying the appropriate feature that has faulted. The BCM also learns what features are on
the vehicle and if modules are swapped the BCM could set false DTCs based on what it learned.
Chime Warning System
CHIME WARNING SYSTEM
The BCM monitors the door/liftgate ajar switches, multifunction switches, headlight switch, ignition switch, PCI bus, and the diagnostic tool to
perform various chime operations. The BCM uses a low-side driver to control the chime located in the cluster.
The chime system provides the Driver with warning chimes for:
-
Seat belt
-
Exterior lights on
-
Key-in Ignition
-
Key-in Accessory
-
Engine temperature critical
-
Low washer fluid
-
Turn signals on
