time the indicator is illuminated or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
The CTM provides chime service for all available features in the chime warning system. The CTM relies upon hard wired inputs from the driver
door ajar switch, the EMIC, the headlamp switch, and the key-in ignition switch (ignition switch) to provide chime service for all of the chime
warning system features. Upon receiving the proper inputs, the CTM activates the integral chime tone generator to provide the audible chime tone
to the vehicle operator. The chime tone generator in the CTM is capable of producing repeated chime tones at two different rates, slow or fast. The
slow chime rate is about 50 chime tones per minute, while the fast chime rate is about 180 chime tones per minute. The internal programming
of the CTM and the EMIC determines the priority of each chime tone request input that is received, as well as the rate and duration of each chime
tone that is to be generated.
The hard wired chime warning system inputs to the CTM and the EMIC, as well as other hard wired circuits for this system may be diagnosed and
tested using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for more information on the features
provided by the chime warning system.
