message, will illuminate the appropriate door ajar message in the driver information center (DIC) and also send a GMLAN message to the radio to
activate the door ajar audible warning when the following conditions are met:
*
The transmission is removed from PARK

illuminate the appropriate door ajar message in the driver information center (DIC) and also send a GMLAN message to the radio to activate the door
ajar audible warning when the following conditions are met:
