communicates this status to the instrument panel cluster (IPC) via a class 2 message. The IPC, upon receipt of this class 2 message, will illuminate the
appropriate ajar message in the driver information center (DIC) and also send a class 2 message to the radio to activate the door ajar audible warning
when the following conditions are met:
-
The transmission is removed from PARK.
-
The vehicle speed is greater then 8.05 km/h (5 mph).
