Driver and Passenger Door Ajar Operation
The rear fuse block receives a discrete input from the respective jamb switch to indicate the status of the door. The rear fuse block then communicates this status to the driver information center and also send a serial data 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 km/h (5 mph). |
Liftgate Ajar Operation
The instrument panel cluster illuminates the door ajar icon when the rear fuse block detects that the liftgate is ajar or open. The IPC receives a serial data message from the rear fuse block requesting illumination. If the vehicle is in the forward or
reverse gear position, the rear fuse block activates an audible warning.
