WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2003 GMC Yukon XL, 2003 GMC Yukon, 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2003 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2003 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The chime producer activates the door ajar audible warning as requested by the IPC. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the chime producer indicating the chime duration, 4 pulses. The door ajar warning sounds and the appropriate DOOR AJAR indicator illuminates in the Driver Information Center when the following occurs:

The body control module (BCM) determines that a door; driver door, passenger door, left rear door, right rear door, is open, signal is low. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM indicating the door ajar status.
The vehicle is not in park. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM indicating the gear position.
The vehicle speed is greater than 8.05 km/h (5 mph). The IPC uses the vehicle speed signal circuit, 4000 pulses/mile, from the PCM in order to calculate the vehicle speed.
