Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Chevrolet Malibu. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The body control module (BCM) controls the ignition main relay through the control circuit by applying voltage to the circuit. The power supply transformer samples the system voltage on the Ignition 1 voltage circuit from the ignition main relay. If the power supply transformer detects a fault in the circuit it will request the ECM to set the DTC and illuminate the MIL.
