Event Notification Signal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Mariner and 2010 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The purpose of the deployment event notification feature is to provide other vehicle subsystems with information pertaining to restraint system deployment or fuel cutoff status. Signal communication between the RCM  and fuel pump control module allows the PCM to initiate fuel cut-off to disable the fuel system in the event of a crash.

The RCM  does not monitor the event notification signal circuit for faults and will not set  a DTC if a fault occurs.
