Keep Alive Memory (KAM)

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The PCM stores information in KAM (a memory integrated circuit chip) about vehicle operating conditions and then uses this information to compensate for component variability. KAM remains powered when the ignition switch is off so that this information is not lost.
