When the heated seat button is pressed on the touchscreen interface, the APIM sends the request message to the FCIM over the I-CAN . When a heated seat request message has been received from the APIM, the FCIM sends the request message to the IPC over the I-CAN . The IPC sends the message to the BCM over the HS-CAN . The message is then sent to the HVAC module over the MS-CAN . Upon receiving the request, the HVAC module supplies voltage to the appropriate driver and/or passenger seat cushion and backrest heater mats.
