Turn/Hazard On Tone
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Since the turn/hazard flasher is an electronic function of the Body Control Module (BCM), the on/off sound that used to be present with standard bi-metal flashers is no longer present. To provide an audible sound and indicate that the RH/LH TURN or HAZARD lamps are on, the IPC provides a tick-tock tone along with the visual turn signal indicators.
The turn/hazard on tone inputs are:
- Left turn indicator signal from the BCM to the IPC through the HS-CAN.
- Right turn indicator signal from the BCM to the IPC through the HS-CAN.
- Hazard signal from the BCM to the IPC through the HS-CAN.
