IPC Prove-Out
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The IPC and other vehicle modules carry out a display prove-out to verify all module controlled warning/indicator lamps and monitored systems are functioning correctly within the IPC . The IPC and other modules, such as the Restraints Control Module (RCM), provide a timed prove-out while other indicators illuminate until engine start up.
