Brake System Displays

The IPC provides brake system messages for the following concerns and status:

• Low brake fluid level
• Parking brake applied status
• ABS concerns that display along with the brake warning indicator operation

When the parking brake is applied, the ABS module sends the parking brake status message to the BCM over the HS-CAN. The BCM sends the parking brake status message to the IPC over the MS-CAN to illuminate the brake warning indicator and turn on the parking brake applied message in the message center.

When a low brake fluid level condition exists, the BCM sends the brake fluid level low message request to the IPC over the MS-CAN to illuminate the brake warning indicator and turn on the brake fluid level low message in the message center.

When an ABS concern exists, the ABS module sends the brake (red) warning indicator request message to the BCM. The BCM in turn sends the brake (red) warning indicator request message to the IPC to illuminate the ABS warning indicator, brake warning indicator and to turn on the traction control off message in the message center.
