Power Child Lock-Switch Inhibit And Low Key Fob 

The IPC provides a power child lock warning to inform the driver the child lock feature did not function properly. The power child lock feature is activated through the rear window lockout switch on the driver side master window control switch.

The IPC provides a switch inhibit warning to notify the driver that some switches have been purposely inhibited and are inoperative. For security purposes, interior switches are inhibited by the BCM 20 seconds after the vehicle is electronically locked and prevents someone from using a stick (or other object) through an open window and activating the switch.

The IPC provides a low key fob battery warning to alert the driver the key fob battery needs to be replaced. The low key fob battery warning is not displayed in RUN or START modes if the power child lock warning is active to prevent the BCM from cycling between the two warnings, causing the chime associated with the power child lock warning from repeatedly sounding every 4 seconds.

Powertrain Cooling 

On vehicles equipped with a Gasoline Turbo Direct Injection (GTDI) engine, the IPC provides a message to inform the driver that vehicle performance is reduced to allow the engine to cool. This feature is part of the smart cooling function in the PCM and provides powertrain cooling protection under high ambient temperature conditions.
