Module Network Input Messages - ABS Module

Broadcast Message	Originating Module	Message Purpose
Accelerator pedal position	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. The ABS module uses accelerator pedal position information for correct operation of the traction control, ESC, RSC and hill start assist features.
Ambient Air Temperature	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current ambient air temperature. The ABS module uses this information for calculations in determining the operational status of the various stability control systems and features.
AWD lock status	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current AWD lock status; OK, opened by command, inactive, fault, warning, disabled, fully locked by command, torque limited by command, under external torque control or undefined. The ABS module uses this information for calculations in the operation of the various stability control systems and features.
AWD service required	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current AWD service required indicator; on or off. The ABS module uses this information for calculations in the operation of the various stability control systems and features.
Brake on-off switch	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the driver has pressed the brake pedal. This message is also used by the ABS module to check the brake pressure sensor located inside the HCU.
Clutch pedal position	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the driver has pressed the clutch pedal.
Cruise control mode	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current cruise control system mode; not active, keeping speed, accelerating, decelerating, resuming high, resuming low, tap up waiting or tap down waiting.
Cruise control override	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the PCM has overridden the cruise control request. When the ABS module receives this message, any other cruise control messages are ignored until the "not overridden" message is received.
Cruise control status	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the current cruise control system status; off, denied, standby denied, standby, active que assist or active.
Door ajar status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current door ajar statuses; driver front and rear, passenger front and rear. The ABS module resets the parameters used for the ESC and RSC when a door is opened and closed.
Engine coolant temperature	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current engine coolant temperature. This information is used for fault monitoring.
Engine RPM data	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current engine speed in RPM.
Engine status	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current status of the engine; off, ready, cranking, running, stalled, after-run, or shutdown.
Gear lever position	PCM	This message is first sent to the PCM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current driver selected gear. The hill start assist feature works in forward and reverse gears. ESC and RSC do not operate when the transmission is in REVERSE.
Hood ajar status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current hood ajar status. The ABS module resets the parameters used for the ESC and RSC when the hood is opened and closed.
Ignition key type	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current ignition key type; MyKey or Standard Key. The ABS module may have operating mode restrictions depending on the type of ignition key used.
Ignition status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current ignition status; off, accessory, run, start, unknown or invalid.
Key in ignition status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current key in ignition status; in or out.
Liftgate ajar status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current liftgate ajar status. The ABS module resets the parameters used for the ESC and RSC when the liftgate is opened and closed.
Odometer master value	IPC	This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current odometer mileage.
Parking brake status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current parking brake status: applied or released.
PATS start request target command	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message provides the ABS module with the challenge and password for anti-theft vehicle starting. During vehicle starting, the PCM and the ABS module exchange information to make sure the vehicle is being started correctly.
PATS start request target status	PCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current anti-theft start request status; disabled, enabled motive start, enabled non-motive start, disabled reset.
RCM serial number	RCM	The ABS module stores the RCM serial number and verifies the serial number when the vehicle is started or the ignition is set to run or accessory. Over time, the ABS module learns the offset of the sensors inside the RCM. When a new serial number is found and the IVD Initialization procedure is carried out using a scan tool, the ABS module resets the offset number learned for ESC and RSC.
Steering pinion angle	PSCM	The ABS module uses steering angle information for ESC and RSC operation. This message provides the ABS with the current steering wheel angle and direction of rotation.
Stoplamp status	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current stoplamp status. This information is used for fault monitoring.
Vehicle configuration data	BCM	This message is first sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message provides the ABS module with the current optional and configured items such as, tire size, axle ratio, manual or automatic transaxle, keyless entry, and VIN.
Vehicle stability control data	RCM	This message provides the ABS module with the following stability control information; longitudinal acceleration, lateral acceleration, yaw rate and roll rate. The ABS module uses this information to help maintain vehicle stability during maneuvers.
