Ignition-Engine On Warning Chime

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford EcoSport. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The ignition-engine on chime informs the driver they are exiting the vehicle when the ignition has been left on (engine off) or the engine is running. When the driver exits the vehicle with the ignition on or with the engine running, the ignition-engine on warning chime sounds five 1-second chime tones. The IPC uses driver door ajar status, transmission gear display, power pack status and vehicle speed messaged inputs to control the ignition-engine on warning chime.

The IPC receives all required messages from the GWM over the HS-CAN3.

The GWM receives the driver door ajar status message from the BCM over the HS-CAN1.

The GWM receives the transmission gear display, power pack status and vehicle speed messages from the PCM over the HS-CAN1.

If not equipped with the base AM/FM audio system and a chime request is received, the IPC sends the IPC chime request message to the ACM or the DSP (Harmon audio system only) to sound the chime through the front speakers.
