Transmission Not In Park Warning Chime

The IPC provides a transmission not in park warning chime that sounds along with the transmission not in park message center warning message to inform the driver the vehicle is not in PARK (P). The IPC displays the shift to park message and the PRNDL not in park warning chime sounds three 0.5-second chime tones if the selector lever is not in PARK (P), the ignition is OFF and the driver door is open or ajar.

For vehicles equipped with a gearshift lever, the IPC requires the transmission gear display, transport mode, vehicle speed, driver door ajar and ignition status to control the transmission not in park warning chime.

For vehicles equipped with a rotary shifter, the IPC requires the transmission gear status, driver door ajar status, ignition status and GSM gear message request messages to control the transmission not in park warning chime.

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

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

The GWM receives the driver door ajar status, ignition status and transport mode messages from the BCM over the HS-CAN1.

The GWM receives the GSM gear message request from the GSM over the HS-CAN2.

When a chime request is received, the IPC sends the IPC chime request message to the ACM or DSP (if equipped) to sound the chime.
