Active Guidelines

NOTE: If the battery has been disconnected or discharged, or a module is disconnected or replaced, the active guidelines may be inoperative until the vehicle is driven on a flat and smooth road at 32 km/h (20 mph) or more, with hands placed loosely on the steering wheel and minimal steering correction for approximately 30 seconds.

If the guidelines are remain inoperative, it may be necessary to disconnect the battery for 5 minutes with the driver's door open, then drive the vehicle for 5 miles in normal city driving before performing the procedure described above.

The rear parking aid camera active guidelines feature displays dynamic guidelines that correspond to the projected path of the vehicle travel based on the current steering angle. Several modules are involved in generating the steering angle data used to support the active guidelines. The PSCM monitors the current steering angle and sends the steering angle data message to the ABS module via the HS-CAN2. The ABS module uses this message from the PSCM to generate the steering angle message that is sent to the BCM via the HS-CAN1 and HS-CAN2, with the GWM acting as the gateway. The BCM then sends the steering angle data to the rear parking aid camera via the LIN circuit. The camera uses this data to generate the active guidelines over the video image.

If the luggage compartment lid is open or the steering wheel is in the straight-ahead position, the active guidelines are not shown.
