Body Control Module/Gateway Module (BCM/GWM) Assembly
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Jaguar XE and 2017 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The BCM/GWM assembly is attached to a bracket, which is attached to the lower a-pillar on the passenger side of the vehicle.
The BCM/GWM assembly contains software to control the following functions:
- Determine the condition of the battery
- Control the output from the generator using load management software
- Controls the ECO stop/start system using power management to inhibit unnecessary electrical loads.
The BCM/GWM assembly communicates with other system control modules on the HS CAN powertrain and chassis systems buses and the medium speed CAN Body and Comfort systems buses.
The BCM/GWM assembly communicates with the BMS control module, the QCCM, and the generator via a LIN bus.
