Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
See Auto Stop-Start Indicator. REFER to: INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER (IPC) - SYSTEM OPERATION AND COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
If the stop-start standby indication message is missing for less than 5 seconds, the IPC defaults the auto stop-start warning indicator to its last indication state (on or off), based upon the last message received.
If the stop-start standby indication message is missing for 5 seconds or longer, the IPC defaults the stop-start indicator off.
