Brake System Messages 

The IPC provides brake system displays for the following concerns and status:

• Low brake fluid level
• Parking brake status and faults
• ABS concerns

When the parking brake is applied, the ABS module sends the parking brake message request to the GWM over the HS-CAN1. The GWM gateways the message to the IPC over the HS-CAN3 to illuminate the brake warning indicator and display the parking brake applied message in the message center.

When a low brake fluid level condition exists, the BCM sends the brake fluid level low message request to the GWM over the HS-CAN1.

Lane Keeping System Messages 

The lane keeping system combines the lane keeping alert and lane keeping aid systems. The lane keeping alert system alerts the driver of unintentional drifting outside of the lane and the lane keeping aid system corrects the vehicle steering to keep the vehicle in the center of the lane. The IPC provides a lane keeping display as an overhead view of the vehicle in the middle of a lane with right and left lane markers to indicate the vehicle position with relation to the lane markings as well as overlay or popup messages to alert the driver when they are drifting out of their lane. The lane markers change color to indicate the condition associated with a specific condition and action or warning as controlled by the lane keeping system. When the lane keeping system is turned off, the IPC turns off the lane keeping system display.

The IPC receives both the lane keeping system status display message and the lane keeping system hands off display from the GWM over the HS-CAN3.

The GWM receives the lane keeping system status display message and the Lane keeping system hands off display from the IPMA over the HS-CAN2.

MyKey® Function Messages 

The IPC provides message center displays for the MyKey® feature. MyKey® displays are controlled through the IPC software based on the MyKey® settings configured through the message center and the type of key in use (MyKey® or administrator key). The MyKey® function also uses other messages received by the IPC for other indications such as vehicle speed for speed limiter displays.

Parking Aid System Message 

The IPC provides messages to indicate the status of the parking aid system. The IPC receives the parking aid status messages from the GWM over the HS-CAN3. The GWM receives the parking aid status messages from the PAM over the HS-CAN1.

Passive Entry, Push Button Start And Immobilizer System Messages 

The IPC provides passive entry, push button start and immobilizer system message center displays to indicate any of the following:

• The key is left in the vehicle
• No key is detected

Power Child Lock-Switch Inhibit And Low Key Fob Messages 

The IPC provides a power child lock warning to inform the driver the child lock feature did not function properly. The power child lock feature is activated through the rear window lockout switch on the driver side master window control switch.

The IPC provides a switch inhibit warning to notify the driver that some switches have been purposely inhibited and are inoperative. For security purposes, interior switches are inhibited by the BCM 20 seconds after the vehicle is electronically locked and prevents someone from using a stick (or other object) through an open window and activating the switch.

The IPC provides a low key fob battery warning to alert the driver the key fob battery needs to be replaced. The low key fob battery warning is not displayed in RUN or START modes if the power child lock warning is active to prevent BCM from cycling between the two warnings, causing the chime associated with the power child lock warning from repeatedly sounding every 4 seconds.

Powertrain Cooling Message 

On vehicles equipped with a Gasoline Turbo Direct Injection (GTDI) engine, the IPC provides a message to inform the driver that the vehicle performance is reduced to allow the engine to cool. This feature is part of the smart cooling function in the PCM and provides powertrain cooling protection under high ambient temperature conditions.

The IPC receives the powertrain cooling message request from the GWM over the HS-CAN3. The GWM receives the powertrain cooling message request from the PCM over the HS-CAN1.

Remote Start Messages 

The IPC provides remote start messages to inform the driver that the vehicle is in the remote start active state and how to change the state to a drivable state.

The IPC receives the remote start status message from the GWM over the HS-CAN3. The GWM receives the remote start status message from the BCM over the HS-CAN1.

Shift To Park Message 

The IPC provides a shift to park message to inform the driver the vehicle is not in PARK (P) under 2 sets of conditions. First, the IPC displays the shift to park message if the vehicle is not in PARK (P), the ignition is OFF and the driver door is open or ajar. Second, the IPC displays the shift to park message if the vehicle is not in PARK (P), the ignition is ON or in ACC, the driver door is open or ajar and the brake pedal is not applied with vehicle speed less than 5 km/h (3 mph). The IPC uses multiple messages to control the shift to park message.

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

Spin Out Detected Message 

The spin-out detection feature activates the hazard indicator to alert other vehicles approaching the vehicle following a spin out, potentially reducing the risk of collision, especially in low visibility weather conditions. A spin out is defined as a slip angle greater than 40 degrees followed by 5 seconds of the vehicle at rest.

When a spin out is detected, the system activates the hazard indicator and the IPC displays a message to inform the driver that the hazards have been turned on. The IPC receives the vehicle dynamics SOS message from the GWM over the HS-CAN3. The GWM receives the vehicle dynamics SOS message from the ABS module over the HS-CAN2.

When the driver selects a different mode of operation (comfort, normal or sport), the message center provides a vehicle dynamics display to indicate the change. When a fault condition exists in the vehicle dynamics system, the message center provides a warning display.

The IPC receives the driver performance display and the vehicle dynamic data display messages from the GWM over the HS-CAN3.

The GWM receives the vehicle dynamic data display message from the VDM over the HS-CAN2.
