Door Ajar Warning Chime

The door ajar warning chime warns that a door or the liftgate is ajar and sounds a chime through the front speakers. When a door or the liftgate becomes ajar while the ignition is in RUN with vehicle speed greater than 5 km/h (3 mph), the IPC displays the appropriate door ajar warning message and sounds a single chime tone for each door opened. The door ajar chime only sounds once for each time the door or the liftgate is opened, and only repeats the chime if the door is closed then reopened.

The IPC receives the door ajar status (driver door, passenger door, right rear door, left rear door or liftgate) from the GWM over the HS-CAN3. The GWM receives the door ajar status from the BCM over the HS-CAN1.

When a chime request is received, the IPC sends the IPC chime request message to the ACM or the DSP (with Revel audio system) to sound the chime.
