Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
On 4x2 vehicles and certain 4x4 vehicles, the drive mode button on the rotary gear shift knob is used to activate and deactivate the selectable drive mode feature. When the driver presses the drive mode button, the GSM sends a voltage signal to the TCM along a dedicated circuit. The TCM sends a drive mode message out on the HS-CAN1. When the GWM receives this message, it is relayed over the HS-CAN2. When the ABS module receives the message, it takes the necessary action depending on the selectable drive mode message.
The drive mode button is located on rotary gear shift knob.
On certain 4x4 vehicles, the ATCM is used to activate and deactivate the selectable drive mode feature. When the driver presses or rotates the ATCM drive mode switch, the ATCM sends a drive mode message out on the HS-CAN2. When the ABS module receives this message, it takes the necessary action depending on the selectable drive mode message.
