This table identifies which serial data link that a particular module uses for in-vehicle data transmission and for communication with the scan tool. Some modules may use more than one data link to communicate. This table is used to assist in correcting a communication malfunction. The body control module (BCM) emulates some devices that are on high speed GMLAN serial data circuit to the modules on class 2 serial data circuit. The BCM transmits multiple Node Alive messages using source IDs that correspond to each of those high speed GMLAN nodes. This is in addition to the BCM behaving itself as a real node. For the description and operation of these serial data communication circuits refer to Data Link Communications Description and Operation .
Important: If the scan tool does not communicate with the vehicle the class two serial data bus must be diagnosed, repaired and functional first in order to prevent misdiagnosis.
