The IPC and the body control module (BCM) communicate via a serial peripheral interface (SPI). The IPC receives information from the BCM on the SPI serial data out circuit. The BCM transmits information to the IPC in order to control various indicators, the engine coolant temperature gage, and the fuel gage. The BCM receives data from the IPC on the SPI serial data in circuit. The IPC transmits information such as tachometer active status, speedometer active status, and invalid data received messages. The BCM synchronizes the data signals by toggling the SPI serial data clock circuit to ground.
The ignition is ON.
The IPC determines that the BCM transmitted data to the IPC is invalid for greater than 12 seconds. The IPC sends a message to the BCM via the SPI serial data in circuit indicating that invalid data was received.
The BCM determines that the IPC transmitted data to the BCM is invalid for greater than 5 seconds.
The BCM detects that the SPI serial data in circuit is less than 1.2 v for greater than 5 seconds.
The BCM detects that the SPI serial data in circuit is greater than 4.5 v for greater than 5 seconds.
The BCM detects that the SPI serial data out circuit is less than 1.2 v for greater than 5 seconds.
The BCM detects that the SPI serial data out circuit is greater than 4.5 v for greater than 5 seconds.
The BCM detects that the SPI serial data clock circuit is less than 1.2 v for greater than 5 seconds.
The BCM detects that the SPI serial data clock circuit is greater than 4.5 v for greater than 5 seconds.
The IPC takes the following default action:
• | The fuel gage displays empty. |
• | The engine coolant temperature gage displays 100°F. |
• | The theft system indicator, ABS indicator, and SERVICE VEHICLE SOON indicator illuminate. |
• | The current DTC clears on the next malfunction free ignition cycle. |
• | The history DTC clears after 100 malfunction free ignition cycles. |
• | The BCM receives a clear DTC request from the scan tool. |
