Icon Icon Definition CAUTION: When performing service on or near the SIR components or the SIR wiring, the SIR system must be disabled. Refer to SIR Disabling and Enabling . Failure to observe the correct procedure could cause deployment of the SIR components, personal injury, or unnecessary SIR system repairs. CAUTION: The high intensity discharge system produces high voltage and current. To reduce the risk of severe shocks and burns: Never open the high intensity discharge system ballast or the arc tube assembly starter. Never probe between the high intensity discharge system ballast output connector and the arc tube assembly. IMPORTANT: Twisted wires provide an effective shield that helps protect sensitive electronic components from electrical interference. In order to prevent electrical interference from degrading the performance of the connected components, you must maintain the proper specification when making any repairs to the twisted wires shown : The wires must be twisted a minimum of 9 turns per 31 cm (12 in) as measured anywhere along the length of the wires. The outside diameter of the twisted wires must not exceed 6.0 mm (0.25 in)

Electronic Park Lock Description & Operation

If the vehicle is equipped with automatic transmission and a floor mounted console gear shift, it has an electronic park lock system (EPL). The EPL system purpose is to prevent the ignition key from being turned to the OFF position when the transmission is in any position other than PARK and the vehicle may still be moving. The EPL system consists of an ignition lock cylinder solenoid, and a park position switch that is located in the A/T shift lock control switch. The ignition lock cylinder solenoid contains a pin that is spring loaded to mechanically prevent the ignition key cylinder from being turned to the lock position when the vehicle transmission is not in the PARK position. If vehicle power is lost, and/or the transmission is not in the Park position the operator will not be able to turn the ignition key to the lock position and will not be able to remove the ignition key from the column.

Serial Data Power Mode Master

Power to many of this vehicles circuits is controlled by the module that is designated the power mode master (PMM). This vehicles PMM is the body control module (BCM). The ignition switch is a low current switch with multiple discrete ignition switch signals to the PMM for determination of the power mode that will be sent over the serial data circuits to the other modules that need this information. The PMM will also activate relays and other direct outputs of the PMM as needed. The PMM determines which power mode (Off, Accessory, Run, Crank Request) is required, and reports this information to other modules via serial data. Modules which have switched voltage inputs may operate in a default mode if the PMM serial data message does not match what the individual module can see from its own connections.

The PMM receives ignition switch signals to identify the operators desired power mode. The PMM Power Mode Parameters table below illustrates the correct state of these input parameters (circuits) in correspondence to the ignition switch position

PMM Power Mode Parameters

Relay Controlled Power Mode

The body control module (BCM) uses the discrete ignition switch inputs Run/Crank Ignition 1 Voltage, Accessory Voltage, and Ignition 1 Voltage, to distinguish the correct power mode. The BCM, after determining the desired power mode, will activate the appropriate relays for that power mode.

The RAP relay remains on for a timed period after the Ignition key is removed. Refer to Retained Accessory Power (RAP) Description and Operation for more information on the retained accessory power (RAP) function.

BCM Awake/Sleep States

The body control module (BCM) is able to control or perform all of the BCM functions in the awake state. The BCM enters the sleep state when active control or normal monitoring of system functions has stopped and a time limit has passed. The BCM must detect certain wake-up inputs before entering the awake state. The BCM monitors for these inputs during the sleep state.

The BCM will enter the awake state if any of the following wake-up inputs are detected

1. Activity on the serial data line.
2. Detection of a battery reconnect.
3. Any door open signal.
4. Headlamps ON.
5. Key-in-ignition.
6. Ignition ON.
7. Park lamps ON.
8. Keyless entry or remote start message.

The BCM will enter a sleep state when all of the following conditions exist

1. The ignition switch is OFF, key out.
2. No activity exists on the serial data line.
3. No outputs are commanded.
4. No delay timers are actively counting.
5. No wake-up inputs are present.

If all these conditions are met, the BCM will enter a low power or sleep condition.

Retained Accessory Power (RAP)

The retained accessory power (RAP) system allows specific vehicle functions to operate for a specific amount of time after the ignition switch is turned OFF. The BCM monitors the ignition switch position, battery condition, and each door ajar/open switch status to determine whether RAP should be initiated or terminated. RAP is controlled with 2 different methods; serial data and relay control. Some modules receive a RAP message over the serial data circuits. Serial data controlled RAP is deactivated as required by their modules RAP power mode operation. Other subsystems are activated directly by the BCM through a RAP relay. Components and systems that are active in RAP are also activated anytime the ignition is any position other than OFF regardless of the door switch signals. The RAP relay is located in the rear fuse block, is grounded at G302, and is controlled by the rap relay coil control circuit from the BCM.

Relay Controlled RAP

The BCM keeps the RAP relay energized during all power modes, except Off-Awake and Crank. The relay is also energized for approximately 10 minutes after shutting the ignition OFF and removing the key, providing no door is opened.

Relay controlled RAP will end when one of the following conditions is met

1. The BCM receives an input from any door ajar switch indicating the opening of any door after the ignition key is out of the ignition. IMPORTANT: If the BCM is receiving any door ajar signal from those switches when the ignition key is turned OFF, RAP will not initiate.
2. The BCM internal timer for the RAP expires after approximately 10 minutes.
3. The BCM detects a decrease in battery capacity below a prescribed limit.

Systems powered by the accessory relay during the retained accessory power (RAP) power mode are as follows

1. A/T shift lock control solenoid assembly (w/ floor shifter)
2. Sunroof control module
3. Inside rearview mirror
4. Outside moisture sensor (CE1)
5. Traffic information receiver (U3Q)
6. Rear window sunshade module (DE9)
7. Middle door (V4U)

Serial Data Controlled RAP

RAP systems controlled by serial data are as follows

Windows

Window RAP activation/termination timing is the same as relay operation. The front window switches are separate modules that operate the windows on their respective side of the vehicle.

Radio

Radio RAP activation/termination is the same as relay operation with 1 exception; the only door switch that will turn off the radio during RAP is the driver door open switch.

Vehicle Communication Interface Module (VCIM) (Onstar®)

VCIM RAP activation/termination is the same as radio operation with 1 exception; if there is an active call when the ignition key is turned off the VCIM will remain in RAP mode, and keep the radio in RAP mode until the call is terminated.
