Pinpoint Test Bi: Ignition Status Run/Start Input Concern: Notes

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

The BECAME provides battery voltage to the RCM and, if equipped, PAD indicator (vehicles without center stack display only). The BECAME compares HS-CAN1 messages to ignition voltage inputs. If the status of the HS-CAN1 message and the voltage input do not match, the BECAME sets a DTC.

If a fault is detected, the BECAME stores the appropriate DTC in memory and sends a message to the RCM over HS-CAN1 and HS-CAN2, indicating that a BECAME fault is present. Upon receipt of this message, the RCM sets DTC U0413:92 and sends a message to the IPC to illuminate the airbag warning indicator.
