| Collision mitigation by braking precharge request | CCM | This message is used to request precharging of the hydraulic brake system in preparation of a severe braking event. |
| Cruise control mode | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the current cruise control system mode; not active, keeping_speed, accelerating, decelerating, resuming_high, resuming_low, tap up waiting or tap down waiting. |
| Cruise control override | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the PCM has overridden the cruise control request. When the ABS module receives this message, any other cruise control messages are ignored until the "not overridden" message is received. |
| Cruise control status | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the current cruise control system status; off, denied, standby_denied, standby, active_que_assist or active. |
| Door ajar status | BCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current door ajar status. There is a separate message for each door. The ABS module resets the parameters used for the ESC function when a door is opened. |
| EPAS information | PSCM | Several steering angle messages are sent to the ABS module from the PSCM. These messages include steering angle sensor status, steering wheel angle and steering wheel rotation count. The ABS module uses the steering angle sensor data for ESC system operation. |
| EPAS steering request | PSCM | This message informs the ABS module an active park event is taking place and the EPAS system is busy steering the vehicle. |
| Engine RPM | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message provides the ABS module with the current engine RPM. The ABS module uses this information for the auto hold feature, hill start assist feature, traction control and ESC. |
| Engine status | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current status of the engine system; off, on or engine auto stopped. |
| Gear lever position | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current transmission gear lever position, this is used for the hill start assist system and the ESC system. The hill start assist system operates in forward and reverse gears. The ESC system does not operate when the transmission is in REVERSE. |
| Hill start assist request | BCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current, driver selected mode for the hill start assist system; off, auto or manual. |
| Ignition status | BCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current ignition status; off, accessory, run, start, unknown or invalid. |
| Ignition key type | BCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current ignition key type; a standard ignition key or a MyKey ® ignition key. |
| Lateral acceleration data | RCM | This message provides the ABS module with the current vehicle lateral acceleration information and whether or not the information is valid. |
| Longitudinal acceleration data | RCM | This message provides the ABS module with the current vehicle longitudinal acceleration information and whether or not the information is valid. |
| Powertrain torque status | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current ability of the powertrain to provide torque for stability control system operation; power pack off_torque not available, power pack on_torque not available, start in progress_torque not available and power pack on_torque available. |
| Odometer value | IPC | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current odometer mileage. |
| Reverse gear selected | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module the driver has requested REVERSE gear and the current status of REVERSE gear; active, inactive or faulted. This message is used for operation of the hill start assist feature and the ESC feature. The hill start assist feature operates in forward and reverse gears but the ESC feature does not operate when the transmission is in REVERSE. |
| RCM serial number | RCM | The ABS module stores the RCM serial number and verifies the serial number when the vehicle is started or the ignition is set to RUN or ACC. Over time, the ABS module learns the offset of the sensors inside the RCM. When a new serial number is found and the Interactive Vehicle Dynamics (IVD) Initialization procedure is carried out using a scan tool, the ABS module resets the offset number learned for ESC. |
| Steering angle sensor data | PSCM | Several steering angle messages are sent to the ABS module from the PSCM. These messages include steering angle sensor status, steering wheel angle and steering wheel rotation count. The ABS module uses the steering angle sensor data for ESC system operation. |
| Traction control mode request | IPC | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module of the current driver selected traction control mode made through the message center. |
| Transmission in reverse | PCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message informs the ABS module when the transmission is in REVERSE, this is used for the hill start assist system and the ESC system. The hill start assist system operates in forward and reverse gears. The ESC system does not operate when the transmission is in REVERSE. |
| Vehicle configuration data | BCM | This message is sent to the GWM and then to the ABS module. This message provides the ABS module with the current optional and configured items such as tire size, axle ratio, manual or automatic transaxle, keyless entry and VIN. |
| Vehicle dynamic data display | VDM | Used to inform the ABS module of the current vehicle suspension mode; comfort, normal, sport, faulty, service required, temporarily off, or mode change unavailable. This message is used by the ABS module for traction control and ESC performance. |
| Yaw rate data | RCM | This message provides the ABS module with the current vehicle yaw rate information and whether or not the information is valid. |
