The BSCM is responsible for providing the PAM with several outputs that help determine the radius of the trajectory travelled by the vehicle.
The BSCM manages the autonomous braking warning function based upon the distance to detected obstacle at the front or rear of the vehicle signal sent by the PAM.
The BSCM requests illumination of the brake lamps when the BSCM applies the brakes.
