Body Control Module (BCM)

The BCM:

• Is the gateway module for the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus
• Receives hard wired input from sensors and switches
• Provides logic and output control of certain electrical systems
• Provides load shedding logic and control
• Supports flashing (reprogramming) of itself as well as other Electronic Control Units (ECUs) on the CAN data bus networks
• Stores vehicle configuration data

Inputs 

• Shipping mode status
• Ignition command state
• Remote start active signal
• Battery State of Charge (SoC) input
• Accessory (ACC) delay active input
• Wireless Charging Pad Module errors and faults
• 115 volt outlet switch with indicator
• PIM operational output status signals

Outputs 

• Internal lighting command to the Wireless Charging Pad Module
• Door ajar signals to the Wireless Charging Pad Module
• Commanded ignition state to the Wireless Charging Pad Module
• Battery SoC to the Wireless Charging Pad Module
• RUN/ACC relay control to the PDC
• Cargo power outlet display message commands to the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC)
• PIM control outputs
• Vehicle configuration to multiple nodes on the bus networks
