The indicator description and operation uses generic indicator titles. Refer to the table below for the indicators that are available on this vehicle:

The IPC illuminates the ABS indicator when the following occurs:

The IPC illuminates the air bag indicator when the following occurs:

The IPC illuminates the brake indicator when the following occurs:

The IPC illuminates the charge indicator in the message center when the following occurs:

The IPC illuminates the CRUISE indicator when the PCM detects that the cruise control is requested. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM requesting illumination.

The IPC illuminates the DOOR AJAR indicator in the message center when the body control module (BCM) detects that the driver or passenger door is open. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM requesting illumination. If the vehicle is in a forward or reverse gear position, the BCM sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

The IPC illuminates the SERVICE VEHICLE SOON indicator in the message center when the following occurs:

HOT COOLANT TEMP

The IPC illuminates the HOT COOLANT TEMP indicator in the message center when the IPC determines that the coolant temperature is greater than 121°C (250°F). The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM indicating the coolant temperature. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

LOW COOLANT LEVEL

The IPC illuminates the LOW COOLANT LEVEL indicator in the message center when the IPC detects a low coolant level condition (signal circuit is low). The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

CHANGE ENGINE OIL

The IPC illuminates the CHANGE ENGINE OIL indicator in the message center when the PCM determines that the engine oil should be changed. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM requesting illumination. Once the oil is changed, perform the engine oil monitor reset procedure in order to clear the CHANGE ENGINE OIL indicator. Refer to GM Oil Life System Resetting in Maintenance and Lubrication.

LOW ENG OIL LEVEL

The IPC illuminates the LOW ENG OIL LEVEL indicator in the message center when the PCM detects a low engine oil level condition (signal circuit is high). The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM requesting illumination. The LOW ENG OIL LEVEL indicator illuminates for 60 seconds at the start of each ignition cycle when the condition is present. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

LOW OIL PRESSURE

The IPC illuminates the LOW OIL PRESSURE indicator in the message center when the PCM detects low oil pressure (signal circuit is high). The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM requesting illumination. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

The IPC illuminates the fasten safety belt indicator when the following occurs:

The IPC illuminates the LOW FUEL indicator in the message center when the IPC detects that the fuel level is less than a pre-determined value. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM indicating the fuel level percent. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

High Beam

The IPC illuminates the high beam indicator when the body control module (BCM) detects that the high beams are requested. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM requesting illumination.

HIGHBEAM OUT

The IPC illuminates the HIGHBEAM OUT indicator in the message center when the body control module (BCM) detects an open in one of the highbeam lamp circuits. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM requesting illumination. The HIGHBEAM OUT indicator illuminates for 60 seconds when the condition is present.

Turn Signals

The IPC illuminates the right or left turn signal indicator when the IPC detects a turn signal request or a hazard request. If the IPC determines that the turn signal is active for more than 1.2 km (0.75 mi), the IPC sends a class  2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

The PCM illuminates the MIL (service engine soon or check engine) when the following occurs:

The IPC illuminates the SECURITY indicator in the message center as determined by the vehicle theft deterrent (VTD) system and the content theft deterrent (CTD) system. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the body control module (BCM) requesting illumination.

The IPC illuminates the LOW TIRE PRESSURE indicator in the message center when the electronic brake control module (EBCM) detects low pressure in any of the four tires. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the EBCM requesting illumination. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM

The IPC illuminates the SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM indicator in the message center when the electronic brake control module (EBCM) detects a malfunction in the traction control system. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the EBCM requesting illumination. The SERVICE TRACTION SYSTEM indicator illuminates for 60 seconds when the condition is present. The IPC sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

TRAC OFF

The IPC illuminates the TRAC OFF indicator when the following occurs:

TRACTION ACTIVE

The IPC illuminates the TRACTION ACTIVE indicator in the message center when the electronic brake control module (EBCM) detects a traction control event. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the EBCM requesting illumination.

The IPC illuminates the TRUNK OPEN indicator in the message center when the body control module (BCM) detects that the trunk is ajar or open (signal circuit is low). The IPC receives a class 2 message from the BCM requesting illumination. If the vehicle is in a forward or reverse gear position, the BCM sends a class 2 message to the radio in order to activate an audible warning.

The IPC illuminates the LOW WASHER FLUID indicator in the message center when the IPC detects a low washer fluid condition (signal circuit is low). The LOW WASHER FLUID indicator illuminates for 60 seconds when the condition is present.
