Conventional Ignition Switch System: On

When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the switch routes voltage through the ACC-designated and ON designated circuits to the BCM  . When the BCM  detects voltage from the ON-designated circuit, it activates the ignition relay (by providing ground to the coil side of the relay) and sends a message over the CAN  to other vehicle modules.
