Circuit/System Description

The driver door module (DDM) and the front passenger door module (FPDM) communicate with window regulator motors on the local interconnect network bus 1 and the local interconnect network bus 2 circuits respectively. When the driver power window switch is activated to a desired position, the DDM examines the request and checks for messages from other vehicle control modules prohibiting window movement. If no prohibitive messages have been received, the DDM will send a LIN serial data message to the driver door window motor to move the window to the desired position.

When the DDM receives a request to operate one of the right side passenger windows from the driver master control, a GMLAN serial data message is sent to the PDM. The PDM examines the request and checks for messages from other vehicle control modules prohibiting the window movement. If no prohibitive messages have been received, the PDM will send a LIN serial data message to the appropriate window motor to move the window as requested.

The DDM and PDM supply their respective rear power window switches with a 12 V reference and signal circuit. The rear power window switches contain separate resistors for each switch position. When a rear power window switch is activated, the associated door control module interprets the signal and checks for messages from other vehicle control modules prohibiting the window movement. If no prohibitive messages have been received, the door control module sends a LIN serial data message to the appropriate power window motor commanding the requested window position.

The driver information center (DIC) displays the compass based on serial data message from the BCM. The compass module communicates with the body control module (BCM) through a bi-directional data circuit (LIN).
