WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Torrent and 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The body control module (BCM) is the power mode master responsible for sending the power mode message on the data buses. The BCM monitors Ignition 1 (Run/Crank), Ignition 2 (Acc/Run) and Ignition 3 (Run) signals from the ignition switch, and the engine run flag (ERF) in order to determine the present power mode. Refer to Body Control System Description and Operation for the applicable power mode look up table.
