Interruptible Retained Accessory Power Relay Controlled Retained Accessory Power

The Keyless entry control module keeps the relay energized during all power modes, except ignition OFF/Vehicle Off. The relay is also energized for approximately 10 min after moving to the Ignition OFF/Vehicle OFF state and moving the transmitter out of range, providing no door is opened. The keyless entry control module controls components in the same manner as BCM direct controlled retained accessory power with one exception; interruptible retained accessory power is deactivated during transmitter authentication. The keyless entry control module will deactivate components that may cause radio frequency (RF) interference when the ignition mode switch is pressed which may result in "NO REMOTE DETECTED" displayed on the driver information center.

Relay controlled retained accessory power will end when one of the following conditions is met:

• The keyless entry control module receives a message that any door ajar or open switch indicating the opening of any door after entering the ignition Off state and the transmitter is out of range.
• The keyless entry control module detects a decrease in battery capacity below a prescribed limit.
  NOTE: If the keyless entry control module is receiving any door ajar or open signal from those switches when the ignition Off state is entered and the transmitter is out of range, retained accessory power will not initiate.

Systems powered by the retained accessory power relay during the retained accessory power mode are as follows:

• Accessory Power Receptacle
• Cigarette Lighter Receptacle
