Shipping Mode
When the vehicle is shipped it will be in the Shipping Mode. The BCM will enter battery save mode immediately after it goes to sleep. This is providing the following are performed:
- Ignition Off Draw (IOD) (radio fuse on this vehicle) is pulled (this sees Radio Bus Communication Fault).
- Ignition has been cycled to RUN or ACCESSORY.
- Ignition is in LOCK (with or without the key in the ignition).
- Dome lamps will cancel.
- Headlamp battery save will be performed.
- Accessory delay will be cancelled.
- If the driver door window is UP, then Auto Window Down will be performed.
- The BCM has recorded less than 10 module miles (V1 will be less than 50 vehicle miles).
VEHICLE START UP If the VTSS is armed when it goes into battery save mode, it will wake up in the 15 minute lights flashing alarm mode. You must disarm the VTSS with the RKE UNLOCK button or the VTSS will start alarming whenever another monitored input is active.
- Enter the vehicle using the outside driver door key cylinder or driver door inside handle.
- Place ignition in the RUN position (this wakes up the BCM and all power is restored).
- If the VTSS is active there will be a 15 minute lights only alarm.
- To cancel VTSS, press the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter. (Note: Any change in monitored input will cause the horn to alarm).
