Front Display Interface Module (FDIM)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
For vehicles without navigation, the Front Display Interface Module (FDIM) is a stand-alone module. It receives messages for all of its displays, which include:
- Audio information
- Climate control fan speed and temperature setting
- Outside air temperature
- Compass heading
For vehicles with navigation, the FDIM is hardwired to the ACM. When the touchscreen is pressed, a signal is sent to the ACM, which acts on the signal either by changing the audio setting or by broadcasting a message via the MS-CAN to the module controlling the function that was selected. The audio system, navigation, and climate control video feed to the FDIM is provided by the ACM. If equipped with a rear view camera, the video feed for the camera is provided directly by the rear view camera.
