Gateway Module

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The IPC and BCM are gateway modules. The IPC translates messages on the MS-CAN to the I-CAN and vice versa. The BCM translates messages on the HS-CAN to the MS-CAN and vice versa. This allows a message to be distributed throughout all 3 networks.

The IPC and the BCM are the only modules on this vehicle that have this ability.
