EPDM E/R starts the auto active test with the door switch signals transmitted by BCM via CAN communication. Therefore, the CAN communication line between EPDM E/R and BCM is considered normal if the auto active test starts successfully.
The auto active test facilitates troubleshooting if any systems controlled by EPDM E/R cannot be operated.
