DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)
instrument cluster for 6 seconds after the instrument
cluster receives the message from the Body Control
Module. The seat belt lamp is therefore illuminated
for 6 seconds whenever the ignition switch is moved
to run/start position.
(1) While ignition is off, the seat belt lamp will not
be illuminated.
(2) The ignition power feed status will be updated
every 250 milliseconds or on change.
(3) This lamp will be checked by the instrument
cluster for 6 seconds with every run/start cycle of the
ignition switch.

TURN SIGNAL ON CHIME

The turn signal on chime will warn the driver that
the turn signals have been left on. When the body
control module receives a turn signal input for 6.4
km (4.0 miles), vehicle speed is greater than 24 km/h
(15 mph), the chime will sound continuously until the
turn signal is turned OFF. If vehicle speed drops
below 24 km/h (15 mph) prior to the warning being
activated, the accumulated distance traveled will be
reset. The turn signal chime is not activated when
the emergency flashers are turned on. This feature
can also be disabled in EEPROM. Chime rate: 50
chimes per minute.
For the turn signal warning system to operate:
• Must have input from either the right or left
turn signal lamps. Creates a voltage change between
0 and battery voltage.
• The vehicle speed sensor sends a message to the
Powertrain Control Module that vehicle has exceeded
24 km/h (15 mph) for 6.4 km (4.0 miles).
• When the above two conditions are met, the
chime will sound. The chime will stop when no fur-
ther voltage change is detected.
CHIME WARNING/REMINDER SYSTEM
• If hazard warning signals are pulsing, no chime
will sound.
• If speed drops below 24 km/h (15 mph) before
the warning is issued, the warning will not be issued
and the distance counter will be reset.
• If turn signal lamps are not working properly,
the chime will not sound.
• When using the scan tool, refer to the proper
Body Diagnostic Manual for the procedure.

WARNING LAMP ANNOUNCEMENT CHIME

The warning lamp announcement chime will warn
the driver to scan the instrument cluster to observe
which warning lamp is illuminated. Whenever the
volts, low fuel, low washer/coolant level, door ajar or
gate ajar lamps are first illuminated, the chime will
sound one tone. The door/liftgate ajar warning lamp
announcement chime sounds only if the vehicle speed
is above 2 m.p.h.
Two seconds after ignition switch is turned ON or
until the seat belt warning chime ends, all warning
announcement chimes will be consolidated into one
warning announcement. This will occur 2 seconds
after the seat belt warning chime ends. If a warning
announcement should occur while another warning
chime in progress (turn signal, low oil pressure or
high speed warnings), no additional chimes will
sound after the chime in progress ends. All associ-
ated lamps will be illuminated, and the active chime
will be the warning announcement.
