Generic Electronic Module (Gem)

NOTE: Upon installation of a new Generic Electronic Module (GEM), the module must be reconfigured. Refer to Module Communications Network (Information Bus) prior to GEM removal.

The GEM receives inputs and delivers outputs to a majority of the electronically controlled features of the vehicle. The GEM constantly monitors the systems under its control and reports a concern in the form of a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). The DTC can be retrieved with a diagnostic tool through the ISO 9141 communication network. The GEM controls the following features:
^ front wiper and washer
^ warning chime
^ battery saver
^ illuminated entry and interior lighting
^ driver one-touch down power window (optional)
^ door ajar warning indicator lamp
^ safety belt warning indicator lamp
