ECM provides a loose fuel cap signal to the combination meter via CAN communication lines.

LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING

This warning appears when the BCM detects low inflation pressure or a system malfunction. The BCM sends a signal to the combination meter via CAN communication to illuminate the low tire pressure warning lamp. In addition, a warning message will be displayed in the vehicle information display.

DOOR OPEN WARNING
