Information And Message Center

Information And Message Center

The message center consists of the following:

- Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC)

- Front Control/Display Interface Module (FCDIM)

The message center is integrated into the FCDIM (Front Control/Display Interface Module), which displays message center warning messages, message center warning indicators and audio information. The message center displays are controlled by the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) through messages sent to the FCDIM (Front Control/Display Interface Module) over the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN) communication bus. The message center constantly monitors different vehicle systems and displays all warnings and message center functions in the FCDIM (Front Control/Display Interface Module). The message center notifies the driver of potential vehicle concerns by displaying a warning message pertaining to the system in which a fault has been detected.

Oil Change Minder

The message center provides an oil change minder to inform the driver that an oil change is required. The calculated interval between oil changes is based on mileage and time. The interval for the oil change minder is 16,093 km (10,000 miles) or 1 year. The oil change minder can be reset by the driver. Refer to Message Center Configuration Service and Repair.

Message Center Indicators

The FCDIM (Front Control/Display Interface Module) displays message center indicators along with warning messages. Many of the message center indicators use the same or similar iconic representations that are used in the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster) as informational or warning indicators. For example: the door ajar message center warning indicator is represented by the same door ajar symbol used in the IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster). The message center indicators are displayed along with warning messages and may also be accompanied by a warning chime.

System Warning Messages

The system warning messages alert the operator to possible concerns or malfunctions in the vehicle operating systems. The warning messages that are displayed in the message center are as follows:
