Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The side blind zone alert system uses two modules: The side object sensor module - left and the side object sensor module - right. The side object sensor module - left is the master and communicates with other control modules in the vehicle via the vehicle-wide serial data bus. The side object sensor module - left communicates with the side object sensor module - right on a private serial data bus. Internal fault detection is performed within the side object sensor module - left. No external circuit diagnosis is involved.
