Circuit/System Description

The status of charging events (including delays) is communicated to the user through a charge status indicator and audio tones. The vehicle charge status indicator, located on the top middle of the instrument panel, contains a green LED (charge status indicator) and yellow LED (charge pilot indicator) controlled by the Hybrid Powertrain Control Module 2 and a second green LED (charge complete indicator) controlled by the BCM. The indicator will be illuminated solid green when the vehicle is charging under automatic control. It will have a fast flash green if the charging is delayed and will begin later. It will have a slow flash green when charging is complete. A solid lit yellow indicator means the vehicle is not able to accept a charge. And if there is no indicator lit it means the electronic vehicle supply equipment is not working properly or connected.
