With the ignition ON, the APIM sends messages to the SASM through the GWM and over the HS-CAN 2. If the SASM does not receive these messages within a certain time frame (usually less than 1 second), the SASM sets DTCs. For information on the messages sent to the SASM by the APIM, refer to the Network Message Chart in ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) AND STABILITY CONTROL - SYSTEM OPERATION AND COMPONENT DESCRIPTION .
