PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
The Park Assist System display activates an audi-
ble tone that changes from intermittent to continu-
ous as the final two Light Emitting Diodes (LED's)
are illuminated on one side or both sides of the dis-
play.
The system detection length from the rear of the
vehicle is 0.3 meters to 1.5 meters. This area extends
around the rear side of the vehicle. The system detec-
tion height from the ground is 0.2 meters to about
1.5 meters. The radio mutes when the system acti-
vates its audible tone.
When the driver selects Reverse the system scans
for objects behind the vehicle using four sensors
located in the rear bumper. A warning display above
the rear window provides both visible and audible
warnings indicating the range of the object.
The system is active only when the transmission
gear selector is in reverse for vehicle speeds less than
16 Km/h (10 mph). If the vehicle's Parking/Emer-
gency Brake is applied, the system is deactivated.
The display contains two sets of yellow and red
Light Emitting Diode's (LED's) that the driver can
see as they look over their shoulder while backing
up. Each side of the vehicle has its own warning
LED's. The system provides a visual warning by illu-
minating one or more yellow LED's as the vehicle
gets closer to the object. As the vehicle continues to
approach the object, one red LED is illuminated and
the system emits a series of short beeps. The tone
will remain constant and both red LED's are illumi-
nated once the vehicle is within 12 inches (30.5 cm)
of the object.
The system can be turned ON or OFF through the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) when
the vehicle is in PARK. If the park assist system is
turned OFF, a single chime will sound and the EVIC
will display the following message ªREAR PARK
ASSIST OFFº, when the vehicle is in reverse.
²Ensure that the rear bumper is free of dirt and
debris to keep the system operating properly.
²Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations
could affect the performance of the system.
²Ensure that the parking brake is not applied.
If ªService Park Assist Systemº appears in the
EVIC after making sure the rear bumper is clean,
proceed to diagnose the system using a scan tool and
the appropriate diagnostic information.
WARNING
On vehicles equipped with airbags, disable
the airbag system before attempting any steer-
ing wheel, steering column, or instrument
panel component diagnosis or service. Discon-
nect and isolate the battery negative (ground)
cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag sys-
tem capacitor to discharge before performing
further diagnosis or service. This is the only
sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure
to take the proper precautions could result in
accidental airbag deployment, personal injury,

PARK ASSIST DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION
The Park Assist Display is located in the rear of
vehicle, over the rear window in the headliner (Fig.
1). It is a molded plastic unit housing Light Emitting
Diodes (LED's) and a chime module. Located in the
rear of the vehicle for easy visual reference when the
driver is backing up.
The display is used to alert the driver of any obsta-
cles detected in the rear of the vehicle. The chime or
audible signal also comes from the display unit.
OPERATION
When the ignition is put in the RUN position, all
the Light Emitting Diodes (LED's) will illuminate for
approximately one second. This will be interrupted if
the system senses an obstacle.
The ready status will be sensed by the outermost
two yellow LED's being illuminated at 50% intensity.
As the obstacle is sensed, the yellow LED's will start
illuminating inward until the object in approximately
one foot away and then the inner red LED will light.
The display is sensitive to which side of the rear of
the vehicle that the object is detected. If on the left
rear, the left segments will light and the same for the
right side of the vehicle.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
FRONT CONTROL MODULE
The Front Control Module (FCM) is a printed cir-
cuit board based module with a on-board micro-pro-
cessor. The FCM interfaces with other electronic
modules in the vehicle via the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus. In order to
obtain conclusive testing the PCI data bus and all of
the electronic modules that provide inputs to, or
receive outputs from the FCM must be checked. All
PCI communication faults must be resolved prior to
further diagnosing any front control module related
issues.
The FCM was designed to be diagnosed with an
appropriate diagnostic scan tool, such as the DRB
IIIt. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means
to diagnose the front control module requires the use
of a DRB IIItscan tool and the proper Body Diag-
nostic Procedures manual.
