Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 GMC Sierra, 2008 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2008 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2008 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The trailer brake control module (TBCM) checks whether there is an ignition ground short fault. This diagnostic compares ignition state with the engine running state received over serial data to determine whether or not there is an ignition ground short fault.
