Gateway Module

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The IPC and BCM are gateway modules. The IPC translates messages on the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN) to the Infotainment Controller Area Network (I-CAN) and vice versa. The BCM translates messages on the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN) to the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN) and vice versa. This allows a message to be distributed throughout all 3 networks.

The IPC and the BCM are the only modules on this vehicle that have this ability.
