B1529 GMC Description
The Body Control Module (BCM) supplies voltage to the steering wheel control switches and monitors the reindicator. Each switch state is associated to a set resistance value and when pressed a specific voltage drop occurs across the resistor unique to the switch. The BCM identifies the switch selection and activates the feature.
