Active Park Assist

When the active park assist system is enabled, the Parking Aid Module (PAM) will utilize ultrasonic sensors to locate and measure a parking space. Once a parking space is identified by the system and chosen by the driver, the PAM will then send steering command messages to the PSCM over the HS-CAN bus. The PSCM will utilize steering angle information transmitted by the Steering Angle Sensor Module (SASM) over the HS-CAN bus and wheel speed information transmitted by the ABS module over the HS-CAN bus to actuate the steering system as requested by the PAM.

Any driver inputs via the steering wheel will deactivate the active park assist system. Also, the presence of certain DTCs in the PSCM and/or ABS module will disable the system or keep the system from being activated. Refer to REFER to Active Park Assist for information on the active park assist system.
