THE VEHICLE
Even with a defective CECM (Chassis Electronic
Control Module) or a CAN network problem,

and drive in a secure manner.
However, many secondary functions are lost. In
this case, the following directives must be
followed.
o Never connect a battery charger when the
ignition is at the ON position on a vehicle with
a CAN defective or certain functions will start
up by themselves,
o Disconnect the charger before starting the
vehicle, if not the default functions will not
activate,
o If the default mode does not activate, try to
turn the ignition OFF while ensuring that no
charger is connected and then restart the
vehicle.
