Inadvertent Load Monitor

The scan tool displays active or inactive. When the BCM energizes the inadvertent load monitor relay the scan tool will display active. When the BCM de-energizes the inadvertent load monitor relay the scan tool will display inactive. The inadvertent load monitor system is used for battery run down protection. The BCM removes battery voltage to accessories that were left on by de-energizing the monitored load relay.
