On each ignition cycle, the Side Obstacle Detection Control Module - Right (SOD-R) and Side Obstacle Detection Control Module - Left (SOD-L) run a self-diagnostic check during which the exterior mirror BLIS(R) (Blind Spot Information System) /CTA (Cross Traffic Alert) LEDs illuminate for 3 seconds then turn off indicating the system is operational. If a DTC fault is present, a system fault message is observed in the message center.





This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
