Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to operate
properly, cleaning the outside of the
windshield in front of the rearview
mirror may correct the issue.
Night Vision System
If equipped, this system can help the
driver see and alert the driver to
pedestrians or large animals ahead of
the vehicle beyond the area lit by the
headlamps. A thermal heat image of
the view ahead is displayed when it is
dark enough outside. If a pedestrian
or large animal is detected more than
25 m (82 ft) away, a yellow box
appears around the pedestrian or large
animal. With the vehicle moving,
when the system detects a pedestrian
or large animal may approach or cross
the vehicle's path, an amber
pedestrian or animal icon displays and
an amber box appears around the
identified object. When the system
detects that the vehicle is approaching
a pedestrian or large animal ahead too
quickly, the yellow or amber box
changes to red.
With the Pedestrian Braking system
turned on, Night Vision provides a red
Head-Up Display (HUD) alert when
the system detects that the vehicle is
approaching a pedestrian ahead too
quickly. In addition, an alert beeps or
the Safety Alert Seat pulses,
if equipped. SeeFront Pedestrian
Braking (FPB) System 0323.
{Warning
The system does not detect all
objects or the vehicle distance from
objects. The system may not
provide a warning with enough time
to help avoid a crash.

Other ITBC-Related DIC Messages
TRAILER BRAKES CONNECTED: This
message will briefly display when a
trailer with electric brakes is first
connected to the vehicle. This
message will automatically turn off in
about 10 seconds. This message can
be acknowledged before it
automatically turns off.
CHECK TRAILER WIRING: This
message will display if:
.The ITBC system first determines
connection to a trailer with electric
brakes and then the trailer harness
becomes disconnected the vehicle.
If the disconnect occurs while the
vehicle is stationary, this message
will automatically turn off in about
30 seconds. This message will also
turn off if it is acknowledged or if
the trailer harness is reconnected. If the disconnect occurs while the
vehicle is moving, this message will
continue until the ignition is turned
off. This message will also turn off if
it is acknowledged or if the trailer
harness is reconnected.
.There is an electrical fault in the
wiring to the trailer brakes. This
message will continue as long as
there is an electrical fault in the
trailer wiring. This message will also
turn off if it is acknowledged.
To determine whether the electrical
fault is on the vehicle side or trailer
side of the trailer wiring harness
connection: 1. Disconnect the trailer wiring harness from the vehicle.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition back to RUN.
4. If the CHECK TRAILER WIRING message reappears, the electrical
fault is on the vehicle side. If the CHECK TRAILER WIRING
message only reappears when
connecting the trailer wiring
harness to the vehicle, the
electrical fault is on the trailer side.
SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM:
This message will display when there
is a problem with the ITBC system.
If this message continues over
multiple ignition cycles, there is a
problem with the ITBC system. Have
the vehicle serviced.
If either the CHECK TRAILER WIRING
or SERVICE TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEM
message displays while driving, the
ITBC system may not be fully
functional or may not function at all.
When traffic conditions allow,
carefully pull the vehicle over to the
side of the road and turn the ignition
off. Check the wiring connection to
the trailer and turn the ignition back
on. If either of these messages
continues, either the vehicle or trailer
needs service.
A GM dealer may be able to diagnose
and repair problems with the trailer.
However, any diagnosis and repair of
the trailer is not covered under the

Trailer Connections Status
When a trailer is connected, the
Trailering App System detects the
trailer connection using the Stop/Turn
Signal lighting circuits and alerts the
driver by requesting a trailer profile
setup through the Trailering App
System on the infotainment screen.
The Trailer Detection Alert setting
must be enabled for the alert to
display when a trailer is connected.
When a trailer is connected and the
ignition is off, the Trailering App
System will periodically pulse the
lighting circuits of the trailer to verify
it is still connected. The trailer lights
may periodically flash as a result of
this trailer connection detection.
These flashes may be more visible in
dark ambient light environments. The
flashing or flickering lights are a
normal condition and the Trailering
App System has built-in protections to
prevent the battery from draining. When Theft Alert is also enabled the
frequency and pattern of this flashing
will change.
If a connected trailer becomes
disconnected, a message about the
trailer disconnect will appear on the
DIC immediately (if vehicle is on) or
upon next ignition cycle (if trailer was
disconnected while vehicle is off).
Check your trailer connection if
needed.
Connection Problem
If any of the trailer connections are
lost, a message about the connection
issue will appear on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
infotainment display will also show
the connection issue in the
Connection Status view.
If a trailer connection is not detected,
the Trailering App will not display the
