Abstract
A low voltage electronic module interface, with a low voltage interface for an electronic module receiving a constant current from a body control module, the interface including a reverse current protection circuit; and a switchoperably connected in series with the reverse current protection circuit, the switchbeing responsive to a status signal. The reverse current protection circuitand the switchform a low voltage electronic module interface circuithaving a resistance; and the resistance is selected so voltage across the low voltage electronic module interface circuitis less than 2.70 Volts when the switchis closed and the constant currentflows through the low voltage electronic module interface circuit
