Disarming an Armed System/Silencing an Alarm
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Buick LaCrosse and 2006 Buick Allure. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
If system arming has been requested by the power door lock switch or the keyless entry transmitter, it must be disarmed.
IMPORTANT:
Using the power door unlock switch or manually unlocking the doors does not disable the content theft deterrent (CTD) arm mode. Also, disconnecting the battery or pulling fuses does not disable the arm mode, since the body control module (BCM) stores the CTD mode status in memory.
- To disarm the CTD system in standby mode (theft LED flashing quickly and door(s) open), perform one of the following:
- Press either power door unlock switch.
- Use the vehicle key to unlock the front door.
- Press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
- Insert a valid key into the ignition and switch to the ON position.
- To disarm the CTD system in the armed mode:
- Use the vehicle key to unlock the front door.
- Press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
- Insert a valid key into the ignition and switch to the ON position
- To disarm the CTD system when activated (alarming mode).
- Use the vehicle key to unlock the front door.
- Press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
- Insert a valid key into the ignition and switch to the ON position.
