Theft System Indicators: Security

Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) illuminates SECURITY indicator as determined by Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) system and Content Theft Deterrent (CTD) system. IPC receives a class 2 message from theft deterrent controller module or Rear Integration Module (RIM) requesting illumination. IPC illuminates SECURITY indicator when this occurs:

• VTD system requests IPC to illuminate indicator only when ignition switch is turned to RUN position. VTD system uses indicator as a malfunction indicator.
• CTD system requests IPC to illuminate indicator only when ignition switch is turned to OFF position. CTD system uses indicator to identify system status.
• IPC performs a displays test at start of each ignition cycle. Indicator illuminates for approximately 3 seconds.
