Arming The VTSS
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- With the key removed from the ignition lock and any door open (excluding decklid), actuate one of the following:
- Power door lock button to LOCK,
- Key fob LOCK button
- Door lock key cylinder to locked position.
- Close all opened doors. decklid can remain open.NOTE: If the decklid is open, it will not be secure. Once the decklid is closed, a separate 16 second counter will start. Once 16 seconds has been reached, the decklid will then be secure, providing a VTSS disarm request has not been received during the 16 second decklid arming period.
- After the last door is closed, an arming time-out period of sixteen seconds will start, then the VTSS will become armed.
- If a 16 second time-out sequence was in process and a new arm signal was actuated, the 16 second time-out will restart from the time of the second actuation.
If the LED indicator does not illuminate at all upon final door closure, it indicates that the system is not arming.
The current VTSS status armed or disarmed shall be maintained in memory to prevent battery disconnects from disarming the system.
