Vehicle Theft Alarm

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Dodge Avenger and 2013 Chrysler 200. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Models equipped with the export premium version of the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) provide some preliminary diagnostic feedback by illuminating the security indicator located in the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC), sometimes referred to as the Cab Compartment Node (CCN). If the security indicator illuminates with the ignition switch in the On position for approximately 15 seconds, it indicates that there is a communication problem between the intrusion module and the EMIC/CCN, or between the intrusion module and the siren module. The EMIC/CCN will also turn on the security indicator if it receives a message from the intrusion module indicating that a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) has been stored for a siren module fault.

To diagnose the EMIC/CCN, the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM), the intrusion module, the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus, or the electronic message inputs and outputs used to provide the electronic features of the VTA, use a diagnostic scan tool and refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
