Refer to REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY AND ALARM for schematic and connector information.
When the alarm system is armed, the Body Control Module (BCM) monitors the hood switch. If the hood is opened while the alarm is armed, the hood switch removes ground from the signal circuit. This signals the BCM that an unauthorized intrusion to the engine compartment has occurred and the BCM activates the perimeter alarm.
