Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 GMC Sierra and 2007 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The security indicator acts as a status indicator for the content theft deterrent (CTD) system when the ignition if OFF and a fault indicator for the immobilizer system with the ignition ON. When either the body control module (BCM) or theft deterrent module (TDM) requires the security indicator to be illuminated, a serial data message is sent to the instrument panel cluster (IPC), which will illuminate the indicator.
