Anti-Theft - Active (G2298876): Operation: Disarming

The Body Control Module/Gateway Module (BCM/GWM) automatically arms and disarms the anti-theft system when it operates the Central Door Locking (CDL) system. The BCM/GWM also locks and unlocks the Electric Steering Column Lock (ESCL) (if equipped) when it operates the CDL system.

On vehicles without a volumetric sensor, only the perimeter mode is available to monitor the hinged panels and the validity of the smart key.

When perimeter sensing is active, the BCM/GWM monitors aperture ajar switches. The ajar switches are located in the latch mechanisms of the doors, in the tailgate and hood latch.

When volumetric sensors are active, the BCM/GWM monitors the passenger compartment of the vehicle for movement using a volumetric sensor located the front overhead console.

When the tilt sensors are active, the BCM/GWM monitors the vehicle for raising using an inclination sensor located within the Battery Back-up Sounder (BBUS).
