The anti-theft indicator alerts the operator that a theft system malfunction has occurred or that the anti-theft system is armed when the ignition switch is in the OFF position. The anti-theft indicator operates with a message over the communication network from the powertrain control module (PCM) when the ignition switch is in the RUN or START position and is controlled by the instrument cluster in the OFF and ACC positions.
