Door Ajar Switches

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Pontiac Torrent and 2009 Chevrolet Equinox. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The CTD system uses the door ajar switches as a status indicator to activate the alarm. The door ajar switches are monitored by the BCM via a discrete input from each door ajar switch. If the BCM receives a signal indicating a door is opened when the CTD system is armed, the BCM activates the alarm.
