Testing the Alarm

To test the alarm:
1. From inside the vehicle, activate the system by
locking the doors with the RKE transmitter.
2. Unlock the door with the manual door lock and
open the door. This should set off the alarm.
3. To turn the alarm off, press the unlock button on
the RKE transmitter or start the engine.
If the alarm does not sound when it should but the lights
flash, check to see if the horn works. The horn fuse
may be blown. To replace the fuse, see Fuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 6-111.
If the alarm does not sound or the front turn
signal lamps do not flash, see your dealer/retailer

Passlock (U.S. Only)
®
Passlock is a passive theft-deterrent system that
enables fuel if the vehicle is started with a valid key.
If an incorrect key is used or the ignition lock cylinder is
tampered with, the fuel system is disabled and the
vehicle does not start.
The security light turns off approximately five seconds
after the engine is started. See Security Light on
page 4-32.
If the engine stalls and the security light flashes, wait
about 10 minutes until the light stops flashing before
trying to restart the engine. Release the key from
START as soon as the engine starts.
If the engine does not start after three tries, the vehicle
needs service.
If the engine is running and the security light comes on,
the engine restarts if you turn the engine off. However,
®
the Passlock system is not working properly and
must be serviced by your dealer/retailer. The vehicle is
not protected by Passlock
dealer/retailer for service.
In an emergency, call the Roadside Assistance Center.
See Roadside Assistance Program on page 8-7.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.
