BURGLAR ALARM SYSTEM
BURGLAR ALARM
ACTIVATION
Body Electrical
The burglar alarm system is integrated with the
keyless entry system. The burglar alarm system is
armed automatically after the ignition switch is turned
to the OFF position and the key removed. Then, the
ETACS module must receive signals that the doors,
hood, and trunk lid are closed and locked. When
everything is closed and locked, none of the control
unit inputs are grounded.
The door switches, hood switch, and trunk lid switch
are all open. Immediately after locking doors with the
remote transmitter, the system arms. If anything is
opened or improperly unlocked after the system is
armed, the ETACS module gets a ground signal from
that switch, and the system engine compartment
alarm horn is activated.
The burgular alarm activates when any of these things
occur:
• A door is forced open
• A door is unlocked without using the transmitter
• The trunk lid is opened without the key or RKE
• The hood is opened prior to entry to vehicle
When the system activates, the alarm (siren) sounds
and the hazard lamps flash for about two minutes or
until the system is disarmed by unlocking with the
transmitter.
If the trunk is opened using the key after the system
is armed, the doors and hood continue to be in the
armed state and the alarm will not activate. Then
after the trunk is closed, the trunk is also armed.
