Tripped sensor identification
The security indicator light flashes when the alarm system has been triggered.
Also, the number of flashes indicates the location of unauthorized intrusion or the severity of impact on the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the indicator light will light for 1 second and then flash as follows.
- When a door or rear gate was opened:
5 times
- When the ignition switch was turned to
the “ON” position: 3 times
- When a strong impact or multiple
impacts were sensed: twice (only vehicles
with shock sensors (dealer option))
- When a light impact was sensed: once
(only vehicles with shock sensors (dealer
option))
NOTE
Any of the above indicator light flashings
will recur each time the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position.
Rearming the alarm system cancels the flashing.
