Driveaway Protection Circuit

DRIVEAWAY PROTECTION CIRCUIT (9-93 THRU 12-93 PRODUCTION)







The first version of the required Driveaway Protection systems was an added circuit from the General Module to the DME. This added circuit was spliced into the existing BC code circuit to the DME.

When the vehicle is locked from the outside (double locked) the General Module supplies a 12 volt signal the DME to disable injection and ignition functions. Any attempt to start the vehicle without first unlocking the the vehicle will result in a no start condition.

Diagnosis and troubleshooting for no start conditions must include this variant of the driveaway protection feature on vehicles built in this production range. The status pages of the ZKE and DME will show the condition of this input as high/active or owl not active.
