Vehicle Theft Security System

VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM






The VTSS system monitors the door ajar switches, and ignition switch to detect unauthorized entry into the vehicle. Once the vehicle is "armed", any one of these inputs can cause the VTSS system to be tripped. Once tripped, the horn and lights will pulse for 3 minutes and if an attempt is made to start the engine with a non-programmed SKIM key, it will start and stall. If the trigger condition is still present, the lights will continue to flash for an additional 15 minutes, after which the system will stop pulsing the lights and return to the "armed" state. The cause of the last 4 alarm triggers is stored by the CTM and may be retrieved by the DRBIII(R). The system may be disarmed by either an unlock command from a valid RKE key fob by using a key in either door, or by using a valid SKIM key in the ignition. The door key cylinders are equipped with disarm switches. There is also a VTSS lamp on the dash that provides information to the driver about the state of the vehicle theft system.
