Security Lamp/Indicator: Description and Operation

SECURITY INDICATOR

The IPC illuminates the SECURITY indicator in the message center as determined by the Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) system. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the theft deterrent controller module requesting illumination.
- The VTD system requests the IPC to illuminate the indicator only when the ignition switch is ON. The VTD system uses the indicator as a malfunction indicator.
- The Content Theft Deterrent (CTD) system uses the theft LED and does not use the SECURITY indicator.
