Theft System Indicator(s)
SECURITYThe Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) illuminates the SECURITY indicator in the instrument cluster as determined by the Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) system. The BCM grounds the SECURITY indicator control circuit in order to illuminate the indicator.
^ The VTD system requests the IPC to illuminate the SECURITY 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.

The Body Control Module (BCM) illuminates the theft LED (on top of the dash) based on the current Content Theft Deterrent (CTD) system operation mode. The theft LED operates in the following modes:
^ ON
