Security Indicator Operation

The IPC illuminates the SECURITY indicator in the message center as determined by the Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) system. The IPC receives a 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. The CTD system uses the theft LED to identify system status only when the ignition switch is OFF.
