Theft System Indicator(s)
SECURITY
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 requests the IPC to illuminate the indicator only when the ignition switch is OFF. The CTD system uses the indicator to identify system status. |
