Alarm System Inoperative Genuine Accessory
Diagnostic Fault Information
Perform the
Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior
to using this diagnostic procedure.
Circuit/System Description
The alarm system integrates into the existing vehicle wiring system. The alarm
system is designed as a theft deterrent and incorporates all doors, trunk lid and
hood status sensing, ultrasonic movement sensing and vehicle inclination sensing.
When the alarm system is in an armed state and any security violation is detected,
the alarm module will sound the siren. The alarm system may be unable to initialize
due to the following :
• | Power supply or ground has open/high resistance. |
• | Tilt sensor incorrectly connected to the alarm module. |

Circuit/System Testing
Power Supply or Ground Has Open/High Resistance
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the alarm module harness connector.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 1
and ground.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground
or an open/high resistance. |
- Test for less than 1.0 Ohm of resistance between the ground circuit
terminal 6 and ground.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high
resistance. |
- Ensure that the tilt sensor mounting bracket bolts are tightened to 6 Nm.
- Disconnect the harness connecter from the tilt sensor.
- Ensure that the harness connecter terminal 2 is vacant.
- Test for less than 1.0 Ohm of resistance between the tilt sensor
harness connector terminal 4 and ground.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high
resistance. |
- Connect the alarm module harness connector. From inside the vehicle, enable
the alarm system with the remote transmitter key. Test for 9-16 volts
between the tilt sensor 12-volt reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 12-volt reference circuit for a
short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the 12-volt reference circuit for
a short to voltage. |
- Disconnect the alarm module harness connector and test for less than 1.0 Ohm
of resistance between the alarm module harness connector terminal 4 and the
tilt sensor harness connector terminal 3
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance. |
- Test for infinite resistance between the alarm module harness connector
terminal 4 and ground.
⇒ | If not the specified value, replace the alarm module harness. |
- Replace the tilt sensor and test the alarm operation.
⇒ | If alarm system is still inoperative, replace the alarm module. |
