Security Indicator Light Circuit

~2min read
DESCRIPTION
  • When the theft deterrent system is in the disarmed state, the security indicator light flashes continuously when the engine immobiliser system is set, and does not illuminate when the engine immobiliser system is not set.

    When the theft deterrent system is in the armed state, the engine immobiliser system is automatically set and the security indicator light flashes continuously.

    When the theft deterrent system is in the arming preparation state or alarm sounding state, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) causes the security indicator light to be illuminated.
