Anti-Theft Status Warning Lamp

Anti-theft status warning lamp







The anti-theft status warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a red LED and a clear legend.

The BCU illuminates the LED when the vehicle anti-theft system is active.

This provides a warning to potential thieves that the vehicle is protected by a security system.

When the ignition is switched on, the ECM illuminates the LED to provide a self-check, providing there is no fault it will remain illuminated until the engine is started or the ignition is switched off

The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 13. The BCU controls the earth path to illuminate the warning lamp.

The voltage on the earth path from the BCU to the instrument pack will be less than 1 volt when the anti-theft status is enabled.
