various functions of your system.

the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which
monitors your vehicle and controls all of the system's functions.
Fail Safe Starter Kill

rity system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking
whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from
cranking when the system is disarmed, in Valet
®

the starter interrupt switch itself fail. Your system is ready for this
feature, however installation may require additional labor.

provided by a sensor, pinswitch or through an existing system in
the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.

compartment of the vehicle. It is responsible for generating the
