Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it can make it
impossible to steal.
Passlock
®
Your vehicle is equipped with the Passlock
®
theft-deterrent system.
This light will come on for
the theft-deterent system.
Passlock
®
is a passive theft-deterrent system.
Passlock
®
enables fuel if the ignition lock cylinder is
turned with a valid key. If a correct key is not used or the
ignition lock cylinder is tampered with, fuel is disabled.
During normal operation, the security light will go off
approximately five seconds after the key is turned
to RUN following an engine start.
If the engine stalls and the security light flashes, wait
until the light stops flashing before trying to restart
the engine. Remember to release the key from START
as soon as the engine starts.
If the engine is running and the security light comes on,
you will be able to restart the engine if you turn the
engine off. However, your Passlock
®
system is
not working properly and must be serviced by your
retailer. Your vehicle is not protected by Passlock
®
at
this time. You may also want to check the fuses,
see Fuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-93. See your
retailer for service. Also, see Roadside Assistance
Program on page 7-5 for more information.
