Test A: The Anti-Theft System Does Not Arm/Disarm - Using The Door Arm/Disarm Switch

PINPOINT TEST A: THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM DOES NOT ARM/DISARM - USING THE DOOR ARM/DISARM SWITCH

NOTE: The intrusion and inclination protection features cannot be activated with the door disarm switch. This allows raising the vehicle on a hoist, transporting or towing the vehicle, or when authorized motion inside the vehicle is likely.

Normal Operation
The door disarm switch is located in the driver door lock cylinder and grounds circuit 1315 (LB/PK) or circuit 1313 (LB/BK) to the smart junction box (SJB), which arms or disarms the system. The ajar switches are monitored for a ground signal by the SJB. Ground is supplied to the door disarm switch by circuit 1205 (BK). When an arm request is received by the SJB, the ajar switch positions are queried. If any door, hood, or luggage compartment lid is ajar, the turn signal lamps do not flash and the horn will chirp twice. Only the closed doors will begin the pre-arm phase, and as soon as the open body closure is closed, it will begin its pre-arm phase. If the doors, hood and luggage compartment lid are closed when the remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter LOCK button is pressed, the perimeter alarm will begin its pre-arm phase of 20 seconds. After the pre-arm phase, the system will be armed.

- DTC B1833 (Door Unlock Disarm Switch Circuit Short To Ground) - sets when there is a short to ground on circuit 1313 (LB/BK) or if the door disarm switch is shorted internally.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Door disarm switch
