Operation
Cars delivered to certain markets, including the USA market, have provision for the installation of a burglar alarm. A special cable harness and an 8-pole connector (289) for connecting the burglar alarm control unit are included.

The control unit is supplied (+30) from fuse 24 across the white 29-pole connector 152A, pin 30 of relay 151 and pin 1 of control unit 289, regardless of the position of the ignition switch, and from pin 5 (+X) when the ignition switch is in the parked, drive or start position. On the 1990 model, +X is protected by fuse 20.

To prevent the burglar alarm from being set off, the ignition key must be turned within a certain time after a car door has been opened.

The movement detector can be switched on and off by means of ON/OFF switch 288 connected to pin 7 of the control unit (earth/no earth).

If the burglar alarm is activated, the alarm will be set off if one of the following contacts should close:

- Door switches 54 connected to pin 8.

- Luggage compartment light switch 56, luggage compartment lighting 55 or the HOOD switch, which are connected to pin 6.

When the alarm is set off, the siren will be supplied via pin 4, and the parking lights via pin 3.

The parking lights are supplied via pin 20 of white 29-pole connector 152A, and include:

13 Parking lights (front)
14 Rear lights
15 Number plate illumination
234 Side marker lights (certain markets)

Note: The wiring varies from one market to the next, and between the 3-D/5-D and 2-D/4-D models (see the section entitled "Parking lights").

1. Check that the supply to connector 289 (terminals 1 and 5) is live.
2. Check ON/OFF switch 288 for the movement detector.
3. Check the door switches, luggage compartment light switch and bonnet switch, and the corresponding connections to connector 289.
4. Check the connectors, cable harnesses and earth connections.
