FORCED DOOR LOCK CONTROL

(a) The forced door lock control prevents the vehicle from being tampered with. Immediately after a door is unlocked (armed state), all doors are forced to lock by a forced door lock signal.

(1) If the following conditions are met, the forced door lock control is operated.

  • The theft deterrent system is in the armed state.
  • Any door is unlocked.

ALARM MEMORY FUNCTION

(a) If the alarm is set off (tampering is detected) while the theft deterrent system is in the armed state, it will be stored by the alarm memory function. Whenever the theft deterrent system is canceled, the alarm memory function causes the taillights to light up for 2 seconds in order to inform the user that the alarm has been set off.

(1) Condition that cause the taillights to light up for 2 seconds:

The theft deterrent system has entered the alarm sounding state (tampering has been detected) at least once.

HINT:

Active arming mode: See Active Arming Mode.

PANIC ALARM CONTROL

(a) Panic alarm control makes it possible to voluntarily set off the panic alarm by pressing the panic switch on the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly.

(1) Conditions that cause panic alarm control to set off the panic alarm:

The panic switch on the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is pressed under the following conditions:

  • The power switch is off.
  • The theft deterrent system is not in the alarm sounding state.

(2) Conditions that cause the panic alarm control to shut off the alarm:

Any of the following conditions is met during panic alarm control operation:

  • The power switch is turned on (IG).
  • The panic switch is pressed again.
  • Any of the switches on the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly (lock/unlock/back door open) is pressed.
  • The panic alarm ends (approximately 57 seconds have elapsed).
  • The theft deterrent system switches to the alarm sounding state. Under this condition, the theft deterrent system controls the alarm rather than the panic alarm control. In order to cancel this alarm, refer to the theft deterrent system alarm sounding state cancellation procedure.

THEFT WARNING SIREN ASSEMBLY (w/o Security Horn Assembly)

(a) The theft warning siren assembly has an internal battery. If power to the theft warning siren assembly is interrupted or the communication line is open, the theft warning siren assembly detects it and sounds the alarm using the internal battery.

(b) The theft warning siren assembly has the following alarm controls: normal alarm control and open circuit alarm control. Under normal alarm control, the alarm sounds based on instructions from the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) whereas under open circuit alarm control, the theft warning siren assembly judges current security conditions and sounds the alarm by itself.

(1) Normal alarm control

The theft warning siren assembly sounds when the theft deterrent system is in the alarm sounding state and does not sound when the system is not in the alarm sounding state.

HINT:

If communication interruption between the theft warning siren assembly and main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) continues for 70 seconds or more while the theft deterrent system is in the alarm sounding state, the theft warning siren assembly stops sounding.

(2) Open circuit alarm control

The theft warning siren assembly changes between the disarmed state and armed state in accordance with the theft deterrent system changes between the disarmed state and armed state. If the power source, ground or communication line is open while the theft warning siren assembly is in the armed state, the theft warning siren assembly sounds.

During the open circuit alarm sounding state, the theft warning siren assembly sounds intermittently for 28 seconds and then stops for 5 seconds. This pattern repeats a maximum of 9 times.

The intermittent sounding will stop when either condition is met:

1. The theft warning siren assembly changes to the disarmed state.

2. The open circuit is returned to normal.

SECURITY INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT

(a) According to the state of the theft deterrent system, the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) outputs a signal to turn the security indicator light on. However, some of the actual lighting conditions of the security indicator light are different from the output signals of the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU).
