CENTRAL LOCKING BUTTON
The  central  lock  button  in  the  center  console
provides a momentary ground input signal to the
GM. 
• This input initiates a single lock for each  door
and the trunk. 
• The  fuel  filler  flap  remains  unlocked  for
refueling purposes.  
• If  a  door  is  manually  opened  while  centrally
locked, the remaining doors stay locked.  
The opened door can be re-locked when closed by manually locking or pushing the central
button twice.  This allows the locks of the remaining doors to be re-synchronized again.
As an additional safety feature, the central lock button input also unlocks a double locked
system.    Pressing  the  button  returns  the  system  to  central  lock  (single)  position,  allowing
the doors to be opened when the interior door handles are opened twice.  This feature was
also added to other ZKE systems during the 1999 model year.
CRASH SIGNALLING
The  Multiple  Restraint  System  (MRS  III)  provides  a  switched  signal  to  the  GM  in  the  event
of an accident.    The signal is an output function of the MRS control module and becomes
active when MRS determines a crash has occurred.  
When  active,  the  GM  unlocks  the  door  lock  actuators,  switches  on  the  interior  lights  and
signals the LCM III via the K bus to activate the hazard warning flashers.
Once the crash signal is active, the GM will not respond to lock requests from the system
until the ignition switch is cycled or a front door is opened.

ALARM SIREN
The  siren  is  located  in  the  vehicle  cowl
on the driver’s side of the vehicle.  This
location provides a secure position with
loud acoustic output. 
The  siren  contains  electronic  circuitry
for  producing  the  warning  tone  when
the  alarm  is  triggered.    The  siren  also
contains  a  rechargeable  battery  that  is
used to power the siren when the alarm
is triggered.  
The  rechargeable  battery  will  allow  the  siren  to  sound  if  it  or  the
vehicle’s battery is dis-connected.  The siren battery is recharged,
from the vehicle’s battery when DWA is not in the armed state.
The siren has four wires connecting it to the system; KL 30, KL 31,
Signal STDWA (arm/disarm signal from GM), and Signal NG (acti-
vate siren output signal to the GM)
The arm/disarm output signal from the GM (STDWA) is provided to the Tilt sensor, FIS sen-
sor and the siren simultaneously.  The arm/disarm signal is a switched ground that signals
the components of DWA armed/disarmed status.
The  activate  siren  signal  (NG)  is  high  whether  DWA  is  armed  or  disarmed.    If  a  monitored
input  activates  the  alarm,    the  high  signal  to  the  siren  is  switched  to  a  50%  duty  cycle  at
the  GM.    The  control  circuitry  in  the  siren  activates  the  siren  driver.      If  the  DWA  is  armed
and the battery is disconnected the siren recognizes the normally high “NG” signal as sud-
denly going low, the siren is also activated.
