Passlock®
Your vehicle is equipped with the Passlock®
theft-deterrent 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 and
the engine will not start.During normal operation, the SECURITY message, on
the instrument panel cluster, will be displayed after
the key is turned to the ON ignition position. See
Security Message on page 3-48.
If the engine stalls and the SECURITY message
ashes, wait until the light stops ashing before trying to
restart the engine.
If the engine is running and the SECURITY message
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 dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by Passlock®
at this time. You may also want to check the fuse.
SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-97. See your
dealer for service.
In an emergency, contact Roadside Assistance. See
Roadside Assistance Program on page 7-5for
more information.
