4WD GMC SONOMA 2000 Owner's Manual

2-65 Security Warning Light
This light will come on
briefly when you turn the
key toward START. The
light will stay on until the
engine starts.
If the light flashes, the Passlock

system has entered a
tamper mode. If the vehicle fails to start, see ªPasslockº
in the Index.
If the light comes on continuously while driving and
stays on, there may be a problem with the Passlock
system. Your vehicle will not be protected by Passlock,
and you should see your dealer.
Also see ªContent Theft
-Deterrentº in the Index for
additional information regarding the SECURITY light.
Service Four-Wheel-Drive Warning Light
If your vehicle is equipped with the Automatic
Four
-Wheel-Drive Transfer Case, it has a computer
which controls the four
-wheel-drive system.
This light should come on
briefly when you turn on the
ignition, as a check to show
you it is working.
The SERVICE 4WD light comes on to indicate that
there may be a problem with the four
-wheel-drive
system and service is required. Malfunctions can be
indicated by the system before any problem is apparent,
which may prevent serious damage to the vehicle. This
system is also designed to assist your service technician
in correctly diagnosing a malfunction.

* If your vehicle is equipped with RPO V4A
(Xtreme
Sport Appearance Package), your vehicle
was neither intended nor designed to tow a trailer. For
more information on RPO codes, see ªService Parts
Identification Labelº in the Index.# If your vehicle is equipped with a code 5 engine
you must use regular unleaded gasoline rated at
87 octane or higher when towing.
Optional body styles, equipment, passengers or cargo
will reduce trailer rating.
Maximum trailer weight is calculated assuming the
driver and one passenger are in the tow vehicle and it
has all the required trailering equipment. The weight of
additional optional equipment, passengers and cargo in
the tow vehicle must be subtracted from the maximum
trailer weight. The weight of the trailer tongue also
affects trailering capacity. See ªWeight of the Trailer
Tongueº later in this section.
You can ask your dealer for our trailering information or
advice, or you can write us at the address listed in your
Warranty and Owner Assistance Information Booklet.
