DESCRIPTION
Two front impact sensors are used on this model,
one each for the left and right sides of the vehicle
(Fig. 24). These sensors are mounted remotely from
the impact sensor that is internal to the Airbag Con-
trol Module (ACM). The right and left front and side
impact sensors are identical in construction and cal-
ibration with the exception of the right-hand and
left-hand die cast aluminum mounting brackets to
which each front impact sensor is secured with two
screws. The front impact sensor brackets are secured
with three screws to the front and inboard sides of
the right and left vertical members of the radiator
support within the engine compartment.
The impact sensor housing has an integral connec-
tor receptacle and two integral mounting ears, each
with a metal sleeve to provide crush protection. A cav-
ity in the center of the molded black plastic impact
sensor housing contains the electronic circuitry of the
sensor which includes an electronic communication
chip and an electronic impact sensor. Potting material
fills the cavity to seal and protect the internal elec-
tronic circuitry and components. The front impact sen-
sors are each connected to the vehicle electrical
system through a dedicated take out and connector of
the right or left headlamp and dash wire harnesses.
The front impact sensors cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if damaged or faulty, they must be
replaced. If a front impact sensor is faulty, only the
sensor needs to be replaced. If the sensor or the sen-
sor mounting bracket is damaged or faulty, or if
proper tightening torque of the screws that secure
the sensor to the bracket cannot be achieved, the
sensor and bracket unit must be replaced.

SYSTEM
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) is
designed to provide perimeter protection against
unauthorized vehicle use or tampering by monitoring
the vehicle doors, the liftgate, the liftgate flip-up
glass, the ignition system and, only on vehicles built
for sale in certain international markets where it is
required equipment, the hood. If unauthorized vehi-cle use or tampering is detected, the system responds
by pulsing the horn and flashing the exterior lamps.
In many markets the VTSS also includes the Sentry
Key Immobilizer System (SKIS), which provides pas-
sive vehicle protection by preventing the engine from
operating unless a valid electronically encoded key is
detected in the ignition lock cylinder. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY -

DESCRIPTION - SENTRY KEY IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
Vehicles equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System (SKIS) can be identified by the presence of
an amber SKIS indicator in the instrument cluster
that will illuminate for about three seconds each
time the ignition switch is turned to the On position,
or by a gray molded rubber cap on the head of the
ignition key. Models not equipped with SKIS still
have a SKIS indicator in the cluster, but it will not
illuminate. Also, models not equipped with the SKIS
have a black molded rubber cap on the head of the
ignition key.
The SKIS includes the following major components,
which are described in further detail elsewhere in
this service manual:²Powertrain Control Module
²Sentry Key Immobilizer Module
²Sentry Key Transponder
²SKIS Indicator
Except for the Sentry Key transponders, which rely
upon Radio Frequency (RF) communication, hard
wired circuitry connects the SKIS components to the
electrical system of the vehicle.Refer to the appropri-
ate wiring information.
OPERATION
OPERATION - VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY
SYSTEM
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) is
divided into two basic subsystems: Vehicle Theft
Alarm (VTA) and Sentry Key Immobilizer System
(SKIS). The following are paragraphs that briefly
describe the operation of each of those two sub-
systems.
A Body Control Module (BCM) is used to control
and integrate many of the functions and features
included in the Vehicle Theft Security System
(VTSS). In the VTSS, the BCM receives inputs indi-
cating the status of the door ajar switches, the driver
cylinder lock switch, the ignition switch, the liftgate
ajar switches, the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch,
the power lock switches and, in vehicles so equipped,
the hood ajar switch. The programming in the BCM
allows it to process the information from all of these
inputs and send control outputs to energize or de-en-
ergize the combination flasher, the horn relay (except
vehicles with the premium version of the VTA), and
the VTSS indicator. In addition, in vehicles built for
certain markets where premium versions of the VTA
is required, the BCM also exchanges messages with
the Intrusion Transceiver Module (ITM) over the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data
buss network to provide the features found in this
version of the VTA. The control of these inputs and
outputs are what constitute all of the features of the
VTSS. Following is information on the operation of
each of the VTSS features.
ENABLING
The BCM must have the VTSS function enabled in
order for the VTSS to perform as designed. The logic
in the BCM keeps its VTSS function dormant until it
is enabled using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.
PRE-ARMING
The VTA has a pre-arming sequence. Pre-arming
occurs when a door, the tailgate, or the flip-up glass
is open when the vehicle is locked using a power lock
8Q - 2 VEHICLE THEFT SECURITYWJ
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY (Continued)

switch, or when the ªLockº button on the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is depressed. The
powerlock switch will not initiate the pre-arming
sequence if the key is in the ignition switch. When
the VTA is pre-armed, the arming sequence is
delayed until all of the doors, the tailgate and the
flip-up glass are closed.
ARMING
Passive arming of the VTSS occurs when the vehi-
cle is exited with the key removed from the ignition
switch, the headlamps are turned off, and the doors
are locked while they are open using the power lock
switch. The power lock switch will not function if the
key is in the ignition switch or the headlamps are
turned on with the driver side front door open. The
VTSS will not arm if the driver side front door is
locked using the key in the lock cylinder or using the
mechanical lock button. Active arming of the VTSS
occurs when the ªLockº button on the Remote Key-
less Entry (RKE) transmitter is depressed to lock the
vehicle, even if the doors and/or the liftgate are open
when the RKE transmitter Lock button is depressed.
However, the VTSS arming will not be complete until
all of the doors, the liftgate and the liftgate flip-up
glass are closed. On vehicles equipped with the hood
ajar switch, VTSS arming will complete if the hood is
open, but the underhood area will not be protected
unless the hood is closed when the VTSS is armed.
Following successful passive or active VTSS arm-
ing, the VTSS indicator on the top of the instrument
panel will flash rapidly for about sixteen seconds
after the illuminated entry system times out. This
indicates that VTSS arming is in progress. Once the
sixteen second arming function is successfully com-
pleted, the indicator will flash at a slower rate, indi-
cating that the VTSS is armed.
DISARMING
Passive disarming of the VTSS occurs when the
vehicle is unlocked using the key to unlock the driver
side front door. Active disarming of the VTSS occurs
when the vehicle is unlocked by depressing the
ªUnlockº button of the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter. Once the alarm has been activated,
either disarming method will also deactivate the
alarm. Depressing the ªPanicº button on the RKE
transmitter will also disarm the VTSS, but the horn
will continue to pulse and the exterior lamps will
continue to flash for about three minutes as part of
the Panic feature function. The Panic feature is over-
ridden if the ªPanicº button is depressed a second
time, or if a vehicle speed of about 24 kilometers-per-
hour (15 miles-per-hour) is attained.POWER-UP MODE
When the armed VTSS senses that the battery has
been disconnected and reconnected, it enters its pow-
er-up mode. In the power-up mode the alarm system
remains armed following a battery failure or discon-
nect. If the VTSS was armed prior to a battery dis-
connect or failure, the technician or vehicle operator
will have to actively or passively disarm the alarm
system after the battery is reconnected. The pow-
er-up mode will also apply if the battery goes dead
while the system is armed, and battery jump-starting
is then attempted. The VTSS will be armed until it is
actively or passively disarmed. If the VTSS is in the
disarmed mode prior to a battery disconnect or fail-
ure, it will remain disarmed after the battery is
reconnected or replaced, or if jump-starting is
attempted.
ALARM
The VTA alarm output varies by the version of the
VTA with which the vehicle is equipped. In all cases,
the alarm provides both visual and audible outputs;
however, the time intervals of these outputs vary by
the requirements of the market for which the vehicle
is manufactured. In all cases, the visual output will
be a flashing of the exterior lamps. For vehicles
equipped with North American or the base version of
the VTA, the audible output will be the pulsing of the
horn. For vehicles with the premium version of the
VTA, the audible output will be the cycling of the
siren. The inputs that will trigger the alarm include
the door ajar switch, the flip-up glass ajar switch,
and in vehicles built for certain markets where they
are required, the hood ajar switch and the Intrusion
Transceiver Module (ITM).
TAMPER ALERT
The VTSS tamper alert feature will sound the horn
(or the alarm siren for the premium version) three
times upon VTA disarming, if the alarm was trig-
gered and has since timed-out (about eighteen min-
utes). This feature alerts the vehicle operator that
the VTA alarm was activated while the vehicle was
unattended.
INTRUSION ALARM
The Intrusion Alarm is an exclusive feature of the
premium version of the VTA, which is only available
in certain markets, where it is required. When the
VTA is armed, a motion sensor in the Intrusion
Transceiver Module (ITM) monitors the interior of
the vehicle for movement. If motion is detected, the
ITM sends a message to the BCM over the PCI bus
to invoke the visual alarm feature, and sends a mes-
sage to the alarm siren over a dedicated serial bus to
invoke the audible alarm feature. The motion detec-

OPERATION
The Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) indica-
tor gives a visible indication of the VTSS arming sta-
tus. One side of Light-Emittiong Diode (LED) in the
VTSS indicator is connected to unswitched battery
current through a fused B(+) circuit and a fuse in the
Junction Block (JB). The other side of the LED is
hard wired to the Body Control Module (BCM), which
controls the operation of the VTSS indicator by pull-
ing this side of the LED circuit to ground. When the
VTSS arming is in progress, the BCM will flash the
LED rapidly on and off for about fifteen seconds.
When the VTSS has been successfully armed, the
BCM will flash the LED on and off continually at a
much slower rate until the VTSS has been disarmed.
The VTSS indicator can be diagnosed using conven-
tional diagnostic tools and methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - VTSS INDICATOR
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) indicator con-
dition. If the problem being diagnosed is related to
indicator accuracy, be certain to confirm that the
problem is with the indicator and not with an inop-
erative VTSS. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/VEHICLE
THEFT SECURITY - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING -
VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM). If no VTSS
problem is found, the following procedure will help to
locate a short or open in the VTSS indicator control
circuit. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

stalk is moved to the rear Wash position, the Wash
position circuitry within the switch directs battery
current to the rear washer pump/motor unit, and to
both the rear wiper motor control and rear washer
switch output signal inputs of the rear wiper module
electronic circuitry, which causes the wiper motor to
run at a fixed cycle for as long as the Wash mode is
selected plus about three additional fixed wipe cycles.
The rear wiper module electronic circuitry controls
the switching of battery current to the rear wiper
motor brush, which controls wiper motor operation.
The intermittent wipe and wipe-after-wash features
of the rear wiper and washer system are both pro-
vided by the rear wiper module electronic circuitry.
The rear wiper module electronic circuitry also mon-
itors the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch and will
park the rear wiper blade off of the glass any time it
senses that the liftgate flip-up glass is ajar, the igni-
tion switch is turned to the Off position, or the right
multi-function switch control sleeve is moved to the
Off position. This feature ensures that the rear wiper
blade will not interfere with or be damaged by the
operation of the liftgate flip-up glass. However, if the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position or the
liftgate flip-up glass is opened while the rear wiper is
operating, the right multi-function switch control
sleeve must be cycled to the Off position and back to
the On or Delay position after the ignition switch is
turned back On or the liftgate flip-up glass is closed
before the rear wiper will operate again.
Refer to the owner's manual in the vehicle glove
box for more information on the features and opera-
tion of the rear wiper and washer system.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR WIPER &
WASHER SYSTEM
WIPER SYSTEM
The diagnosis found here addresses an electrically
inoperative rear wiper system. If the rear wiper
motor operates, but the wiper does not move on the
liftgate glass, replace the faulty rear wiper module. If
the wiper operates, but chatters, lifts, or does not
clear the glass, clean and inspect the wiper system
components as required. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
REAR WIPERS/WASHERS - INSPECTION) and
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/REAR WIPERS/WASH-
ERS - CLEANING). Refer to the appropriate wiring
information. The wiring information includes wiring
diagrams, proper wire and connector repair proce-
dures, details of wire harness routing and retention,
connector pin-out information and location views for
the various wire harness connectors, splices and
grounds.WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE
ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING
COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT
DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISO-
LATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE,
THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYS-
TEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PER-
FORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS
IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG
SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR-
BAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL
INJURY.
(1) Check that the interior lighting switch on the
control stalk of the left multi-function switch is not
in the dome lamp disable position. With all four
doors and the liftgate closed, open the liftgate flip-up
glass. The interior lamps should light. If not, depress
the cargo lamp lens to actuate the cargo lamp defeat
switch and the interior lamps should light. Close all
four doors, the liftgate and the liftgate flip-up glass.
Note whether the interior lamps remain lighted.
They should turn off after about thirty seconds. If
OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, go to Step 9.
(2) Check the fused B(+) fuse (Fuse8-15ampere)
in the Junction Block (JB). If OK, go to Step 3. If not
OK, repair the shorted circuit or component as
required and replace the faulty fuse.
(3) Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse
(Fuse8-15ampere) in the JB. If OK, go to Step 4. If
not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit between
the JB and the Power Distribution Center (PDC) as
required.
(4) Check the fused ignition switch output (run-
acc) fuse (Fuse 29 - 10 ampere) in the JB. If OK, go
to Step 5. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or
component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (run-acc) fuse (Fuse 29 - 10 ampere) in the
JB. If OK, turn the ignition switch to the Off position
and go to Step 6. If not OK, repair the open fused
ignition switch output (run-acc) circuit between the
JB and the ignition switch as required.
(6) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness
connector for the right multi-function switch from the
switch connector receptacle. Reconnect the battery
negative cable. Turn the ignition switch to the On
position. Check for battery voltage at the fused igni-
tion switch output (run-acc) circuit cavity of the
instrument panel wire harness connector for the
right multi-function switch. If OK, go to Step 7. If
not OK, repair the open fused ignition switch output
