Antitheft Signal: Description and Operation

On vehicles equipped with the optional Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA) a set lamp is located in the cluster. This lamp is powered by the F33 circuit and protected by a 20 amp fuse located in cavity 7 of the junction block.

The Body Control Module (BCM) controls the ground path for the lamp on the G69 circuit. When the system is ARMING and SET the BCM grounds the G69 circuit and the lamp illuminates.
