Intrusion and Inclination
Sensors Disable Switch
It is recommended that the intrusion
and inclination sensors be
deactivated if pets are left in the
vehicle or if the vehicle is being
transported.
When the roof panel is off, or the
convertible top is down, the
intrusion system is turned off.
With the vehicle turned off, press
o
on the overhead console, next to
OnStar. The indicator light will
display momentarily, indicating that
these sensors have been disabled
until the next time the alarm system
is armed.
Immobilizer
See
Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The security light comes on in the
instrument cluster if there is a
problem with arming or disarming
the theft-deterrent system. This light
also comes on briefly when the
engine is started.
The system is automatically armed
when the ignition is turned off.
The immobilization system is
disarmed when the ignition is turned
on or placed in ACC/ACCESSORY
and a valid remote key is found in
the vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system.
The system has one or more remote
keys that are matched to an
immobilizer control unit in the
vehicle. Only a correctly matched
remote key starts the vehicle. The
vehicle may not start if the remote
key is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the
security light comes on, there may
be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Try starting the vehicle
again.
If the vehicle does not start and the
remote key appears to be
undamaged, try another remote key.
Or, place the remote key in the
cupholder backup location. See
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation
. If the engine
still does not start with the other
remote key, or with the remote key
in the cupholder backup location,
the vehicle needs service. If the
engine does start, the first remote
key may be faulty. See your dealer
or have a new remote key
programmed to the vehicle.
