Content Theft Deterrent Functions

The Body Control Module (BCM) type 4 features a content theft deterrent system which is designed to deter vehicle vandalism and theft. The content theft deterrent system perform these functions:
^ Flashes the headlamps.
^ Sounds the horn.
^ Disables fuel delivery to the engine.

The BCM monitors the status of the doors, lock cylinders, rear compartment lid, shock sensor, power door locks, and the keyless entry system.

The BCM operates the headlamps, horn, and the theft deterrent indicator lamp according to the mode of operation the system is in. The BCM also communicates a fuel enable signal to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) when the system is disarmed.
