Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Battery Saver
The SJB provides automatic shut-off of some system controlled components after a time-out period in order to save battery voltage. A timer in the SJB is started when the ignition is turned OFF and all the doors are closed. When 10 minutes have elapsed, the voltage is automatically shut off by the SJB. While the SJB has voltage disabled, if the ignition changed out of OFF, any door becomes ajar, the UNLOCK button of the RKE transmitter is pressed, a valid keypad code is entered, or the instrument panel dimmer switch is pressed, the SJB restores voltage and starts the timer again.
