Active Arming Mode
For active arming mode flowchart, see Fig 1. For indicator light output, see INSPECTING INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT (ACTIVE ARMING MODE) table. Even in disarming condition, the indicator light flashes due to the signal output from the immobilizer system. The indicator always flashes receiving the signal from the immobilizer system at any time in the arming condition. The flashing frequency is 0.75 seconds when ON and 1.25 seconds when OFF.
| Condition | Indicator Light |
