Alarm Activation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Suzuki Swift +, 2005 Pontiac Wave, and 2005 Chevrolet Aveo. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The armed system activates by sounding the horn and intermittently cycling the lights in unison with the opening of the hood, rear compartment lid or any door. The remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR) senses the door opening through the door contact switch. The RCDLR senses the hood opening through the hood contact switch. This alarm can be armed with the windows either open or closed since the system activation is dependent on the door, hood, or rear compartment lid opening. The alarm disarms only when a door opens with the key or with the transmitter.
