Keyless Security System,
Optional
General Information
The optional Meritor keyless security system is a
complete vehicle security system. If installed, it locks
and unlocks the doors, protects against theft, and
provides security for the driver while sleeping or rest-
ing inside the vehicle.
The system consists of the following components:
•
A hand-held radio frequency transmitter that
looks like a key chain fob. It acts as a remote
control for locking the doors, unlocking the
doors, or placing the system on alert. Each
system allows as many as four different fobs.
See
Fig. 3.9
.
•
A red system-status LED (light-emitting diode)
mounted on the overhead panel above the
clock. The LED flashes slow or fast to indicate
what state the system is in: armed, alert,
alarmed, or violated. It is off when the system
is disarmed. See
Fig. 3.10
.
•
A Meritor relay module mounted behind the
right-hand B-pillar electrical compartment door
that arms and disarms the system and pro-
grams the fobs.
•
A program switch on the Meritor relay module
that places the relay module in the learning
mode, which is the only state in which the sys-
tem can learn fob ID codes. The switch is
shown in its normal, or OFF, state (toggle
pointing up). See
Fig. 3.11
.
•
A security system electronic control module
(ECM), also mounted behind the right-hand
