Normal Operation
The passive anti-theft system (PATS) uses a visual anti-theft LED located on top of the instrument panel. The PATS anti-theft LED receives voltage from the smart junction box (SJB) through circuit 343 (DB/LG) and proves out for 3 secondswhen the key is turned to ON or START under normal operation. If there is a PATS issue, this LED either flashes rapidly or glows steadily (for more than 3 seconds) when the key is turned to ON or START. PATS also flashes the anti-theft LED every 2 seconds at ignition OFF to act as a visual anti-theft deterrent.
Possible Causes
- fuse
- circuit 343 (DB/LG) open
- anti-theft LED
- powertrain control module (PCM)
