Anti-Theft Indicator LED

Whenever the ignition is switched on the LED will remain on for three seconds while the system carries out a self-test and then extinguish.

The LED will flash rapidly to indicate the PATS has immobilized the vehicle.

A fault on the PATS which enables the engine to start will be indicated by illuminating the LED continuously for one minute, and then flash the PATS fault code ten times. If the engine cannot be started (disabled by the PATS) the LED will flash fast for one minute, followed by the PATS fault code ten times.

For additional information on the PATS fault codes, refer to Testing and Inspection. Testing and Inspection
