Door Lock Cylinder Switch: Description and Operation
The Door Cylinder Lock Switch (if equipped) is used to:
-
Unlock/Lock all the doors via the Central Locking feature.
-
Arm/Disarm the Vehicle Theft Security System.
-
Trigger the Illuminated Entry feature.
The door cylinder lock switch is mounted to the rear of the driver door lock cylinder. When installed on the rear of the cylinder, there is an anti-rotating
device on the lock cylinder that aligns with the switch to prevent it from turning. The door cylinder lock switch is a one time use switch. Once it is
removed from the rear of the door lock cylinder, it may not be reinstalled and a new switch must be used.
When the Door Cylinder Lock Switch (if equipped) is turned either way using the door key cylinder, the Driver Door Module (DDM) reads a direct
message signal from the switch.
Turning the key cylinder once, toward the front of the vehicle, will:
1. Mechanically unlock the door lock.
2. Disarm the Vehicle Theft Security System (if equipped).
3. Turn on the Illuminated Entry (if equipped) for approximately 30 seconds.
If the key cylinder is turned to the unlock position (toward the front of vehicle) twice within two seconds, all the doors and liftgate will unlock (if
equipped with the central locking feature).
To lock the vehicle using the door cylinder lock switch, turn the key cylinder toward the rear of the vehicle once. This will lock the door that you are
using the key on. If equipped with the central locking feature, this will lock all the other doors and liftgate, arm the vehicle theft security system and turn
off the illuminated entry.
