Information Sheet 2 Security and Ancillary system/ components

Electrical Security System


Car alarm system
The main purpose of a car alarm is to prevent the theft of your personal belongings
within the vehicle and to prevent the theft of the vehicle itself.

Car alarms work by emitting high-volume sound (often a vehicle-mounted siren, pre-
recorded verbal warning, the vehicle's own horn, or a combination of these) when the
conditions necessary for triggering it are met.
Alarm brain/control unit
The module will be the control center of the security system. The car alarm brain is
essentially a computer that receives and sends commands, and is the main component
in an alarm system. The brain gets its power from the ignition harness or the battery but
can also be protected with a battery backup for extra security. All of the components in
the system are connected to the brain; and the brain monitors all of them constantly.
The alarm brain will included plugs or ports for inputs and outputs. Mounting the module
in the vehicles interior compartment, secure, and not easily accessible is ideal.
Moisture, vibration and temperature are factors in placement of the module.

Siren
A siren provides a significantly louder noise in the alarm system. This will bring more
attention and lessen the chance of a thief sticking around while the siren is going off.
Sirens will come in different decibels rating, the average type used in security systems
will be 120 decibels. Installing the siren under the hood and away from as much
element exposure as possible enhances the sirens performance.

Remote transmitter
Remotes are used to send lock, unlock, and trunk release commands to the vehicle. A
2-way remote can receive confirmations back from the brain confirming commands or
alerting to driver possible theft in progress.
The device needed to control the security system would a coded transmitter that would
arm and disarm the system and in some applications used to operate the stand alone
keyless entry, unlock and lock operation.

Tilt/shock sensor
The tilt/shock sensor detects impact and vehicle tilt. The shock sensor will be triggered
when there is impact to vehicle. The tilt sensor is will trigger the alarm if vehicle is being
towed or jacked up.

Fuse

Fuses should be used in every circuit to protect the wiring from overheating and
damage caused by excessive current flow as a result of a short circuit or other

Relay
A relay is a magnetic switch that uses a movable armature to control a high-amperage
circuit by using a low-amperage electrical switch.

LED light
An interior LED light will indicate that have a security system. Car thieves are not as
likely to attempt theft of the vehicle if they know vehicle have a security system installed.
A Light Emitting Diode is a visual status of the security system plus a deterrent notifying
that the vehicle is secured. The LED emits blinking sequences for status and
programming purposes. The install will require drilling an opening, highly visible, to
mount and wire it to the main module.

Valet/override switch
These switches are usually mounted in the interior area, out of view, and easy
accessible. The switch will control the valet feature and possible programming.
Activating this switch will place the system in bypass mode in the event for repair or lost
transmitters.

Pin Switches
Pin switches are used on doors, hood, trunk and any opening that can accommodate
them. Often these are optional switches added for additional protection of the vehicle.

Central door lock system
It is the means via which the vehicle doors and boot lid are locked and unlocked and the
engine is started. The locking system is operated with a key or remote control. A key
with infrared or wireless remote control. This means that they can be triggered remotely,
i.e. without contact between key and vehicle. Today, most vehicle manufacturers only fit
a lock which can be operated with a key in one door, so the car can be unlocked in an
emergency. The very latest systems enable entirely keyless vehicle access. Drivers
only need to have the transmitter in their pockets, for example. The doors are then
unlocked when the driver touches a door handle which has a built-in contact point.
The locking system comprises the following components:

Door handle/Handle strip


The door handle is the traditional means by which a vehicle is opened and closed from
inside or outside. The external door strip usually houses the door lock. Door strips are
increasingly used as design elements in modern cars. They can be chrome-plated or
paint-finished in the same colour as the vehicle.

Door lock/Actuator
The latching mechanism in a vehicle is installed directly in its doors. It contains both a
latch and an electric motor (actuator) which controls the central locking. The latch opens
or closes the doors, whereas the door lock locks or unlocks the vehicle. Today, all door
latches are powered by electric drives.

Fuel filler cap
The fuel filler cap must securely seal the fuel tank. Some fuel filler caps have locks,
others do not. Fuel filler caps with locks are usually found on vehicles which have either
a fuel filler flap which does not lock or no fuel filler flap at all. Fuel filler caps without
locks are found on vehicles whose fuel filler flap is locked automatically via the central
locking system.

Door triggers sensing


Door trigger sensing will trigger the alarm if the doors of your vehicle are opened when
the security system is armed. Door trigger sensing is not just limited to driver and
passenger doors; it can also be used to detect trunk/hatch entry as well as hood entry.

Remote control
Remote controls are being used with increasing frequency in small cars, replacing the
functions of a conventional key to all intents and purposes. A signal transmitter sends a
signal or a coded order instruction to a receiver inside the vehicle, which usually
controls a number of functions. Infrared remote controls have a range of up to 15 m.
They rely on direct "visual" contact between transmitter and receiver. Today, infrared
remote controls are only used rarely as they have been overtaken by other
technologies. Wireless remote controls transmit on radio frequencies and have a range
of up to approximately 100 m.

Keys
The basic function of keys and remote controls is the locking and unlocking of doors,
luggage compartments, fuel filler caps, etc. they are also used to control the interior
lighting, electronic immobilizer, alarm system and the window lifters.
The keys comprise two units: the milled, toothed key blade and the key bow. The latter
is home to an increasing number of electronic functions such as the remote control for
the central locking system or the boot lid.
Start/stop system
Traditionally, a vehicle key was needed to unlock the steering lock and to start the
engine. Subsequently, the vehicle key was enhanced with the addition of a transponder-
based release mechanism for the electronic immobiliser. Today, keyless systems are
increasingly being used to start engines. In a keyless system, a transmitter – which
usually also houses the controller for the central locking – is inserted into a reader in the
vehicle and the engine is then started by pressing a button. A more recent development
has seen the use of systems that work without any contact at all. Here, it is sufficient to
simply "take along" the transmitter (carrying it in a trouser pocket, for example) and
press the pedals before starting the engine by pressing a button.
Steering lock
They provide protection against theft. They are the means by which the steering column
is unlocked and the engine is started – either electrically or in by conventional
mechanical means.

Immobilizer
The engine immobilizer system is a theft deterrent system for vehicles. This system
prohibits the engine from starting by igniting the engine and injecting fuel when any keys
other than the ignition key with an ID code* previously registered in the vehicle is used.
While the engine immobilizer system is set, the security indicator light flashes to indicate
that the system is set.
The engine immobilizer system consists of the transponder chip, transponder key coil,
transponder key amplifier, transponder key ECU, engine ECU, etc. There are two types
of engine immobilizer systems:
 Controls by a separate ECU (transponder key ECU), and
 Controls by an ECU (engine ECU) that is integrated with the transponder key
ECU.
An immobilizer is an electronic security device fitted to an automobile that prevents the
engine from running unless the correct transponder car key is present. The transponder
key ECU control type engine immobilizer system consists of the following components.

Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019
Page 13
Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
Transponder
The transponder is usually integrated inside the key bow. It is the means by which the
electronic immobilizer identifies that the correct key is being used. The transponder's
code is read out as the key nears the ignition lock. If the code is correct, the electronic
immobilizer sends the start enable to the engine.
Ignition key (Transponder chip is built in)
The coil in the transponder chip built in the key reacts to the magnetic field produced by
the transponder key coil. As a result, electricity is charged and an ID code is
transmitted. Therefore, it is not necessary for the transponder chip to use a battery.
Ignition keys are classified into ignition key all-in-one type and separate type. The
transponder chip of the separate type is built in the transmitter.
Transponder key coil
The transponder key coil produces a magnetic field around the ignition key cylinder and
receives the ID code of the key.
Transponder key amplifier
According to the signal from the transponder key ECU, the transponder key amplifier
allows the current to flow into the key coil and makes it produce a magnetic field. The
transponder key amplifier outputs the ID code of key received by the transponder key
coil to the transponder key ECU.
Transponder key ECU
Transponder key ECU receives the ID code of key from the transponder key amplifier
and checks it with the registered ID code. According to the result of the check, it
determines whether the engine can be started and transmits the signal to the engine
ECU. This ECU controls the security indicator light to flash/go off.
Engine ECU
According to the engine start permission signal from the transponder key ECU, the
engine ECU starts the engine.
Key unlock warning switch
This switch detects that the key is inserted into the ignition key cylinder and outputs the
signal to the transponder key ECU.

Principle operation
1. When turning the ignition key to ON position, the ECU transmits the challenge
message to the immobilizer unit (to verify whether the key is valid).

Immobilizer and Warning Lamp:


This indicator comes on when the ignition key is communicating with the engine control
unit (during engine starting) and goes out after starting the engine.
 Lamp ON: in communication
 Blinking twice for one second: immobilizer system failure
 Blinking once for two seconds: immobilizer unit is not coded
2. The immobilizer unit transmits the encrypted code to the transponder.

3. The transponder sends an encrypted signal to the unit as a response.

4. The transmitted code is changed to an encrypted signal in the unit.


5. The system compares the signal from transponder and the encrypted signal in
immobilizer unit.

Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
6. Only when the two signals are identical, it recognizes the key as the authorized one
and transmits the positive message to the ECU.

7. The ECU enables the engine to be started.

Car audio system
Car audio is used to provide in-car entertainment and information for the vehicle
occupants.
Components and terms
Head unit: includes the screen and buttons. It is the centerpiece of the car's sound and
information system. Typically located in the center of the dashboard, modern head units
are densely integrated electronic packages housed in detachable face plates. As high-
end head units are common targets for theft, many head units are typically integrated
into the vehicle's alarm system.

Head units give the user control over the vehicle's information and entertainment media:
AM/FM radio, satellite radio, DVDs/CDs, cassette tapes, USB MP3, Dashcams, GPS
navi, Bluetooth, WiFi etc. Many audio-only head units afford the user precise control
over detailed audio functions such as volume, band, frequency, speaker balance,
speaker fade, bass, treble, EQ and so on.
Connectors for car audio, Harness Adapter are used.

Amplifiers
Amplifiers increase the power level of audio signals. Some head units have built-in
stereo amplifiers. Other car audio systems use a separate stand-alone amplifier. Every
Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019
Page 17
Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
amplifier has a rated power level sometimes noted on the head unit with the built in
amplifier, or on the label of a stand-alone unit.
Speakers

Speakers take an amplified electrical signal and convert it into mechanical energy that
moves the speaker cone back and forth to create sound. Sound is essentially vibrations
in the air that we hear, and a speaker cone creates these vibrations. The human ear
hears these vibrations in a frequency range from about 20 hertz (very low bass) to
20,000 Hz.

Damping: sound deadening material is often used in the door cavities and boot/trunk
area to damp excess vibration of the panels in the car in response to loud subwoofer
bass tones, especially the boot/trunk

Fog and special lamps


Regular headlights can reflect off the fog, snow, or dust particles in the air, causing
glare and confusing the eyes of drivers so that they cannot see the road adequately.
Fog lights, as their name suggests, were developed for use in dangerously thick fog.
They can also be used for other conditions in which visibility is severely limited. Fog
lights are completely separate units from standard headlights
Fog Light Beams
Fog lights have a unique beam shape. Their beams are flat and wide, and they are
positioned low on the car, usually near the front bumper. The shape of the fog light
beams usually resembles a narrow bar. They are meant to cut through the fog and light
up the surface of the road so that drivers can see well enough to stay on the road and

Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019
Page 18
Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
within their lane. In addition to fog and mist, fog lights are also useful where there are
significant amounts of dust and snow on the road, either drifting in through the air or
being churned up from the surface of the road. Without fog lights, drivers might not see
obstacles such as tree branches, wild animals, or debris in time to avoid them.
Front and Rear Fog Lights
Vehicles are typically equipped with both front and rear fog lights. Those in the front
extend the driver’s visibility range as far as possible directly ahead of the car. However,
even if the driver can see the road ahead, other drivers may not be able to distinguish
objects clearly through the fog, mist, smoke, or other hazardous conditions. The fog
lights installed at the back of the car serve to warn other drivers of the car’s presence.
Usually, the rear fog lights are wired on a separate circuit, apart from the rest of the
car’s lighting.
Front fog lights are use in extremely poor visibility. Proper front fog lights are mounted
low down on the bodywork, and are angled down at a steeper angle than normal
headlights. The beam pattern is wide and flat, with a distinct cutoff at the top-this
reduces the amount of light reflecting off the fog. By switching the low-beam lights off,
the driver can use the fog lights to illuminate the road directly in front of them, so they
can proceed at low speed.

Gauges and instruments

A dashboard is a control panel located under the windshield of an automobile. It


contains gauges and instrumentation which is displays various conditions of car and
engine conditions.
The instrument and gauge cluster contains gauges such as a speedometer, tachometer,
odometer, fuel gauge, and indicators such as a gear shift position, seat belt warning
light, and engine malfunction light. Also heating and ventilation controls and vents,
lighting controls, and audio equipment. In more modern cars, automotive navigation
systems are mounted in the dashboard.

Speedometer
Speedometer is located at the back of the driving wheel. It measures the instantaneous
speed of the vehicle which is showing the speed of the vehicle in kilometers per hour
(Km/hr). The cable is connected on one side to the speedometer, and on the other side
to the speedometer gear inside the transmission.

Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019
Page 21
Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
Now-a-days, almost all vehicles have eliminated the cable and use an electronic sensor
to measure wheel speed and send the signal to an electronically driven speedometer.
Vehicles with electronic speedometers, the computer has settings to for speedometer
calibration when necessary, to allow a technician to adjust for different sized tires.
Tachometer
Tachometer is an instrument that measures the rotation speed of a shaft or wheel in a
vehicle. The device usually displays the revolutions per minute (RPM) on a calibrated
analog dial. Tachometer showing engine RPM (revolutions per minute), and a redline
from 6000 and 7000 RPM.

Usually, the tachometer shows single digit markings like 1, 2, 3 etc. somewhere; one
will also see an indicator that says RPM x 1000. This means that one multiplies the
reading by 1000 to get the actual RPM, so if the needle is pointing to 2, the engine is
running at 2000 RPM.
Odometer
An odometer is a device used for indicating distance traveled by a vehicle. It may be
electronic or mechanical.

Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
Fuel gauge
A fuel gauge is used to indicate the level of fuel contained in a tank. The gauge
consists of two parts in any car: the sender unit and the indicator.

The sending unit usually uses a float connected to a variable resistor. When the tank is
full, the resistor is set to its low resistance value. As the tank empties, the float drops
and the slides a moving contact along the resistor, increases its resistance, finally
reaches its highest value when the tank is empty. In addition, when the resistance is at
a certain point, it will also turn on a "low fuel" light on some vehicles.
The indicator unit (usually mounted on the instrument panel) is measuring and
displaying the amount of electrical current flowing through the sending unit. When the
tank level is high and maximum current is flowing, the needle points to "F" indicating a
full tank. When the tank is empty and the least current is flowing, the needle points to
"E" indicating an empty tank.

Oil Pressure Gauge


This warning light or gauge signals you when the oil is not circulating through the engine
at the proper pressure. However, it does not tell you the amount of oil in the engine.

Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019

Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
Temperature Gauge
This gauge measures the temperature of the engine coolant in degrees. When one first
starts the car, the gauge will read cold. Then turns the heater on when the engine is
cold, it will blow cold air. When the gauge starts moving away from cold, one can then
turn the heater on and get warm air.

Most temperature gauges do not show degrees like the one pictured here. Instead they
will read cold, hot, and have a normal range as pictured in the dash panel.

Charging system gauge Voltmeter


Charging system provides the electrical current for the vehicle. The charging system
gauge or warning lamp monitors the health of the system so that one can have a
warning of a problem.

If the warning lamp does light while one is driving, it usually means the charging system
is not working at all.
There are two types of gauges used to monitor charging systems: a voltmeter which
measures system voltage and an ammeter which measures amperage going out of, or
coming into the battery.
When the engine is running, the charging system takes over so that the voltmeter will
read 14 to 14.5 volts and should stay there unless there is a heavy load on the electrical
system such as wipers, lights, heater and rear defogger all operating together. If the
Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019
Page 24
Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
voltage is constantly below 14 volts, one will have to check the system. If the voltage
ever goes above 15 volts, there is a problem with the voltage regulator.
An ammeter will read from negative amperage when the battery is providing most of the
current thereby depleting itself, to positive amperage if most of the current is coming
from the charging system.

If the battery is fully charged and there is minimal electrical demand, then the ammeter
should read close to zero, but should always be on the positive side of zero. It is normal
for the ammeter to read high positive amperage in order to recharge the battery after
starting, but it should taper off in a few minutes. If it continues to read more than 10 or
20 amps even though the lights, wipers and other electrical devices are turned off, one
may have a weak battery and should have it checked.
Brake Warning Light
This reminds you to release the parking brake before moving the vehicle. If the light
comes on while you are pressing the foot brake or while you are driving, part or all of
the braking system is not working properly.

Antilock Braking System Light (9)


This light tells if the antilock braking system (ABS) is functioning properly. If the ABS
light comes on while driving, it indicates a problem with the system.

Learning Guide for Vehicle Servicing and repairing Level II Date: September 2019

Version: 1 Revision: 0 Author:
Safety Belt Light
This light reminds to fasten safety belt before moving vehicle. In some vehicles, the light
stays on for a few seconds after the engine is started and there may also be a beeping
sound.

Air Bag Warning Light


When the air bag light comes on and then goes off, this tells you that the air bags are in
proper working condition. If the air bags are not in proper operating condition, the
warning light will stay on.

Turn-Signal Indicators
These indicators tell you the direction you have signaled to turn.
High-Beam Indicator
This indicator usually appears as a small blue light in some area of the instrument panel
when the high-beams are on.

Check Engine Light


The check engine light can either blink or remain constant, depending on the problem. A
blinking light indicates a problem that needs immediate attention. However, whenever
the check engine light comes on, you should have the vehicle checked by a service
technician.

Door opens warning light.


If a door is open, a warning light is used to notify the driver. Checkand close all doors
and tailgates before driving.
