Intrusion Sensor Repeatedly Triggers VTSS (Export Only)

NOTE: Ensure there are no hanging objects or loose seat belts causing the false triggering. Also, ensure there is no dust or debris around the intrusion sensor causing the false triggering.

Disconnect the intrusion sensor connector. See Fig 1. Close all the doors and arm the VTSS. If the alarm inadvertently triggers due to intrusion sense even though the sensor is disconnected, replace the remote keyless entry module, then see BODY VERIFICATION TEST  under VERIFICATION TESTS. If the alarm did not inadvertently trigger due to intrusion sense even though the sensor is disconnected, replace the intrusion sensor, then see VTSS VERIFICATION TEST  under VERIFICATION TESTS.
