On my 98 R/T the only time the "SECURITY" light comes on is when the thing
actually goes off , which is only when I set it off with the panic button ,
or I suppose if someone tried to jimmy the door open . I never got mine to
"chirp" when arming/dis-arming , and I never see the security light blink
while it is armed , I wish it would and I wish I got me a "chirp" ! Dangit !
