So if an attempted theft is detected, an alarm is triggered in the car. Normally, its activation is indicated by flashing indicators and a wailing siren. the operation of the alarm system is simple: when one of the sensors "reports" a security breach to the processor, the alarm is triggered and the device will block the ignition or the starter of the car through an internal or external relay.
