Dan, it would appear that you have in fact located your BEM. As for a 'Smartlock module', I do not believe that such a beast exists. To the best of my knowledge the smartlock is a function of the ECU.

Here is a screen shot from Binary Editor, my tuning Application. Of course, mine is AUII, so I use smartshield, but you can see the switch for the smartlock in the tuning scalars as a function of the ECU.



Hope that helps you some.

auIILTD is spot on the smartlock is a part of the BEM and the ECU in combination they work together to provide the security. there is a module at the back of the ignition switch but that just sends the security signal to the BEM
