Keyless Entry System Operation

The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) feature operates the following from the outside the vehicle:
^ The door locks.
^ The fuel filler door.
^ The interior lighting.
^ The trunk release.

The RKE system consists of the following components:
^ Receiver
^ Two transmitter key FOBs

The two transmitter key FOBs each consists of four buttons which control the following operations:
^ Control door lock.
^ Control door unlock.
^ Control the fuel filler door unlock.
^ Control the trunk release.

The transmitter unit sends a radio signal to the receiver in response to buttons pressed by the operator. The RKE receiver operates as a passive unit. The RKE receiver receives the incoming transmitter signals; the RKE then transfers the signals to the Body Control Module (BCM) via the Class II serial data link (SDL) without actively controlling any operation. The BCM operates all the necessary operations.
