Remote Keyless Entry

The remote keyless entry (RKE) feature is used to control the power door locks and panic feature by using a remote transmitter (keyfob) and receiver located within the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster RKE feature controls the driver door unlock, all doors lock/unlock, horn chirp enabled/ disable, optical chirp enabled/disable, illuminated entry, the panic feature, initiate customer programming, and arming/disarming the Vehicle Theft Security System.

When a valid lock message is received from the receiver, the instrument cluster will:
- Arm the Vehicle Theft Security System (if equipped and all conditions are met).
- Turn off the illuminated entry feature.
- Activate the door lock motors.
- Transmit a PCI bus message to the FCM to perform horn chirp.

When a valid unlock code is received from the receiver, the instrument cluster will:
- Disarm the Vehicle Theft Security System (if equipped and previously set).
- Activate the illuminated entry and cargo lamp.
- Activate the driver door unlock motor (if customer programmed for driver door only unlock).
- Transmit a PCI bus message to the FCM for optical chirp.
