To test and service remote entry system:
^ Check that battery is fully charged (if not, it may be causing the concern).

NOTE: When the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the powertrain control module relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven 16 km (10 miles) or more to relearn the strategy.

^ Disconnect and reconnect battery to make sure system is reset.
^ Service only as specified in the tests.
