Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter

SYSTEM OPERATION
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system transmitter is equipped with two buttons, labeled Lock and Unlock. It is also equipped with a key ring and is designed to serve as a key fob. The operating range of the transmitter radio signal is up to 7 meters (23 feet) from the RKE receiver.

Each transmitter has a different vehicle access code, which must be programmed into the memory of the RKE receiver in the vehicle in order to operate the RKE system. Refer to the service procedure for Body and Frame/Locks/Keyless Entry/Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter Programming for more information.
The transmitter operates on two Duracell DL2016 (or equivalent) batteries. Typical battery life is from one to two years. The transmitter cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
