Vehicle Personalization

When a keyless entry transmitter is used to unlock the vehicle's doors, the remote function actuator (RFA) module communicates the following information to the memory seat/mirror module:
^ the unlock command
^ which driver performed the command

This communication is performed via CKT 1985, PPL. Refer to Keyless Entry Schematics.

Each keyless entry transmitter is programmed with one of the 4 personalized recall options when the RFA receives an unlock message:
^ Mode 0: The memory seat/mirror module sounds a single chime and the LH seat will not move.
^ Mode 1: The memory seat/mirror module sounds a single chime and the LH seat and both mirrors will move to the position stored for DRIVER-1.
^ Mode 2: The memory seat/mirror module sounds a single chime and the LH seat and both mirrors will move to the position stored for DRIVER-2.
^ Mode 3: The memory seat/mirror module sounds a single chime and the LH seat will move to the easy exit position which is fully back and down.

Program a keyless entry transmitter for a specific mode as follows:
^ Mode 0: Press the SET MEMORY button on the LH seat switch and then within 5 seconds press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
^ Mode 1: Perform a memory set function for DRIVER-1 and then, within 5 seconds, press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
^ Mode 2: Perform a memory set function for DRIVER-2 and then, within 5 seconds, press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
^ Mode 3: There are 2 different ways to set the keyless entry transmitter to this mode:
- Perform an easy exit function and then, within 5 seconds, press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter.
- Press the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry transmitter and then, within 5 seconds, perform an easy exit function.
