PINPOINT TEST L: THE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE) TRANSMITTER HAS POOR RANGE PERFORMANCE

Normal Operation
The RKE integrated keyhead transmitter (IKT) sends a radio signal to the SJB based on the user selected IKT button. The SJB then carries out the selected action. The RKE transmitter has a maximum operating range of 10 m (33 ft).

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- IKT
- IKT battery
- Aftermarket systems
- High power devices
- TV/radio transmission towers
