NOTE: All RKE transmitters must be present to begin diagnosis of the RKE system.

Normal Operation
Remote locking and unlocking of the doors is accomplished by the driver door module (DDM) receiving a command message from the RKE transmitter. The DDM processes the command and sends a signal directly to the door lock actuators.

Aftermarket or dealer-installed systems may adversely affect the RKE system operation. These systems should be disconnected before diagnosing any RKE concerns.

DTC B2276 - sets when only one transmitter has been programmed for the vehicle.

Possible Causes
- RKE transmitter battery
- RKE transmitter programming
- RKE transmitter
- DDM
