KEYLESS ENTRY
TRANSMITTER
DESCRIPTION
The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system Radio
Frequency (RF) transmitter (Fig. 2) is equipped with
four buttons, labeled LOCK, UNLOCK, DECK LID
RELEASE, and PANIC. 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 10 meters (30 feet) from the RKE receiver.
Each RKE 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. Two transmitters are
provided with the vehicle, but the RKE receiver can
retain the access codes of up to four transmitters in
its memory.
The RKE transmitter operates on two Panasonic
CR2016 (or equivalent) batteries (Fig. 2). Typical bat-
tery life is from one to two years. The RKE transmit-
ter cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The transmitter has four buttons for operation.
They are LOCK, UNLOCK, DECK LID RELEASE,
and PANIC.
• The UNLOCK button will unlock the driver’s
door and enable illuminated entry. Pushing and
releasing the button once will unlock the driver’s
door. Pushing and releasing the button two times,
within a five second interval, will unlock all doors.
• Upon pressing the LOCK button, the horn will
sound a short CHIRP (if enabled) and flash the park
lamps to notify that the all door lock signal was
received and set. Illuminated entry is cancelled and
the interior lamps are faded to off.
• Pushing and releasing the DECK LID
RELEASE button (one or two times depending on
customer preference) within a two second interval,
will slightly ajar the deck lid.
• Pushing and holding the PANIC button will
cause the panic alarm to sound for three minutes,
until the panic button is pressed and held a second
time, or the vehicle reaches a speed of 15 mph.
The receiver is capable of retaining a Vehicle
Access Code (VAC) even when power is removed.
Each Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) module must
have at least one and no more than four transmit-
ters.
