8M - 14 MESSAGE SYSTEMS
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER (Continued)
The EVIC module displays messages and a small
house-shaped icon with one, two or three dots corre-
sponding to the three transmitter buttons to indicate
the status of the universal transmitter. The EVIC
messages are:
• Cleared Channels - Indicates that all of the
transmitter codes stored in the universal transmitter
have been successfully cleared.
• Training - Indicates that the universal trans-
mitter is in its transmitter learning mode.
• Trained - Indicates that the universal transmit-
ter has successfully acquired a new transmitter code.
• Transmit - Indicates that a trained universal
transmitter button has been depressed and that the
universal transmitter is transmitting.
The universal transmitter cannot be repaired, and
is available for service only as a unit with the EVIC
module. This unit includes the push button switches
and the plastic module. If any of these components is
faulty or damaged, the complete EVIC module must
be replaced.

OPERATION

The universal transmitter operates on a non-
switched source of battery current so the unit will
remain functional, regardless of the ignition switch
position. For more information on the features, pro-
gramming procedures and operation of the universal
transmitter, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - UNIVERSAL
TRANSMITTER
If the Universal Transmitter is inoperative, but the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) is oper-
ating normally, see the owner's manual in the vehicle
glove box for instructions on training the Transmit-
ter. Retrain the Transmitter with a known good
transmitter as instructed in the owner's manual and
test the Transmitter operation again. If the unit is
still inoperative, test the universal transmitter with
Radio Frequency Detector special tool (Fig. 9). If both
the Transmitter and the EVIC module are inopera-
tive, refer to Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter Diagnosis and Testing in this group for further
diagnosis. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to
Wiring Diagrams. as described below:
(1) Turn the Radio Frequency (RF) Detector ON. A
"chirp" will sound and the green power LED will
light. If the green LED does not light, replace the
battery.
(2) Hold the RF detector within one inch of the
TRAINED universal transmitter and press any of the
transmitters buttons.
(3) The red signal detection LEDs will light and
the tool will beep if a radio signal is detected. Repeat
this test three times.

STANDARD PROCEDURE

STANDARD PROCEDURE - ERASING

UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER CODES

To erase the universal transmitter codes, simply
hold down the two outside buttons until the red LED
begins to flash.
NOTE: Individual channels cannot be erased. Eras-
ing the transmitter codes will erase ALL pro-
grammed codes.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - SETTING
UNIVERSAL TRANSMITTER CODES
(1) Turn off the engine.
(2) Erase the factory test codes by pressing the
two outside buttons. Release the buttons when the
red light begins to flash (about 20 seconds).
(3) Choose one of the three buttons to train. Place
the hand-held transmitter within one inch of the uni-
versal transmitter and push the buttons on both
transmitters. The red light on the universal trans-
mitter will begin to flash slowly.
