GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
The Remote Keyless Entry System (RKE) allows
locking/unlocking of vehicle door(s) by remote control
using a hand held radio frequency (RF) key fob
transmitter.
The Body Control Module (BCM) may receive sig-
nals from up to four key fob transmitters. Each key
fob transmitter has its own ID with a rolling code.
The code is programmed and stored into BCM mem-
ory. The ID code of the key fob transmitter never
changes. However the rolling code portion changes
every time a button is pressed. If the key fob trans-
mitter is replaced or an additional transmitter is
added, the codes of all units may have to be repro-
grammed into the BCM memory. If a BCM is
replaced, the key fob transmitter codes must be pro-
grammed in the new BCM memory. If a programmed
key fob transmitter button is pressed more than 250
times outside of the vehicle range, the rolling code
will go out of synchronization. In this case the rolling
code has to be synchronized again for complete oper-
ation. Refer to Synchronization of Rolling Code.

OPERATION
The key fob transmitter has three buttons for oper-
ation (Fig. 1). They are LOCK, UNLOCK, and
TRUNK.
Depressing the button:
• UNLOCK button will unlock the driver's door
and enable illuminated entry, if equipped. Pushing
and releasing the button once will unlock the driver's
door. Pushing and releasing the button two times,
within five seconds interval, will unlock all doors.
• LOCK button, the horn will sound a short
CHIRP to notify that the all door lock signal was
received and set. The illuminated entry operation
will be cancelled and all interior lamps will immedi-
ately turn OFF.
• DECK LID button will release the deck lid when
the button is pressed twice within two seconds.
The BCM is capable of retaining Vehicle Access
Code (VAC) even when power is removed.
