Keyless Entry System Description and Operation: Notes

The keyless entry system is a supplementary vehicle entry device. Radio frequency interference or discharged batteries may disable the system.

Keyless entry allows you to operate the following components:

• The door locks
• The rear compartment lid release (Press and hold rear release button for greater than 1.5 seconds to activate).
• The illuminated entry lamps
• The panic alarm (instant alarm)

The keyless entry system has the following main components:

• The transmitters
• The body control module (BCM)
• The remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR). When you press a button on the transmitter, the transmitter sends a signal to the RCDLR. The RCDLR receives the signal and sends a class-2 serial data message requesting the appropriate function from the BCM.
