- Verify that the transmitter being used is a correct transmitter for the vehicle.
- If not the correct transmitter, replace the transmitter.
- Place the transmitter on the test pad of the J 43241 and press each button of the transmitter one at a time. The tester should sound a tone and illuminate a green light when each button is pressed.
- If any of the buttons do not sound the tone and illuminate the green light, replace the transmitter battery. Retest with the J 43241. If the transmitter continues to malfunction, replace the affected transmitter.
- Verify the scan tool Fob Programmed parameter for the transmitter being used is Yes.
- If not the specified value, program the applicable transmitter.
- Press each transmitter button. Verify the scan tool Fob Function parameter for the transmitter being used responds to each button press.
- If the parameter does not respond, test the keyless entry antenna for an open/high resistance. If all circuits test normal, replace the RCDLR.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the RCDLR.
