      Replace the vehicle key.

    • If the vehicle key is correct 
  2. Ignition OFF, disconnect the keyless entry antenna coax cable from the K77 Remote Control Door Lock Receiver and from the T23 Radio Antenna Amplifier.

    1. Replace the vehicle key.
    2. Operate the new transmitter while observing the scan tool Key Fob Function parameter for the transmitter.
    3. Verify the scan tool Key Fob Function parameter corresponds with the function selected on the transmitter.
      • If the Key Fob Function parameter does not correspond with the transmitter selection, replace the K77 Remote Control Door Lock Receiver
      • If the Key Fob Function parameter corresponds with the transmitter selection
