Keyless Entry System Description and Operation: Unlocking

When operating the Unlock button on the remote coded key, an RF signal is transmitted. If the Unlock button is operated for 0.25 second within approximately 4 meters of the driver's side B-pillar, the BCM receives an unlock request. This is received from the remote coded key via the remote receiver, located in the instrument panel between the defog ducts. The BCM then:

• Unlocks both the doors (single-stage unlock) or just the driver's door (two-stage unlock)
• Disarms the theft and entry deterrent systems
• Turns on the dome lamp
• Flashes the indicators twice
