GENERAL INFORMATION
All doors can be locked or unlocked electrically by
operating the switch on a front door panel or arm
rest. The rear doors can be locked or unlocked by actu-
ation of the front door switch, or can be locked or un-
locked mechanically and independently with their
respective locking knobs. The front doors can be locked or unlocked mechan-
ically with the locking knob regardless of electrical
locking and unlocking actuation with the front door
knobs. The right and left front door on all car lines can be
locked or unlocked mechanically from the outside
with the key or electrically as described above. The
left front can also be unlocked by actuation of the in-
side remote door handle. The right front door on AC,
AG, AJ and AY can be unlocked by actuation of the
inside remote door handle. The deck lid lock consists of a latch with internal
solenoid and push button switch. The solenoid is en-
ergized only when the push button is depressed.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
The power door lock inhibit system prevents the
doors from being locked using the power door locks
when either of two conditions occur: (1) The key is in the ignition switch and any of the
doors are open. The ignition switch does not have to
be ON. (2) The key is in the ignition switch and the head-
lamp are on.
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
The system allows locking and unlocking of vehicle
door(s) and Trunk lid by remote control using a hand
held radio transmitter. The ignition switch must be
OFF before the trunk lid can be unlocked with the
transmitter. The receiver may receive signals from two trans-
mitters. Each transmitter has its own code, and the
code has been stored in memory. If the transmitter is
replaced or a second transmitter is add, the code on
both units have to be placed in memory.
CIRCUIT BREAKER TEST
Find correct circuit breaker on fuse block. Pull out
slightly but be sure that circuit breaker terminals
still contact terminals in fuse block. Connect ground
wire of voltmeter to a good ground. With probe of
voltmeter positive wire, check both terminals of cir-
cuit breaker for 12 volts. If only one terminal checks
at 12 volts, circuit breaker is defective and must be
replaced. If neither terminal shows 12 volts, check
for open or shorted circuit to circuit breaker.
WIRING VOLTAGE TEST
The following wiring test sequence determines
whether or not voltage is continuous through the
body harness to switch. (1) Remove left side switch from trim panel.
(2) Carefully separate multiple terminal block on
wiring harness from switch body. (3) Connect one lead of test light to a ground ter-
minal:
² Black Wire AA and AC Bodies
² Gray wire AG and AJ Bodies
² Touch other test light lead to Red Wire terminal.
² If test light comes on, the wiring circuit between
the battery and switch is functional.
² If test light does not come on, check 30 amp circuit
breaker or for a open circuit.
SWITCH TEST
Remove the switch from its mounting location. Us-
ing an ohmmeter, refer to (Fig. 1) to determine if
continuity is correct in the Lock and Unlock switch
positions. If these results are not obtained, replace
the switch.
Ä POWER LOCKS 8P - 1

to the deck lid open position. If the pull down limit
switch is depressed at this time, the motor should
stop.(c) If these results are not obtained, replace the
pull down motor assembly.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
OPERATION
The transmitter has three buttons for operation
(Fig. 11).
² UNLOCK driver's door, enable illuminated entry,
and disarm the Theft Security System. Pushing and
releasing the button once will unlock the driver's
door. Two times within five seconds all doors will un-
lock.
² LOCK all doors, set Theft Security System and
chirp horn. Chirp of horn is a short toot to notify
that the alarm system is set and the indicator lamp
on the instrument panel will flash for about 15 sec-
onds.
² Unlock Trunk Lid
² The receiver is capable of retaining VAC even
when power is removed.
² Each receiver must have at least one and no more
than two transmitters.
CONTROL RANGE
Operation range is within 7 meters (23 ft.) of the
receiver.
TRANSMITTER BATTERY
The battery can be removed without special tools
and are readily available at local retail stores. The
recommended battery is Duracell DL 2016 or equiv-
alent. Battery life is about one to two years.
PROGRAM REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
(1) Remove trim cover or floor console as needed
that may be covering the Air Bag System Diagnostic
Module (ASDM). (2) Pull floor carpeting back between the accelera-
tor peddle and ASDM. (3) Locate program line a dark green wire with a
insulator on the end. Located between the accelerator
and (ASDM). (4) Turn ignition switch to the ON position.
(5) Connect the program line from the Remote
Keyless Entry Module to ground. The door locks will
lock and unlock to indicate the receiver is ready to
receive transmitter code. Trunk solenoid will not cy-
cle. (6) Press any button on the transmitter to set code.
If there is a second transmitter it has to be set at
this time. The locks will cycle to confirm program-
ming. (7) Disconnect the program line from ground. This
returns the system to its normal operation mode. (8) Replace trim cover or floor console as neces-
sary.
HORN CHIRP CANCELLATION
During the programming operation the horn chirp
can be disabled using the following procedures: (1) Remove trim cover or floor console as needed
that may be covering the Air Bag System Diagnostic
Module (ASDM). (2) Pull floor carpeting back between the accelera-
tor peddle and ASDM. (3) Locate program line a dark green wire with a
insulator on the end. Located between the accelerator
and (ASDM). (4) Turn ignition switch ON.
(5) Connect the program line from the Remote
Keyless Entry Module to ground. The door locks will
lock and unlock to indicate the receiver is ready to
receive transmitter code. Trunk solenoid will not cy-
cle. (6) Press any button on the transmitter to set code.
If there is a second transmitter it has to be set at
this time. The locks will cycle to confirm program-
ming. (7) Press LOCK then UNLOCK transmitter but-
tons repeat three times. (8) Door locks and rear release will cycle three
times as feedback of Horn Chirp lockout. (9) Remove ground from program line to restore
normal system operation. (10) To reinstate the Horn Chirp feature refer to
Program Remote Keyless Entry.
TESTING
CONDITION: When trying to program the receiver
module in the vehicle with a new transmitter and
there is no response from the module, Example: the
door locks do not cycle through a lock/unlock routine.
Refer to Fig. 12 for a block wiring diagram or to
Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
