1994 CHEVROLET CORVETTE keyless entry

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE:
Your Corvette has a number of new
features that can help prevent theft.
But you can have a lot
of trouble
getting into your vehicle
if you ever
lock your keys inside. You may even
have to damage your vehicle to get
in. So be sure you have extra keys.
Door Locks
There are several ways to lock and unlock
your vehicle:
From the outside, use your door key or
the passive keyless entry transmitter.
If your theft deterrent system
is armed,
unlock the doors only with the key or the
transmitter to avoid setting off the alarm.
Refer to “Universal Theft Deterrent” in
the Index.
To lock the door from the inside, move
the lock control
on the door back. To
unlock
it, move the lock control on the
door forward.

Power Door Locks
Push the power door lock switch on either
door back to lock or unlock both doors at
once.
Leaving Your Vehicle
If you are leaving the vehicle, take your
keys, open your door and set the locks
from inside. Then get out and close the
door.
Your vehicle has a theft deterrent system.
See “Universal Theft Deterrent” in the
Index.
Passive Keyless Entry System
With Passive Keyless Entry (PJSE), your
vehicle will disarm or
arm your theft
deterrent system and lock or unlock your
doors when you are about three to seven
feet (one to two meters) away, if you are
carrying the PKE transmitter. Your
Corvette was shipped with one
PKE
transmitter, but up to three can be
matched to your vehicle. See “Matching
Transmitters to Your Vehicle” later in this
section.
Your Passive Keyless Entry system
operates on a radio frequency subject to
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Rules. This
device complies with
Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Should interference to this system occur,
try this:
Check to determine if battery
replacement is necessary. See the
instructions on battery replacement.

system and unlock the doors. If it’s dark
enough outside, your interior lights will
come on.
If you move out of range, the PKE system
will:
1. Lock the doors after five seconds.
2. Arm the theft deterrent system.
3. Sound the horn to let you know the
4. Turn off the interior lights.
You can also use the buttons on the
transmitter. Press
“DOOR’ to open the
passenger’s door or “HATCH’ to open
the hatch. The “HATCH’ button will only
work when the ignition is
off.
The system has a feature that makes it
difficult for you to lock your keys in your
vehicle. If you leave your keys in the
ignition and lock the doors,
the system
will unlock the doors as soon as they are
closed. If you leave
the keys in the
ignition and move away with the
transmitter, the doors still
will not lock.
You should notice that the horn doesn’t
sound and return to get your keys.
doors
are locked.
[f you shake the transmitter, you may hear
1 slight rattle. This sound is from the
notion sensor inside
the transmitter. It
joes not indicate that anything is wrong
with your transmitter.
The system will allow you to lock your
keys in
the vehicle if you didn’t leave
them in the ignition.
You should,
however, be able to use
the transmitter to
get them out. After
26 seconds of no
motion, the transmitter shuts down to save
the battery. Wait about
30 seconds, then
rock the vehicle. The transmitter should
”wake
up” and unlock the doors.
This system can’t guarantee that you’ll
never be locked out of your vehicle. If
the battery is low or if
the transmitter is
in a place where the signal can’t get to
the antenna, it won’t unlock the doors.
Always remember to take your keys
with you.
PKE Settings
You can use the system for both doors or
just the driver’s door, or you can
turn the
system
off.
To change door settings:
1. Put the ignition key in the ignition,
but don’t
turn it on.
2. Press “DOOR” on the transmitter
until the door locks cycle (about two
seconds).
To turn the system off:

seconds).
To turn the system back on, just repeat the
steps.
To check that the system is off, turn on
the ignition. The “PASSIVE KEYLESS
ENTRY” light on the Driver Information
Center should not come on. If the light
does come on for a second or two, then
the PKE system is still on.
You can also check whether the system is
on or
off by closing the door and walking
away with the keys and transmitter.
If the
doors lock, the system is on.
If you are working around your vehicle
and keeping your keys with you, you
might want to turn the PKE system
off.
If you don’t, the transmitter will keep
locking and unlocking your doors.

Transmitter Range
The transmitter range depends on your
vehicle and where you are standing. The
coupe
(A) has an antenna in the driver’s
door and one in the rear area. The
convertible
(B) has one antenna in each
door. The antennas do not require any
maintenance.
Range also depends on how you hold
the transmitter. For best performance,
when you come near your vehicle, hold
the transmitter straight up and down,
so
the keys hang down.
If the range seems to be decreasing,
check the battery
in the transmitter.
Range will decrease if the battery is
low. It will also decrease if more than
one transmitter is in the area. Don’t put
the transmitter in a metal container
because the transmitter won’t work.
Matching Transmitter(s) to Your
Vehicle
Each key chain transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from
unlocking your vehicle. If a transmitter
is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
?urchased through your dealer.
Remember to bring any remaining
:ransmitters with you when you go to your dealer. When the dealer matches
the replacement transmitter
to your
vehicle, the remaining transmitters must
also be matched. Once the new
transmitter is coded, the lost transmitter
will not unlock your vehicle.
You can match a transmitter to as many
different vehicles as you own, provided
they are equipped with exactly the same
model -system. (General Motors offers
several different models of these
systems on their vehicles.) Each vehicle
can have only three transmitters
matched to it.
To match transmitters to your
vehicle:
1. Move all transmitters out of range.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. Push “TRIP ODO’ on the Driver
Information Center twice.
4. Within five seconds press and hold
“FUEL INFO’ until the “PASSIVE
KEYLESS ENTRY” light comes on.
5. Turn the ignition off, but leave the
key in the ignition. The “PASSIVE
KEYLESS ENTRY” light should
begin to flash to show the system is
in programming mode.

If you have a coupe, this switch is on the
rear of the driver’s door. It works with the
door open and the transmission in any
gear. Push it down to release the hatch.
The PKE transmitter will also release the
hatch. See “Passive Keyless Entry
System” in the Index.

If you don’t have battery power, use the
manual release cable
to open the-hatch.
The cable is near the security shade

Deterrent
‘our Corvette has a theft deterrent
larm system. With this system, the
SECURITY” light will flash as you
pen the door (if your ignition is
off).
‘his light reminds you to arm the theft
eterrent system. Here’s how to do it:
. Open the door.
. Lock the door with the power door
lock switch or the Passive Keyless
Entry system. The “SECURITY” lieht
will come on.
. Close all the doors. The “SECURITY’
light should go
off.
... 44
Now, if a door or the hatch is opened
without the key or Passive Keyless Entry
system, the alarm will go
off. Your horn
will sound for three minutes, then it will
go
off to save battery power.
The theft deterrent system won’t
arm if
you lock the doors with a key or manual
door lock, or if you lock the vehicle after
the doors are closed.
If your passenger stays in the vehicle
when you leave with the keys, have the
passenger lock the vehicle after the doors
are closed. This way the alarm won’t
arm,
and your passenger won’t set it off.
Always use your key or the Passive
Keyless Entry system to unlock a door.
Unlocking a door any other way will set
off the alarm.
If you do set off the alarm
accidentally, there are three ways to stop
it:
Unlock any door with your key.
Put the ignition key in the ignition.
Use the Passive Keyless Entry system.
How to Test the Alarm
1. Make sure the rear hatch is latched.
2. Lower a window.
3. Arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait five seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and
unlock the door from inside. The
alarm should sound.
6. Turn off the alarm.
If the alarm doesn’t go
off, check to see
if the horn works. If not, check the horn
fuse. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in
the Index. If the horn does work, but the
alarm doesn’t go
off, see your dealer.

Service Ride Control Light
This light should come on for a few
seconds when you start your vehicle. If
the light stays on or comes on while
you’re driving, there may be a problem
with your Selective Ride Control system.
You can still drive, but you should see
your dealer soon.
The Selective Ride Control system is
designed to sense vehicle speed in the
first minute after the vehicle is started.
If the vehicle is not moved
in that first
minute, the system records a fault. The
“SERVICE RIDE CONTROL” light
comes on after three faults are recorded.
If the light comes on for this reason, movc
your Corvette and the light should go out.
