GENERAL INFORMATION
HEADLAMP MODULE
Minor amounts of fogging may occur around the
edges of the headlamp lens when exposed to humid
conditions. This is considered normal. The fogging
will dissipate with increased ambient temperature or
headlamp usage.
HEADLAMP SWITCH
Service procedures for the headlamp switch can be
found in Group 8E, Instrument Panel and Gauges.
More information can be found in Group 8W, Wiring
Diagrams.
HEADLAMP DIMMER SWITCH
The headlamp dimmer switch is incorporated into
the multi-function (turn signal) switch. Proper proce-
dures can be found in Group 8J, Turn Signal and
Flashers. More information can be found in Group
8W, Wiring Diagrams.

HEADLAMP LEVELING MOTOR
This vehicle is equipped with a remote headlamp
leveling system. This system allows the driver to
adjust the vertical headlamp aim from the interior of
the vehicle to compensate for passenger or cargo
load. A headlamp leveling switch is located in the
instrument panel and controls the headlamp leveling
motor found on the back of the headlamp module.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
When a vehicle experiences problems with the head-
lamp system, verify the condition of the battery connec-
tions, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wire
connectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch and head-
lamp switch. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams, for
component locations and circuit information.

CLEANING AND INSPECTION
HEADLAMP CLEANING
This vehicle is equipped with plastic headlights
that are lighter and less susceptible to stone break-
age than glass headlights.
This plastic is not as scratch resistant as glass and
therefore a different lens cleaning procedures must
be followed.
To minimize the possibility of scratching the lenses
and reducing light output, avoid wiping with a dry
cloth. To remove road dirt, wash with a mild soap
solution followed by rinsing with water.
Do not use abrasive cleaning components, solvents,
steel wool or other aggressive material to clean the
lenses.

The horn chirp can be DISABLED or ENABLED
using the following procedure.
To DISABLE (cancelling) the horn chirp feature,
press and hold the transmitter LOCK button for a
minimum four seconds. While pressing LOCK button
in, press the UNLOCK button. The horn chirp fea-
ture will not function until the above procedure is
repeated. To ENABLE (reinstate) the horn chirp fea-
ture, use any one of the four key fob transmitters
and reverse the above procedures. It will ENABLE
the horn chirp feature for all transmitters.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
RKE MODULE
REMOVAL
(1) Remove instrument panel top cover. Refer to
Group 8E, Instrument Panel and Gauges for proper
procedures.
(2) Remove screws holding RKE module to instru-
ment panel.
(3) Disconnect wire connector from RKE module
(Fig. 2).
(4) Remove the RKE module.
INSTALLATION
For installation, reverse the above procedures.
ADJUSTMENTS
PROGRAMMING RKE MODULE
(1) Using a functional key fob transmitter, unlock
the vehicle and disarm the Vehicle Theft Security
System.
(2) Insert ignition key into the ignition switch.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to RUN position with-
out starting engine.
(4) Using a functional key fob transmitter, press
and hold the UNLOCK button for a minimum four
seconds (maximum ten seconds).
(5) While holding UNLOCK button, and before ten
seconds passes, press and release the PANIC button.
A single chime will sound to verify that the RKE
module is set to receive the new Vehicle Access
Code(s).
(6) Within 30 seconds of the chime, press any but-
ton on each new key fob transmitter. After 30 sec-
onds or when ignition switch is turned OFF, the RKE
module will end the programming mode. A single
chime will sound to verify that the RKE module will
no longer receive additional Vehicle Access Code(s).
(7) When Vehicle Access Code(s) programming is
complete, turn Ignition Switch to the OFF position
and verify RKE system operation using each key fob.
NOTE: Only the primary (first two) key fob transmit-
ters will operate the memory seat and mirror sys-
tems. If a primary key fob is being replaced, the
memory seat and mirror module will require pro-
gramming. Refer to Group 8R, Power Seats for
proper (data link) programming procedure.
SPECIFICATIONS
RKE TRANSMITTER BATTERY
The batteries can be removed without special tools
and are readily available at local retail stores. The
recommended battery is Duracell DL 2016 or equiva-
lent. Battery life is about one to two years.
CAUTION: Do not touch the battery terminals or
handle the batteries any more than necessary.
Hands must be clean and dry.
RKE TRANSMITTER RANGE
Normal operation range is up to about a distance
of 7 meters (23 ft.) of the vehicle. Range may be bet-
ter or worse depending on the environment around
the vehicle. Closeness to a radio frequency transmit-
ter such as a radio station tower may degrade oper-
ational range, while range in an open field will be
enhanced.
