Transmitter Test

NOTE:

• If the doors unlock or lock with the transmitter, but

the LED on the transmitter does not come on, the

LED is faulty; replace the transmitter.

• If any door is open, you cannot lock the door with the

transmitter.

• If you unlocked the doors with the transmitter, but do

not open any of the doors within 30 seconds, the

doors relock automatically.

• The doors do not lock or unlock with the transmitter

if the ignition key is inserted in the ignition switch.

1. Press the lock or unlock button five or six times to

reset the transmitter.

• If the locks work, the transmitter is OK.

• If the locks don't work, go to step 2.

2. Open the transmitter and recheck for water damage.

ter.

• If there is no water damage, go to step 3.

3. Replace the transmitter battery with a new one, and

try to lock and unlock the doors with the transmitter

by pressing the lock or unlock button five or six

times.

• If the doors lock and unlock, the transmitter is OK.

• If the doors don't lock and unlock, go to step 4.

4. Reprogram and register the transmitter, then try to

lock and unlock the doors.

• If the doors lock and unlock, the transmitter is OK.

• If the doors don't lock and unlock, replace the trans-

mitter

Function Selection and Operation Check

This check will quickly and automatically select and operate all functions of the climate control system, in the combina-

tions and sequence shown below. It may help clarify a problem, or identify one that didn't show up when you perform

the self-diagnosis circuit check.

Turn the FAN switch to AUTO, then push in both the MODE and AUTO buttons and hold them in while you start the

engine. The control unit will then automatically run the check in eight steps, one step every five seconds.

To stop at one of those steps, push the MODE button; to continue, push it again for each step after that.

Pushing the OFF button or turning the ignition OFF, will turn off the check.

Check the temperature, volume, and source of the air flow, and compare it to what the chart shows it should be.ProCarManuals.com
