GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
The key fob transmitter has three buttons to actu-
ate and program the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
system (Fig. 1).
²UNLOCK: Actuating the UNLOCK button once
will unlock the driver door and activate the illumi-
nated entry system. Actuating the UNLOCK button
twice within five seconds will unlock all doors.
²LOCK: Actuating the LOCK button locks all
doors and sounds horn (chirp). The chirp verifies the
door lock operation.
²PANIC: Actuating the PANIC button sounds the
horns and alternately flashes the headlamps and
parking lamps. The panic alarm will remain on for
one minute, until the PANIC button is actuated
again or the ignition is switched to the RUN position.
²The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code (VAC)
in memory even after vehicle power has been inter-
rupted.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
VEHICLE ACCESS CODE (VAC) PROGRAMMING
The system allows locking and unlocking of vehicle
door(s) by remote control using a hand held radio fre-
quency transmitter. The ignition switch must be OFF
before the panic function can be activated with the
transmitter.
The receiver may receive VAC signals from two
transmitters. Each transmitter has its own VehicleAccess Code and the code is programmed and stored
into receiver memory. If the transmitter is replaced
or a second transmitter is added, the codes of both
units have to be reprogrammed into the receiver
memory. If a receiver module is replaced, both the
transmitter codes must be stored in the new receiver
memory.
OPERATION
The transmitter has three buttons for operation
(Fig. 1). They are LOCK, UNLOCK and PANIC.
The receiver is capable of retaining all Vehicle
Access Codes (VAC) even when power is removed.
Each remote keyless entry module (RKE) must
have at least one and no more than two transmitters.
