OPERATION - DOOR AJAR SWITCH
The front door ajar switches close a path to ground
for the DDM or the PDM when a front door is
opened, and opens the ground path when a front door
is closed. The rear door ajar switches close a path to
ground for the BCM when a rear door is opened, and
opens the ground path when a rear door is closed.
The DDM, PDM, or BCM read the switch status then
send the proper switch status messages to other
modules over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. The door ajar
switch status message is used by the BCM as an
input for Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) oper-
ation.
OPERATION - FLIP UP GLASS AJAR SWITCH
The liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch can close a
path to ground for the BCM and the rear wiper
motor module when the liftgate flip-up glass is
opened, and opens the ground path when the liftgate
flip-up glass is closed. The rear wiper motor module
uses the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch input to
control the rear wiper operation, and will park the
rear wiper blade if this input indicates that the lift-
gate flip-up glass is ajar. The BCM reads the switch
status then sends the proper switch status message
to other modules over the Programmable Communi-cations Interface (PCI) data bus network. The liftgate
flip-up glass ajar switch status message is used by
the BCM as an input for Vehicle Theft Security Sys-
tem (VTSS) operation.
OPERATION - LIFTGATE AJAR SWITCH
Each of the liftgate ajar switches can close a path
to ground for the BCM when the liftgate is opened,
and opens the ground path when the liftgate is
closed. The BCM reads the switch status then sends

DESCRIPTION - REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM
A Radio Frequency (RF) type Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The RKE system allows
the use of a remote battery-powered radio transmit-
ter to control the power lock system. The RKE
receiver operates on non-switched battery current
through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC), so that the system remains operational,
regardless of the ignition switch position.
In addition to Lock and Unlock buttons, the RKE
transmitters are also equipped with a Panic button.
If the Panic button on the RKE transmitter is
depressed, the horn will sound and the exterior lights
will flash on the vehicle for about three minutes, or
until the Panic button is depressed a second time, if
ignition is in the Off position. A vehicle speed of
about 24 kilometers-per-hour (15 miles-per-hour) will
also cancel the panic event.
The RKE system can also perform other functions
on this vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with the
optional Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS), the
RKE transmitter will arm the VTSS when the Lock
button is depressed, and disarm the VTSS when the
Unlock button is depressed. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY - DESCRIPTION
- VEHICLE THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM). If the
vehicle is equipped with the optional Memory Sys-
tem, each of the two numbered and color-coded RKE
transmitters can be used to recall the stored driver
side front seat position, both outside power rear view
mirror positions, and the radio station presets for the
two assigned drivers. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
POWER SEATS - DESCRIPTION - MEMORY SYS-
TEM).

POWER LOCKS (Continued)

The RKE system includes two transmitters when
the vehicle is shipped from the factory, but the sys-
tem can retain the vehicle access codes of up to four
transmitters. The transmitter codes are retained in
the RKE receiver memory, even if the battery is dis-
connected. If an RKE transmitter is faulty or lost,
new transmitter vehicle access codes can be pro-
grammed into the system using a DRBIIItscan tool
and the appropriate diagnostic information.
This vehicle also offers several customer program-
mable features, which allows the selection of several

EXPORT
DESCRIPTION
Some vehicles are equipped with Power Fold-Away
Side View Mirrors. This feature allows both the
driver and passenger side view mirrors to fold
inward (retract) on demand. This feature is con-
trolled by an additional switch located on the power
mirror switch.
The fold-away side view mirror is attached to the
vehicle's door in the same manner as mirrors without
the fold-away option. The fold-away mirrors unique
option is the internal motor which allows the mirrors
to fold inward on demand. the fold-away mirror
motor is not serviceable separately, and if a motor is
found to be faulty the entire side view mirror must
be replaced.
OPERATION
When the mirror retract switch is depressed, both
of the side view mirrors will fold inward, thus mak-
ing the overall width of the vehicle the smallest pos-
sible. This can be very helpful where parking space is
an absolute minimum.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER
FOLD-AWAY MIRROR - EXPORT
The most reliable, efficient and accurate means to
diagnose the power mirror system requires the use of
a DRB scan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual. The DRB scan tool can provide confir-
mation that the PCI data bus is functional, that all
of the electronic modules are sending and receiving
the proper messages on the PCI data bus, that the
power mirror motors are being sent the proper hard
wired outputs, and that the mirror position potenti-
ometers are returning the proper outputs to the door
modules for them to perform their power mirror sys-
tem functions.
REMOVAL
The fold-away mirror motor is not serviceable sep-
arately, and if a motor is found to be faulty the entire
side view mirror must be replaced. (Refer to 8 -
