MODULE
DESCRIPTION
When an RKE lock message is sent to the instru-
ment cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
door locks, the interior lighting is turned off, the
horn chirps (if this feature is enabled), the park
lamps flash (if this feature is enabled) and, if the
vehicle is so equipped, the Vehicle Theft Security
System (VTSS) is armed. When an RKE unlock mes-
sage is sent to the instrument cluster, the instrument
cluster actuates the driver side front door (or all
doors if this feature is enabled) unlock, the interior
lighting is turned on and, if the vehicle is so
equipped, the VTSS is disarmed.
When an RKE panic message is sent to the instru-
ment cluster, the instrument cluster actuates the
driver side front door (or all doors if this feature is
enabled) unlock, the interior lighting is turned on
and, if the vehicle is so equipped, the VTSS is dis-
armed. The panic message will also cause the exte-
rior lamps (including the headlights) to flash, andthe horn to sound for about three minutes, or until a
second panic message is sent to the instrument clus-
ter. A vehicle speed of about 25.7 kilometers-per-hour
(15 miles-per-hour) will also cancel the panic event.
Refer to the owner's manual for more information
on the features, use and operation of the RKE sys-
tem.
OPERATION
Whenever the vehicle battery power is interrupted,
the Remote Keyless Module (RKE) Module will retain
all vehicle access codes in its memory. When replac-
ing or adding a key fob transmitter (maximum of 4) a
DRB IIItscan tool is required to program the RKE
Module to accept the new Vehicle Access Code if a
customer owned transmitter is not available.
If a functioning transmitter is available, (Refer to 8
- ELECTRICAL/POWER LOCKS/KEYLESS ENTRY
TRANSMITTER - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE KEYLESS

The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to
diagnose the power lock system requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool and the proper Diagnostic Proce-
dures manual.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information.

cable.
