PINPOINT TEST H: THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK/UNLOCK USING THE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER


H1-H3:

H9-H10:






Normal Operation
Remote locking and unlocking of the doors is accomplished by the remote keyless entry (RKE) module receiving a command message from the RKE transmitter. The RKE module processes the command and sends a signal directly to the door lock actuators.

All RKE transmitters must be present to begin diagnosis of the RKE system.

Aftermarket or dealer-installed systems may adversely effect the RKE system operation. These systems should be disconnected before diagnosing any RKE concerns.

Possible Causes
- RKE transmitter battery
- RKE transmitter programming
- RKE transmitter
- aftermarket systems
- high power devices
- TV/radio transmission towers
- RKE module
