Remote Keyless Entry

Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system consists of Body Control Module (BCM) and 2 transmitters. BCM can be programmed with up to 4 transmitters. Transmitter sends a signal to BCM when LOCK, UNLOCK, DECKLID/LIFTGATE (vehicle symbol) or PANIC (horn symbol) button is depressed. BCM interprets signal, decodes it, and activates required circuitry to provide requested function. RKE module range is up to 32 feet (10 meters).

When UNLOCK button on RKE transmitter is depressed once, BCM unlocks driver's door and dome light will illuminate for 20 seconds or until ignition switch is turned to RUN position (with dome light in DOOR position). Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) will flash twice. If UNLOCK button is depressed again within 5 seconds of first time, remaining doors will unlock and DRL will flash twice. Security system is disabled when UNLOCK button is depressed. This is confirmed by 2 horn chirps if chirp mode is enabled.

When LOCK button is depressed on RKE transmitter, all doors will lock, DRL will flash once if security system is enabled and dome light will remain illuminated for 2 seconds after doors are closed. Security system will arm, depending on selected mode. If a door or decklid is open while UNLOCK or LOCK buttons are depressed on RKE transmitter, BCM will chime 3 times.

When DECKLID/LIFTGATE RELEASE button on RKE transmitter is depressed, decklid or liftgate will unlock when ignition is off and or vehicle is stationary. Dome light will illuminate for 20 seconds, or until ignition switch is turned to RUN position. DRL will flash twice and security system will disarm until truck or liftgate is opened, and then closed.

When UNLOCK button on RKE transmitter is quickly depressed twice, fuel door will unlock. If LOCK button is depressed on RKE transmitter, fuel door will lock. Fuel door lock and unlock functions follow passenger doors lock and unlock functions.

When Red PANIC button on RKE transmitter is depressed, horn will sound and DRL lights will flash for 2 minutes, or until PANIC button is depressed again, whichever occurs first.
