Keyless Access - Control/Function (2013 2014 2015)

Smart Entry Function 

The keyless access control unit detects the input signal of the door outer handle touch sensor or the door lock switch, and authenticates 2-way communication with the remote. Then the keyless access control unit sends a door lock signal, door unlock signal, and an answer back buzzer signal to the MICU via B-CAN line.

Keyless Entry Function 

The RF unit receives the keyless transmitter signal from the remote then sends a RF signal to the keyless access control unit. The keyless access control unit authenticates the RF signal, and sends a door lock/unlock signal and trunk lid unlock signal to the MICU via the B-CAN.

Backup Communication Function 

The keyless access system has a backup communication feature: If the keyless battery goes dead, touch the remote to the engine start/stop switch on the dashboard. The remote transponder then receives an immobilizer code from the engine start/atop switch, allowing you to start the vehicle.

If close the trunk lid when remain the remote in the cargo area, the trunk lid lock will not lock.
