Test D: Doors Do Not Lock/Unlock Using RKE Transmitter

  1. Press RKE transmitter PANIC button. If panic feature does not operate go to step  3 . If panic feature operates, try a second RKE transmitter programmed to vehicle. If RKE system operates properly, replace first RKE transmitter. Program both RKE transmitters. See PROGRAMMING  . If second RKE transmitter programmed to vehicle operates panic feature but does not lock/unlock vehicle, replace RKE module and retest system operation. If a second RKE transmitter is not available, go to next step.
  2. Program another RKE transmitter to vehicle. See PROGRAMMING  . Check RKE system operation using programmed RKE transmitter. If door locks operate correctly, replace RKE transmitter in question. Program NEW RKE transmitter. See PROGRAMMING  . Retest system operation. If RKE transmitter will not program, to step  4 .
  3. Program inoperative RKE transmitter. See PROGRAMMING  . If RKE transmitter programmed and operates RKE system correctly, system is okay at this time. If RKE transmitter did not program or operate RKE system correctly, go to step  2 .
  4. Measure resistance between ground and RKE Data Link Connector (DLC) Black wire terminal. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is not less than 5 ohms, repair open in Black wire between RKE DLC and ground.
  5. Turn ignition off. Disconnect RKE module 13-pin Black connector C335. Connect a jumper wire between RKE DLC connector Black wire terminal and White/Yellow wire terminal. Measure resistance between ground and RKE module C335 terminal No. 10 (White/Yellow wire). See Figure . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace RKE module and retest system operation. If resistance is not less than 5 ohms, repair open in White/Yellow wire between RKE module and RKE DLC connector and retest system operation.
