Backup Starting
NOTE:
There are certain areas within the vehicle where the passive key may not be detected and the message center displays No Key Detected. If the passive key is in the far outside edges of the interior (such as in a door map pocket or above a sun visor), it may not be detected. Move the passive key to a different location and try to turn the ignition on.
When the vehicle experiences a PATS condition, the Key Not Detected message displays in the message center when the START/STOP button is pressed.
In the event of one of these failures, place a programmed passive key in the backup location next to the PATS transceiver to allow the vehicle to start. When the START/STOP button is pressed, the PATS transceiver activates the passive key and the identification code is sent to the RFA module. The PATS transceiver backup slot is located on the steering column in the same location as a conventional ignition lock cylinder would be.
