Passive Key
The passive key incorporates both the PATS and the RKE transmitter functions in a single device.
During key programming procedures, the PATS and RKE transmitter Identification (ID) of a passive key are both programmed. A maximum of 8 passive keys can be programmed.
If the passive key battery fails, the passive key contains a key blade to unlock the door manually. Additionally, the passive key must be placed in the PATS transceiver backup slot to start the vehicle.
The passive key also contains a removable mechanical key blade that can be used to unlock the driver door.
