Keyless Access System Description - Components
Engine Start/Stop Switch
Pressing the engine start/stop button changes the vehicle mode to OFF (LOCK), ACCESSORY, ON, or START mode. The engine start/stop switch also includes an LF antenna. When operating the backup function, engine start/stop switch receives the immobilizer signal from the remote, and sends an immobilizer signal to the body control module.
LF (Low Frequency) Antennas
The front interior, rear interior, and rear shelf LF antennas send the signals to the remote placed in the interior. The driver's door, front passenger's door, and rear bumper LF antennas send the signal to the remote when outside of the vehicle.
Door Outer Handle Touch Sensors and Outer Handle Lock Sensors
The door touch sensors and the outer handle lock sensors are built into the driver's and front passenger's door outer handles. To operate the door locks without the built-in key while carrying the remote, grip the door outer handle to unlock the doors and touch the outer handle lock sensor on the door outer handle to lock the doors.
Remote
The remote is equipped with a keyless transmitter, and all the doors can be locked and unlocked by a lock/unlock button operation, even from a remote distance from the vehicle. When the lock button or unlock button is pressed, the keyless transmitter sends the applicable switch signal to the body control module. After receiving authentication, the body control module controls the door lock/unlock actuator.
Keyless Buzzer
The keyless buzzer located inside the rear bumper sounds when smart entry functions.
