Trouble Shooting: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass and 1997 Chevrolet Malibu. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
If vehicle is left for 24 or more days without ignition switch being placed in RUN position, keyless entry will be disabled to decrease battery drain. Placing ignition switch in RUN position will restore system.
- Ensure all grounds and terminal contacts are clean and tight. Check ALARM fuse by observing operation of warning chimes. Check DR LK1 fuse by operating power door locks. Check battery transmitter terminals.
- Try a known-good second transmitter. If transmitter works, change batteries in first transmitter. If first transmitter still does not work, replace transmitter.
- Ensure any aftermarket electronic equipment is properly installed.
