For 1990-2009 cars

The remote keyless entry (RKE) system allows operation of the door locks and interior lighting from outside the vehicle. Radio frequencies or discharged batteries may disable the system.

Keyless entry allows you to operate the following components:

• | The door locks

• | The illuminated entry lamps

• | The panic alarm (instant alarm)

The keyless entry system has the following main components:

• | The transmitters

• | The body control module (BCM)

When you press a button on a transmitter, the transmitter sends a signal to the BCM. The BCM interprets the signal and activates the requested function.

### Rolling Code

The keyless entry system uses rolling code technology. Rolling code technology prevents anyone from recording the message sent from the transmitter and using the message in order to gain entry to the vehicle. The term "rolling code" refers to the way that the keyless entry system sends and receives the signals. The transmitter sends the signal in a different order each time. The transmitter and the Body Control Module (BCM) are synchronized to the appropriate order. If a programmed transmitter sends a signal that is not in the order that the BCM expects, then the transmitter is out of synchronization. This occurs after 256 presses of any transmitter button when it is out of range of the vehicle.
