Electronic Door Lock Control System

^ remote anti-theft personality module, located underneath instrument panel to the right of the steering column
^ five-button keyless entry keypad on the driver door (optional on GL, GS and Wagon)

The door locks are wired so that the lock and unlock switches on the doors I liftgate can operate the door locks with or without a remote anti-theft personality module installed in the system. The door lock switches are wired directly to the relays that control the door locks.
