PINPOINT TEST F: THE DOORS DO NOT LOCK/UNLOCK USING THE REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE) TRANSMITTER


F1-F5:






F6-F9:






Normal Operation
Remote locking and unlocking of the doors is accomplished by the driver door module (DDM) receiving a command message from the RKE transmitter. The DDM processes the command and sends a signal directly to the door lock actuators.

All RKE transmitters must be present to begin diagnosis of the RKE system.

Aftermarket or dealer-installed systems may adversely affect the RKE system operation. These systems should be disconnected before diagnosing any RKE concerns.

Possible Causes
- RKE transmitter battery
- RKE transmitter programming
- RKE transmitter
- DDM
