The following wiring test sequence determines whether or not voltage is continuous through the body harness to switch. DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (1) Remove left side switch from door trim panel. (2) Carefully separate multiple terminal block on DOOR LOCK MOTOR wiring harness from switch body.

GENERAL INFORMATION INTRODUCTION The key fob transmitter has three buttons to actu- ate and program the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system (Fig. 1). • UNLOCK: Actuating the UNLOCK button once will unlock the driver door and activate the illumi- nated entry system. Actuating the UNLOCK button twice within five seconds will unlock all doors. • LOCK: Actuating the LOCK button locks all doors and sounds horn (chirp). The chirp verifies the door lock operation. • PANIC: Actuating the PANIC button sounds the horns and alternately flashes the headlamps and parking lamps. The panic alarm will remain on for one minute, until the PANIC button is actuated Fig. 1 Key Fob Transmitter again or the ignition is switched to the RUN position.
