Power Locks: Description and Operation
^ Remote accessory control (RAC) module receives digitally encoded UHF signals from a key chain transmitter. No two transmitters have the same code.^ Effective range of transmitter is approximately 10.0 meters (33 feet) above 0°C (32°F) and 7.0 meters (23 feet) below 0°C (32°F).
^ RAC module operates door locks, luggage compartment lid release, retained accessory power, remote keyless entry/automatic door locks, illuminated entry and theft deterrent system (if equipped).
^ If vehicle is started with gear selector lever in NEUTRAL, automatic door locks are disabled until next time vehicle is started with gear selector lever in PARK.
^ The vehicle is initially programmed at the factory to lock all doors when the gear selector is shifted out of park, and to unlock all doors when the gear selector is shifted back into park. However, this function can be overridden by reprogramming the RAC module as follows:
Close all doors and turn ignition switch to RUN. Depress brake pedal. Press and hold the power door lock switch in the LOCK position and cycle the gear selector out of and back into park, release lock switch. All doors will now lock when the gear selector is shifted out of park and remain locked until unlocked manually or the power door lock switch is operated.
The initial lock/unlock feature can be reprogrammed as follows:
Close all doors and turn ignition switch to RUN. Depress brake pedal. Press and hold the power door lock switch in the UNLOCK position and cycle the gear selector out of and back into park, release lock switch.
