The access panel entry system is a supplementary vehicle entry device. Radio
frequencies or discharged batteries may disable the system.
The access panel entry system allows you to operate the following components:
| • | The Left Front Access Panel if equipped |
| • | The Left Rear Access Panel |
| • | The Right Rear Access Panel |
Pro/Access models use the key fob to activate up to 3 access panels depending
on the cargo door option:
| • | One access panel on the right side of the vehicle. |
| • | One access panel on the left side of vehicles equipped with left side
cargo doors. |
| • | Two access panels on the left side of vehicles not equipped with left
side cargo doors. |
The access panel entry system has the following main components:
| • | The remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR). |
| • | The body control module (BCM). |
This vehicle is not equipped with remote keyless entry system (RKE). The transmitter
is used exclusively to operate the access panels. When you press any button on a programmed
k transmitter, the transmitter sends a signal to the RCDLR. The RCDLR sends a class 2
message to the body control module (BCM) which activates the appropriate access panel
relay, releasing the panel.
Rolling Code
The access panel 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
RCDLR are synchronized to the appropriate order. If a programmed transmitter sends
a signal that is not in the order that the RCDLR 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.
