If your RKE transmitter fails to operate from a normal
distance, check for these two conditions:
1. Closeness to a radio transmitter, such as a radio station
tower, airport transmitter, and some mobile or CB radios
can affect transmitter operation. To verify if this is the
cause, move the vehicle to another area and test RKE
transmitter operation.
2. The RKE transmitter may become “out of sync” and
will no longer function if operated more than 255 times
while out of range of the vehicle (23 ft or 7 m) or if
operated while the vehicle battery is dead or discon-
nected. To “synchronize” the RKE transmitter, remove
the key from the ignition. Close the hood and all doors.
Press both buttons on the RKE transmitter for about
10 seconds. The horn will chirp once to acknowledge the
signal. Normal RKE transmitter operation should re-
sume.
3. The RKE transmitter battery may be weak or dead.
The expected life of the battery is a minimum of three
years.
