Exterior Door Handle Switch

When the exterior door handle switch is pressed, a low frequency antenna sends out a challenge to the key fob. If the challenge is met, the key fob will respond, allowing the door(s) to be locked or unlocked. This test commands the Keyless Entry Control Module to act as if it received an input from the exterior door handle switch. See the service manual for a description of the operation.

  1. Turn off the ignition.
  2. Lock the doors.
  3. Stand outside the door with a valid key fob.
  4. Press [Test].
