Before starting this procedure, BOTH transmitters must be present. Failure to program the transmitters to the proper numbers will render the RFA system inoperative. (If the customer uses only one transmitter on the vehicle, use this transmitter as both transmitter 1 and 2. This is not the normal situation.) A scan tool may also be used to program the RFA system.
Synchronizing Transmitters
To synchronize transmitters, perform the following steps:
1. Press and hold the TRUNK button and within one second, press and hold the LOCK button.
2. Continue to hold both buttons for approximately seven seconds and then release.
3. If the transmitter was out of synchronization it will now function properly.
