Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Remote Transmitter Lock/Unlock Control - Lock
The remote transmitter provides lock functions independently of key position, vehicle speed or transmission position. The remote transmitter requests that all the doors be locked when the remote transmitter LOCK button is pressed. When the LOCK button is pressed once all doors lock. If the LOCK button is pressed again within 3 seconds of the first, the horn will chirp to confirm all doors (and hood, if equipped with alarm) are locked and closed. If any door, liftgate, or hood (with perimeter alarm) is ajar when the second lock request is received, 2 chirps will be heard.
