Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Buick Verano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The driver door handle antenna is located in the driver door handle assembly and is used to establish low frequency communications with the keyless entry transmitter. As a vehicle with locked doors is approached with a keyless entry transmitter and the release handle is pulled, the keyless entry control module communicates with the driver door handle keyless entry antenna.
