Intelligent Access (IA): Notes
NOTE:
The IA
feature is a programmable parameter and can be enabled/disabled with a scan tool. If the feature is disabled, the IA
feature to enter the vehicle and passive starting are inoperative. To start the vehicle, the IA
key must be placed in the backup transceiver slot.
The IA feature unlocks or locks the doors or opens the liftgate without having to use a mechanical key or the RKE transmitter feature.
NOTE:
When the RFA
module detects that a lock or unlock sensor is touched on a front exterior door handle or the liftgate release button is pressed, it activates the low frequency antenna in the corresponding exterior front door handle or inside the rear bumper cover. The low frequency antenna sends out a signal to the IA
key. The low frequency signal activates the IA
key and the IA
key then sends a high frequency signal back to the TPM
module. The TPM
module interprets the high frequency signal from the IA
key and sends the information to the RFA
module. If the RFA
module determines that it is a programmed key, the RFA
module either unlocks the driver door, unlocks or locks all 4 doors, or opens the liftgate.
