Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 GMC Savana 3500, 2018 GMC Savana 2500, 2018 Chevrolet Express 3500, and 2018 Chevrolet Express 2500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The keyless entry system is a vehicle entry device. The keyless entry will unlock the vehicle doors or open the rear compartment when a corresponding button on the keyless entry transmitter is pressed. This is accomplished by the keyless entry transmitter sending a radio frequency to the remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR). The RCDLR interprets the signal and activates the requested function via a message over the GMLAN serial data line. A low transmitter battery or radio frequency (RF) interference from aftermarket devices such as 2-way radios, power inverters, cellular phone chargers, computers, etc. may cause a system malfunction. High RF traffic areas, such as gas stations which use pay-at-the-pump RF transponders, may also cause interference that could lead to a malfunction.
