Circuit/System Description
When a transmitter authentication is requested, the front console, rear console, and rear compartment antennas simultaneously broadcast a challenge within the passenger compartment to the transmitter. If the response from the transmitter via radio frequency (RF) is a valid response, the body control module (BCM) determines there is a transmitter within the vehicle. If no response is received, the BCM determines that no transmitter is in the vehicle, and NO REMOTE DETECTED will be displayed on the DIC.
Diagnostic Aids
A low transmitter battery or radio frequency (RF) interference from aftermarket devices such as 2-way radios, power inverters, cellular phone chargers, computers, 12 V power outlet USB converters, 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.
Conditions caused by external influences such are these are considered to be normal. Following this diagnostic will not diagnose an RF interference condition. If RF interference is suspected, question the customer about the conditions or location where the NO REMOTE DETECTED condition occurs.

Refer to
Diagnostic Procedure Instructions
to provide an overview of each diagnostic category.
Circuit/System Description
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, which then sends the signal to the body control module (BCM). The BCM interprets the signal and activates the requested function. 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.
Diagnostic Aids
Unwanted or inadvertent door lock/unlock activation may be requested by the OnStar® Remote Link app. It is possible that a customer may be unaware of account usage, result in an unwanted or phantom door lock/unlock. If normal system diagnosis does results in an inability to verify the customer's concern, contact Technical Assistance Center (TAC).
If available, the EL 43241 Keyless Entry Tester may be used to diagnose a low transmitter battery or a malfunctioning transmitter. To test, place the transmitter on the test pad of the EL 43241 and press each transmitter button one at a time, holding each button for three seconds. If the green light on the tester does not illuminate and a tone does not sound, first replace the transmitter battery and retest. If the malfunction continues after replacing the transmitter battery, replace the transmitter.
When using the EL 43241 Keyless Entry Tester, first inspect the keyless entry transmitter part number to determine that it is the correct model for the vehicle. An incorrect part number transmitter may pass the test, but it will not activate the keyless entry system.

Diagnostic Procedure Instructions
to provide an overview of each diagnostic category.
Circuit/System Description
Remote start begins as an radio frequency message received by the Body Control Module (BCM) from a keyless entry transmitter. The BCM monitors system conditions such as content theft deterrent, hood ajar status,
and body DTCs to determine if a remote start event will occur. If conditions are determined to be acceptable, the remote start message is sent to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM monitors system conditions such as engine control parameters and the immobilizer system to determine if engine starting will be allowed. If conditions are acceptable, the ECM will activate the appropriate vehicle systems.
Diagnostic Aids
The scan tool Body Control Module Remote Vehicle Start Disable History 1 Data and Remote Vehicle Start Disable History 2 Data lists can be used to help isolate an intermittent malfunction with remote vehicle starting. These data lists identify the status of various items that may disable remote vehicle starting during the past two remote vehicle start attempts. Any parameters that does not equal the expected result required for remote vehicle starting should be diagnosed in their respective subsection.
Unwanted or inadvertent door lock/unlock activation may be requested by the OnStar® Remote Link app. It is possible that a customer may be unaware of account usage, result in an unwanted or phantom door lock/unlock. If normal system diagnosis does results in an inability to verify the customer's concern, contact Technical Assistance Center (TAC).
A remote start event will not always start the vehicle engine. If the high voltage battery state of charge is sufficient to operate the vehicle systems or the vehicle is plugged in and the ambient air temperature is above -3°C (26°F), the engine will not start. This temperature is adjustable through vehicle personalization.
If the vehicle has a current vehicle DTC that illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp, the cause of the DTC must be diagnosed before proceeding with the remote start malfunction diagnostic.

REMOTE CONTROL DOOR LOCK AND THEFT DETERRENT TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING
Programming Transmitters
Transmitters can be programming in various ways using the procedures outlined below. Using the Replacing Transmitters procedures will first erase all the known transmitters from the vehicle. Any existing transmitters and any new transmitters will then be programmed. This procedure should be used any time a transmitter is required to be unlearned or erased from a vehicle. If a new transmitter is being learned to a vehicle to replace a damaged, inoperative, or stolen transmitter, the Replacing Transmitters procedure must be used. This ensures that the old transmitter cannot be used to access or start the vehicle after programming.
The Adding Transmitters procedure does not erase any transmitters prior to programming. The procedure will simply program the transmitter into the next available slot. The Adding Transmitters procedure should only be used when adding an additional transmitter to the vehicle. The Adding Keys procedure should never be used to program a transmitter to a vehicle that is having a transmitter replaced, regardless of the cause for the replacement.
Replacing Transmitters (Without SPS)
NOTE:
Verify all mechanical keys operate correctly before beginning any programming procedures.
This procedure will unlearn all previously learned transmitters. All transmitters that are to be programmed must be with the vehicle at the time of service.
This procedure will take approximately 35 minutes to complete.
A total of 8 transmitters can be learned to a single vehicle.
This procedure will only learn the vehicle transmitter information. This procedure will not learn any immobilizer information between the body control module (BCM) and engine control module (ECM).
This procedure may be used with or without existing learned transmitters being present. If existing transmitters are present, keep the transmitters away from the vicinity of the vehicle. Failure to keep learned transmitters away from the vehicle will result in the learn changing to the Adding Transmitters procedure.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
GARAGE DOOR OPENER DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The garage door opener is fixed and rolling code capable. Rolling code is a system that allows the code that the customers receiver receives from the garage door opener to change every time the garage door opener is used within operating range of the receiver. Rolling code programming requires the customer to push a learn/program button on the garage door opener receiver at their home. This button is usually located on the receiver unit under a cover (light cover) on one end of the unit. The customer must follow the garage door opener manufacturers instructions to program/learn the receiver to accept the Universal Home Remote System as an authorized opener for their unit. When the receiver and the garage door opener are initially programmed together, a code is established and a new code is created for every new transmission. The software in the receiver recognizes the garage door opener and accepts the new code.
The garage door opener is compatible with most, but not all types and brands of transmitters.
The garage door opener is a transmitter operating between 288 - 434 MHz. The power and range of the transmitter is limited to comply with laws governing the generation of radio frequency interference. The transmitter is programmed by the user to accept the signal generated by the user's transmitters.
The garage door opener has 3 buttons that may be programmed for individual transmitter/receiver combinations to control up to 3 garage door openers, security gates, lighting systems, etc. Each button represents a transmitter code section of the transmitter, which operates separately from any other button, and may be considered a separate transmitter. Operation consists of simply pressing a button to activate the corresponding transmitter.
NOTE: Do not use the garage door opener (GDO) with any garage door opener that does not have the stop and reverse safety feature. This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982.

Keyless Entry System Description and Operation - Active
The keyless entry system is a vehicle entry device. The keyless entry system is used in conjunction with the door locks to unlock the vehicle. Keyless entry will lock/unlock the vehicle doors or open the rear compartment
lid when a corresponding button on the keyless entry transmitter is pressed. This is accomplished by the transmitter sending a radio frequency to the remote control door lock receiver antenna that has a direct link to the body control module (BCM). The BCM interprets the signal and activates the requested function or requests the appropriate control module to activate the function via a serial data message. A low transmitter battery or radio frequency interference from aftermarket devices, such as 2-way radios, power inverters, computers, etc., may cause a system malfunction. High radio frequency traffic areas, such as gas stations that use pay-at-the- pump radio frequency transponders, may also cause interference that could lead to a malfunction. Keyless entry allows you to operate the following features:
Door lock/unlock
Remote start
Charge port door release
Illuminated entry lamps
Panic alarm/vehicle locator
Remote vehicle start
Keyless Entry System Description and Operation - Passive
Passive keyless entry allows entry to a locked vehicle without pressing any buttons on the keyless entry transmitter. You must only have the transmitter with you. The passive entry system use low frequency antennas in several different areas on the vehicle to determine the location of the transmitter. When passively opening a locked door or the rear compartment, you must have a programmed transmitter with you in your pocket, purse, or briefcase.
When an exterior door handle button is pressed or the rear compartment touch pad is pressed, the low frequency antenna sends out a challenge to the keyless entry transmitter. Because of the low frequency, communication range is limited. The antenna will emit the challenge in a one meter range. The transmitter must be within this range to receive the challenge. The transmitter receives this challenge and emits it's response as an RF message, which is received by the remote control door lock receiver. If the response is correct, the door or rear compartment will unlock and open.
As a customer convenience feature, the keyless entry system will notify the driver if the transmitter has been left in the vehicle after exiting by chirping the vehicle horn three times. This may be turned off using vehicle personalization. Also, if the transmitter is left in the vehicle after the central door lock switch has been used to lock the vehicle, the driver door will remain unlocked after exiting the vehicle. This is intended to prevent locking the transmitter in the vehicle and being unable to access it.
Keyless Entry System Description and Operation - Keyless Start
The keyless start portion of the keyless entry system allows vehicle starting, having only the transmitter as your key. The keyless start system uses low frequency antennas in three different locations on the vehicle to determine the location of the transmitter. Multiple antennas are used to ensure complete coverage of the vehicle interior and rear compartment. When using the keyless start system, a programmed transmitter must be in the vehicle's interior, such as the driver's pocket, purse, or briefcase.
When the ignition mode switch is pressed, the low frequency antennas emit a challenge to the keyless entry transmitter. The transmitter receives this challenge and emits it's response as an RF message, which is received by the remote control door lock receiver. If the response is correct, vehicle starting will be allowed. If RF
communication is interrupted, a "No Remote Detected" message will be displayed on the DIC. In these cases, the extended transmitter key blade can be placed in the transmitter slot located in the upper instrument panel storage compartment, under the rubber mat. The immobilizer antenna coil is located directly beneath the transmitter slot. Placing the extended key blade in the slot will create a low powered coupling between the transmitter and immobilizer antenna, allowing communications to occur and enabling vehicle starting.
The keyless entry system has the following components:
Vehicle key with integrated keyless entry transmitter
Driver and front passenger door antennas (part of the door handle assembly)
Driver and front passenger door handle switches (part of the door handle assembly)
Rear fascia antenna
Front instrument panel console antenna
Center console antenna
Rear compartment antenna
Body control module (BCM)
Keyless entry control module
Immobilizer antenna coil
Remote control door lock receiver
Keyless Entry Transmitters
The keyless entry transmitters are used to lock and unlock the vehicle door while away from the immediate are of the vehicle. Keyless entry functions may work at up to 20 m (65 ft) from the vehicle. The keyless entry transmitter is an integral part of the vehicle key.
Door Antenna
The keyless entry door antennas are used to transmit low frequency communications to the keyless entry transmitters.
The keyless entry door antennas are located in the left front and right front exterior door handle bracket. The antennas are serviced as part of the door handle assembly. The antennas are controlled by the keyless entry control module. When the exterior door handle button is pressed, the respective antenna will send out a challenge to the keyless entry transmitter, which begins the passive entry communications.
Rear Fascia Antenna
The rear fascia antenna is used to transmit low frequency communication to the keyless entry transmitters for entry to rear compartment.
The rear fascia antenna is located behind the rear fascia. The antenna is controlled by the keyless entry control module. When the rear compartment touch pad is pressed, the antenna sends out a challenge to the keyless entry transmitter, which begins the passive entry communications.
Front Console Passive (Instrument Panel) Antenna
This antenna is located in the lower instrument panel near the front of the center console.
The front console antenna is used for vehicle starting functions. When the ignition mode switch is pressed, the antenna is energized or "pinged". This emits a low frequency challenge signal that is received by the keyless entry transmitter. The transmitter will then reply to this challenge with a response and, if correct, vehicle starting will occur.
Center Console Antenna
This antenna is located in the rear of the center console.
The rear console antenna is used for vehicle starting functions. When the ignition mode switch is pressed, the antenna is energized or "pinged". This emits a low frequency challenge signal that is received by the keyless entry transmitter. The transmitter will then reply to this challenge with a response and, if correct, vehicle starting will occur.
Rear Compartment Antenna
This antenna is located in the center of the rear compartment metal floor pan, near the seatback.
The rear compartment antenna is used for vehicle starting functions. When the ignition mode switch is pressed, the antenna is energized or "pinged". This emits a low frequency challenge signal that is received by the keyless entry transmitter. The transmitter will then reply to this challenge with a response and, if correct, vehicle starting will occur.
Remote Control Door Lock Receiver
The remote control door lock receiver is located on the vehicle windshield, directly in front of the inside rearview mirror.
The remote control door lock receiver is control by and directly communicates with the body control module (BCM). When the transmitter receives a low frequency challenge from an antenna, it responds with an RF message. This RF message is received by the remote control door lock receiver and communicated to the BCM. If the RF message is a valid response to the low frequency challenge, vehicle access or starting will be allowed.
Immobilizer Antenna Coil Assembly
The keyless entry immobilizer coil assembly is located in the upper instrument panel, directly beneath the upper instrument panel storage compartment. If the transmitter battery is dead, weak, or the RF signal is being interrupted, the extended transmitter key blade can be placed in the transmitter slot located in the upper instrument panel storage compartment, under the rubber mat, to create a low powered coupling between the transmitter and immobilizer antenna, allowing communications to occur and enabling vehicle starting.
The immobilizer antenna coil is controlled by the BCM. The immobilizer control module is also active when learning vehicle keys.
