Keyless Entry Personalization

Personalization of the remote activation verification is only available on select vehicles equipped with either a Driver Information Center or a Secondary Information Center. For mode descriptions and programming instructions, refer to Driver Personalization in Personalization.

Rolling Code

The keyless entry system uses rolling code technology. Rolling code technology prevents anyone from recording the message sent from the transmitter and using the message in order to gain entry to the vehicle. The term "rolling code" refers to the way that the keyless entry system sends and receives the signals. The transmitter sends the signal in a different order each time. The transmitter and the PDM are synchronized to the appropriate order. If a programmed transmitter sends a signal that is not in the order that the PDM expects, then the transmitter is out of synchronization. This occurs after 256 presses of any transmitter button when it is out of range of the vehicle.
