With the passive unlocking feature, the motion sensor in the transmitter causes the transmitter to send an identification code to the receiver. The receiver will unlock the driver door or both doors depending on selected features. The receiver sends the message on the serial data line to the Door Control Module (DCM) to unlock the appropriate doors. The Body Control Module (BCM) then disarms the UTD system and activates the courtesy lamps if ambient light is low. The appropriate doors will then unlock. Inserting the ignition key disables the passive unlocking feature.
With the passive locking feature, the receiver sends a message through the serial data line to the DCMs to lock both doors, and the doors lock. The BCM then arms the UTD system. Inserting the ignition key disables the passive locking feature.
The PASSIVE ON/OFF slider switch provides the capability to deactivate the passive unlocking and locking features. Sliding the switch to OFF turns off the transmitter motion sensor which deactivates the passive functions. Sliding the switch to ON turns on the sensor which activates the passive functions. The manual button functions are not affected whether the slider switch is in the PASSIVE ON position or the PASSIVE OFF position.
