Handles, Locks, Latches and Entry Systems - System Operation and Component Description — 2016 workshop reference 1367

lock/unlock sensors are wired to the BCM. When activated, the antenna transmits a low frequency signal to activate a passive key.

Keyless Entry Rear Antenna

The keyless entry rear antenna is monitored and activated by the BCM. When activated, it transmits a low frequency signal to activate a passive key.

RTM

The RTM communicates all RKE and passive key information to the BCM over a LIN-based circuit whether or not the CAN is active. The RTM is a receiving antenna that receives the high frequency signals from passive keys.

The RTM requires PMI when replaced.

BCM

The BCM is the master module in control of the power door lock system. It is responsible for locking/unlocking the doors. The BCM receives inputs for the door lock control switches, passive keys and RKE commands over the CAN.

The BCM requires PMI when replaced. Additionally, at least 2 keys must be programmed and the parameter reset procedure carried out.
