Theory Of Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 RAM 3500 HD and 2013 RAM 2500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Whenever the ignition is turned on or there is a remote start active, the RF Hub performs a self test and resynchronization routine. During the routine, the RF Hub interrogates the FOBIK for the secret key information and performs a CAN Bus message handshake with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to start the vehicle. The PCM must reply to the RF Hub that the secret key information matches to initiate the start sequence or this code will set.
