The keyless entry keypad (if equipped), located on the exterior of the driver door, provides a method for the customer to access the vehicle without a key or an RKE transmitter. The keyless entry keypad feature:

The keyless entry keypad feature operates independently of ignition status, vehicle speed, or transmission position. When a keypad button is pressed, the keypad buttons illuminate to provide better visibility. If buttons 7/8 and 9/0 are pressed simultaneously or 5 seconds have elapsed since the last button press, the illumination is turned off.

Vehicles equipped with a keyless entry keypad are programmed with a factory set 5-digit entry code. This code is provided to the customer on a wallet card in the Owner's Literature package. In addition, this code is available through the use of a scan tool, and is printed on the BCM label. When entering codes, each digit must be entered within 5 seconds of the previous button press.
