Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The RKE system uses an Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT). The IKT incorporates both the Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) functions and the RKE transmitter functions in a single device.

The RKE transmitter is programmed automatically during PATS programming. During PATS programming, the BCM obtains the Transmitter Identification Code (TIC) from the IKT .

The BCM accepts programming of up to 4 IKTs . In addition to the IKTs , 4 conventional keyfobs can also be programmed to the vehicle if requested by the customer. For information on programming the IKTs , refer to the key programming procedures in ANTI-THEFT - PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (PATS) . Refer to REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY (RKE) TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING for keyfob programming information.
