NOTICE:

When replacing the transmitter battery, before starting work, remove static electricity that has built up in the body by touching, for example, the vehicle to prevent the door control transmitter assembly from being damaged.

HINT:

When a new or non-depleted transmitter battery is not available, first connect 2 new 1.5 V batteries in series. Then connect leads to the batteries and apply 3 V to the door control transmitter assembly, as shown in the illustration.

(3) From outside the vehicle, approximately 1 m (3.28 ft) from the driver door outside door handle, test the door control transmitter assembly by pointing its key plate at the vehicle and pressing a door control transmitter assembly switch.

OK:

The door lock can be operated via the door control transmitter assembly.

(b) Inspect the transmitter battery capacity.
