Keyless Entry Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
When a PCM and the SKREEM are replaced at the same time, perform the following steps in

order:

1. Program the new PCM.

2. Program the new SKREEM.

3. Replace all ignition keys and program them to the new SKREEM.
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) is sometimes referred to as the Wireless Control

Module (WCM). The SKREEM/WCM is the primary component of the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System (SKIS). It is also the receiver for the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system and the Tire
Pressure Monitor (TPM) system. The SKREEM/WCM is located on the steering column, around the
ignition lock cylinder housing and is concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The molded
black plastic housing for the SKREEM/WCM has an integral molded plastic halo-like antenna ring
(3) that extends from one side. When the SKREEM/WCM is properly installed, the antenna ring is
oriented around the ignition lock cylinder housing.

A single connector (4) is located next to the antenna ring on the SKREEM/WCM housing (3). A
molded plastic mounting tab (2) on the SKREEM/WCM housing secures the unit to the steering
column. The SKREEM/WCM is connected to the vehicle electrical system through the instrument
panel wire harness.

The SKREEM/WCM cannot be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or damaged, the entire SKREEM unit
must be replaced.

Keyless Entry Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM), sometimes referred to as the Wireless Control

Module (WCM), contains a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver and a microprocessor. The
SKREEM/WCM transmits RF signals to, and receives RF signals from the Sentry Key transponder
through a tuned antenna enclosed within the molded plastic antenna ring integral to the
SKREEM/WCM housing. If this antenna ring is not mounted properly around the ignition lock
cylinder housing, communication problems between the SKREEM/WCM and the transponder may
arise. These communication problems will result in Sentry Key transponder-related faults.

The SKREEM also serves as the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) RF receiver and, if the vehicle is so
equipped, the receiver for the Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) system. The SKREEM/WCM
communicates over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus with the Electromechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (sometimes referred to as the Cab Compartment Node (CCN), the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM), and/or the diagnostic scan tool.

The SKREEM/WCM retains in memory the ID numbers of any Sentry Key transponder that is
programmed into it. A maximum of eight Sentry Key transponders can be programmed into the
SKREEM/WCM. For added system security, each SKREEM/WCM is programmed with a unique
Secret Key code. This code is stored in memory, sent over the CAN data bus to the PCM, and is
encoded to the transponder of every Sentry Key that is programmed into the SKREEM/WCM.
Therefore, the Secret Key code is a common element that is found in every component of the
Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS). Another security code, called a PIN, is used to gain access
to the SKREEM/WCM Secured Access Mode. The Secured Access Mode is required during
service to perform the SKIS initialization and Sentry Key transponder programming procedures.
The SKREEM/WCM also stores the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in its memory, which it
learns through a CAN data bus message from the PCM during SKIS initialization.

NOTE: After a SKREEM/WCM is replaced, the ignition/transponder keys need to be programmed
to the new SKREEM/WCM. Follow the directions on the diagnostic scan tool. The transponder key
for the SKREES/SKIM and the RKE will both be programmed during this operation. There is no
need to program the fob of the key for RKE functionality once the transponder key is programmed
to the new SKREEM/WCM.

In the event that a SKREEM/WCM replacement is required, the Secret Key code can be
transferred to the new SKREEM/WCM from the PCM using the diagnostic scan tool and the SKIS
initialization procedure. Proper completion of the SKIS initialization will allow the existing Sentry
Keys to be programmed into the new SKREEM/WCM so that new keys will not be required. In the
event that the original Secret Key code cannot be recovered, SKREEM/WCM replacement will also
require new Sentry Keys. The diagnostic scan tool will alert the technician during the SKIS
initialization procedure if new Sentry Keys are required.

When the ignition switch is turned to the On position, the SKREEM/WCM transmits an RF signal to
the transponder in the ignition key. The SKREEM/WCM then waits for an RF signal response from
the transponder. If the response received identifies the key as valid, the SKREEM/WCM sends a
valid key message to the PCM over the CAN data bus. If the response received identifies the key
as invalid or if no response is received from the key transponder, the SKREEM/WCM sends an
invalid key message to the PCM. The PCM will enable or disable engine operation based upon the
status of the SKREEM/WCM messages. It is important to note that the default condition in the PCM
is an invalid key; therefore, if no message is received from the SKREEM/WCM by the PCM, the
engine will be disabled and the vehicle immobilized after two seconds of running.

The SKREEM/WCM also sends security indicator status messages to the EMIC/CCN over the CAN
data bus to tell the EMIC/CCN how to operate the security indicator. The security indicator status
message from the SKREEM/WCM tells the EMIC/CCN to turn the indicator on for about three
seconds each time the ignition switch is turned to the On position as a bulb test. After completion of

the bulb test, the SKREEM/WCM sends security indicator status messages to the EMIC/CCN to
turn the indicator off, turn the indicator on, or to flash the indicator on and off. If the security
indicator flashes or stays on solid after the bulb test, it signifies a SKIS fault. If the SKREEM/WCM
detects a system malfunction and/or the SKIS has become inoperative, the security indicator will
stay on solid. If the SKREEM/WCM detects an invalid key or if a key transponder-related fault
exists, the security indicator will flash. If the vehicle is equipped with the Customer Learn
transponder programming feature, the SKREEM/WCM will also send messages to the EMIC/CCN
to flash the security indicator whenever the Customer Learn programming mode is being utilized.

The SKIS performs a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to the On position, and will
store fault information in the form of a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in SKREEM/WCM memory if
a system malfunction is detected. The SKREEM/WCM can be diagnosed, and any stored DTC can
be retrieved using a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Keyless Entry Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
When a PCM and the SKREEM are replaced at the same time, perform the following steps in

order:

1. Program the new PCM.

2. Program the new SKREEM.

3. Replace all ignition keys and program them to the new SKREEM.
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) is sometimes referred to as the Wireless Control

Module (WCM). The SKREEM/WCM is the primary component of the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System (SKIS). It is also the receiver for the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system and the Tire
Pressure Monitor (TPM) system. The SKREEM/WCM is located on the steering column, around the
ignition lock cylinder housing and is concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The molded
black plastic housing for the SKREEM/WCM has an integral molded plastic halo-like antenna ring
(3) that extends from one side. When the SKREEM/WCM is properly installed, the antenna ring is
oriented around the ignition lock cylinder housing.

A single connector (4) is located next to the antenna ring on the SKREEM/WCM housing (3). A
molded plastic mounting tab (2) on the SKREEM/WCM housing secures the unit to the steering
column. The SKREEM/WCM is connected to the vehicle electrical system through the instrument

Keyless Entry Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM), sometimes referred to as the Wireless Control

Module (WCM), contains a Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver and a microprocessor. The
SKREEM/WCM transmits RF signals to, and receives RF signals from the Sentry Key transponder
through a tuned antenna enclosed within the molded plastic antenna ring integral to the
SKREEM/WCM housing. If this antenna ring is not mounted properly around the ignition lock
cylinder housing, communication problems between the SKREEM/WCM and the transponder may
arise. These communication problems will result in Sentry Key transponder-related faults.

The SKREEM also serves as the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) RF receiver and, if the vehicle is so
equipped, the receiver for the Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) system. The SKREEM/WCM
communicates over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus with the Electromechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (sometimes referred to as the Cab Compartment Node (CCN), the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM), and/or the diagnostic scan tool.

The SKREEM/WCM retains in memory the ID numbers of any Sentry Key transponder that is
programmed into it. A maximum of eight Sentry Key transponders can be programmed into the
SKREEM/WCM. For added system security, each SKREEM/WCM is programmed with a unique
Secret Key code. This code is stored in memory, sent over the CAN data bus to the PCM, and is
encoded to the transponder of every Sentry Key that is programmed into the SKREEM/WCM.
Therefore, the Secret Key code is a common element that is found in every component of the
Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS). Another security code, called a PIN, is used to gain access
to the SKREEM/WCM Secured Access Mode. The Secured Access Mode is required during
service to perform the SKIS initialization and Sentry Key transponder programming procedures.
The SKREEM/WCM also stores the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) in its memory, which it
learns through a CAN data bus message from the PCM during SKIS initialization.

NOTE: After a SKREEM/WCM is replaced, the ignition/transponder keys need to be programmed
to the new SKREEM/WCM. Follow the directions on the diagnostic scan tool. The transponder key
for the SKREES/SKIM and the RKE will both be programmed during this operation. There is no
need to program the fob of the key for RKE functionality once the transponder key is programmed
to the new SKREEM/WCM.

In the event that a SKREEM/WCM replacement is required, the Secret Key code can be
transferred to the new SKREEM/WCM from the PCM using the diagnostic scan tool and the SKIS
initialization procedure. Proper completion of the SKIS initialization will allow the existing Sentry
Keys to be programmed into the new SKREEM/WCM so that new keys will not be required. In the
event that the original Secret Key code cannot be recovered, SKREEM/WCM replacement will also
require new Sentry Keys. The diagnostic scan tool will alert the technician during the SKIS
initialization procedure if new Sentry Keys are required.

When the ignition switch is turned to the On position, the SKREEM/WCM transmits an RF signal to
the transponder in the ignition key. The SKREEM/WCM then waits for an RF signal response from
the transponder. If the response received identifies the key as valid, the SKREEM/WCM sends a
valid key message to the PCM over the CAN data bus. If the response received identifies the key
as invalid or if no response is received from the key transponder, the SKREEM/WCM sends an
invalid key message to the PCM. The PCM will enable or disable engine operation based upon the
status of the SKREEM/WCM messages. It is important to note that the default condition in the PCM
is an invalid key; therefore, if no message is received from the SKREEM/WCM by the PCM, the
engine will be disabled and the vehicle immobilized after two seconds of running.

The SKREEM/WCM also sends security indicator status messages to the EMIC/CCN over the CAN
data bus to tell the EMIC/CCN how to operate the security indicator. The security indicator status
message from the SKREEM/WCM tells the EMIC/CCN to turn the indicator on for about three
seconds each time the ignition switch is turned to the On position as a bulb test. After completion of

the bulb test, the SKREEM/WCM sends security indicator status messages to the EMIC/CCN to
turn the indicator off, turn the indicator on, or to flash the indicator on and off. If the security
indicator flashes or stays on solid after the bulb test, it signifies a SKIS fault. If the SKREEM/WCM
detects a system malfunction and/or the SKIS has become inoperative, the security indicator will
stay on solid. If the SKREEM/WCM detects an invalid key or if a key transponder-related fault
exists, the security indicator will flash. If the vehicle is equipped with the Customer Learn
transponder programming feature, the SKREEM/WCM will also send messages to the EMIC/CCN
to flash the security indicator whenever the Customer Learn programming mode is being utilized.

The SKIS performs a self-test each time the ignition switch is turned to the On position, and will
store fault information in the form of a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in SKREEM/WCM memory if
a system malfunction is detected. The SKREEM/WCM can be diagnosed, and any stored DTC can
be retrieved using a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Seat Heater Control Module: Description and Operation Description
DESCRIPTION
The heated seat module (2) is located under the left front seat. It has a single electrical connector

(1) and a push pin style retainer that secures it to the seat pan. The module can be accessed from
under the front left seat with the seat in the full back position.

The heated seat module is a microprocessor designed to use the Local Interface Network (LIN)
data bus messages from the instrument cluster also known as the Cabin Compartment Node
(CCN). The CCN receives inputs from the heated seat switches and in turn signals the heated seat
module to operate the heated seat elements for both front seats.

Component Information > Description and Operation > Description > Page 64

Seat Heater Control Module: Description and Operation Operation
OPERATION
The heated seat module operates on fused battery current received from the ignition switch. The

module is grounded to the body at all times through the electrical connector. Inputs to the module
include Local Interface Network (LIN) data bus messages and standard hardwired 12 volt power
and ground. In response to the LIN inputs the heated seat module will control the battery current to
the appropriate heated seat elements.

When a heated seat switch LIN data bus signal is received by the heated seat module, the module
energizes the selected heated seat element. The Low heat set point is about 38° C (100.4° F), and
the High heat set point is about 42° C (107.6° F).

In addition to operating the heated seat elements, the heated seat module sends LED illumination
messages to the CCN via the LIN data bus. The CCN then sends the LED illumination message to
the accessory switch bank so that the appropriate LEDs are illuminated for any given heating level.
Pressing the switch once will select high-level heating. Pressing the switch a second time will
select low-level heating. Pressing the switch a third time will shut the heating elements off.

If the heated seat module detects a heated seat element OPEN or SHORT circuit, it will record and
store the appropriate diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Seat Heater Control Module: Testing and Inspection
HEATED SEAT MODULE
In order to obtain conclusive testing, the heated seat system and the Local Interface Network (LIN)

data bus circuit must be checked. Any diagnosis of the heated seat system should begin with the
use of a scan tool.

Refer to the appropriate wiring information for complete circuit schematic or connector pin-out
information.

NOTE: Vehicles equipped with the heated seat option utilize a low voltage cut-off feature. This
feature turns off power to the heated seat system anytime vehicle voltage is below 11.7v or above

15.5v. Be certain to check the vehicle electrical system for proper voltage anytime the power seat
system appears inoperative.

Before any testing of the heated seat system is attempted, the battery should be fully-charged.
