- Check the distance. The transmitter may be too far from the vehicle.
- Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be blocking the signal.
- Check the transmitter's battery. See “Battery Replacement” later in this
section.
- If the transmitter is still not working correctly, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.

Other information:
The charging system light comes on briefly when the ignition is turned on, but
the engine is not running, as a check to show the light is working. It should go
out when the engine is started.
If the light stays on, or comes on while driving, there may be a problem with
the electrical charging system...
All vehicles have a label underhood that identifies the refrigerant used in the
vehicle. The refrigerant system should only be serviced by trained and certified
technicians. The air conditioning evaporator should never be repaired or replaced
by one from a salvage vehicle...
