Starting Key Fob Operation:

Driving Key Fob Operation:

After starting the engine, the Vehicle Control Module (VCM) will verify that the key fob is within range again when shifting from neutral into gear. The security light may turn on during this check. The VCM will not search for the key fob again after the vehicle has moved. If the key fob is lost during riding, the PIN will be needed to restart the vehicle.
If the key fob is not detected when shifting into gear:
  • The horn will sound and the security light and/or power switch will flash.
  • The engine will then turn off.
  • The electrical system will then automatically shut down.
