Remote Entry System

Remote keyless entry (RKE) systems add a new level of convenience to the car. They make it unnecessary to locate a car key in dark areas or struggle with getting it into the lock. Some also let you unlock the trunk. This is especially useful for loading groceries and transporting packages. The system also allows you to start your car without a physical key.

To operate a RKE your key fob transmits a radio signal containing an identification code digitally sent to the car's onboard computer when it's within the range. The car then checks the code against an approved list of codes and allows access. In the majority of cases the signal is only one-way and cannot be used to unlock doors from more than 50 feet away.

Each time you press the button on your Mitsubishi keyfob, it sends out an unique RF signal. The car's radio detects the signals and demodulates them, transforming them to extract the data. It also removes unwanted RF signals. The data stream is then transferred to a central processor unit (CPU), who decodes it and transmits commands to the command module.

These systems use lots of power since they are wireless. They must remain on continuously to look for a signal from a key fob, so the battery needs to last a long duration. This makes it difficult to attain a suitable range and an acceptable price.

The majority of RKE systems employ rolling code as an additional security measure. When the transmitter receives a request for authentication, it transmits an identity signal that is digital with a counter that has been incremented. This blocks hackers from replaying previously accepted transmissions and gaining access to a house or vehicle.

RKE systems can fail or break despite their superior design. One of the most frequent problems is a lack response when you attempt to lock or unlock remotely your vehicle. The two most frequent causes of this issue are a programming problem or a dead battery in your car.
