Ram 1500/2500/3500: Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
The RKE system allows you to lock or unlock all doors, tailgate, and the RamBox (if equipped) as well as activate the Panic Alarm from distances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using a hand-held radio transmitter with integrated key. The transmitter does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system. Press and release the LOCK button on the RKE transmitter to lock all doors, the tailgate and the RamBox (if equipped).
The turn signal lights will flash and the horn will chirp to acknowledge the signal.
NOTE: Inserting the Key Fob with RKE transmitter into the ignition switch disables the system from responding to any button presses from that RKE transmitter. Driving at speeds 5 mph (8 km/h) and above disables the system from responding to all RKE transmitter buttons for all RKE transmitters.
