I had some battery cable issues and now keyless entry won't work and also I have no tire pressures that are registered In my info center. I believe the module is behind plastic panel of seats. Anyone out there had any issues like this or experience in this area.
thanks

That is a common problem mostly with 08 models, the modules don't have a hard flash and loose of battery power will cause the problems you are experiencing . A long period of no battery causes the module to loose it's programing. The fix unfortunately, is a trip to the dealer and have the module reflashed, one consolation is that the new flash is hard and it will not loose the new program again. There a TSB out for that problem as I recall if you can find it you may be able to get them to do it for no charge as it was a problem, but I believe only for the 2008 model years.

This bulletin is being revised to update the Important statement to reflect the new direction to no longer contact TCSC. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 08-03-16-001A (Section 03 - Suspension).


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Condition
Some customers may comment that the key fobs are inoperative or that the TPM system is showing dashes as the reading for all four tires.

Technicians may find DTCs C0775, C0569 and B3105 set simultaneously in the RCDLR module.
In addition, the technicians may find Tire Pressure Monitoring sensors are unable to be programmed to the vehicle by adding or releasing pressure to the tire while the vehicles in the TPM learn mode.

Cause
These conditions may be caused by the following:

• The RCDLR may lose its transmitter and tire pressure monitoring data from its memory if a low voltage condition occurs on the vehicle.

• The ability for TPM learning by adding or releasing pressure to the tire has been disabled in the RCDLR.

Correction
Reprogram the RCDLR with an updated software calibration to address both issues listed above. This new service calibration is available on TIS2WEB using Service Programming System (SPS). As always, make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software.

Important: If the Tech 2® could not establish communication with the RCDLR AND the programming event ended with error, attempt to reprogram in Service Programming System (SPS) by selecting "Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (TSB 08-03-16-001) with E4399 error -- Pass Thru Only".

Once the RCDLR module has been reflashed with the latest software and calibrations, the following may also be necessary:

• Relearn all keyless entry transmitters.

• Reconfigure the tire pressure placards and the tire type.

• Relearn the tire pressure sensors.

Refer to SI for the procedures to relearn transmitters, placard and tire type configuration and tire pressure sensor learn.

I have a 2008 and had this exact same issue. Took the tab to the dealer and they did fix it but charged me for it even though I argued it was their defect. Since then no issues on occasional time that the battery has died so it’s worth having done. Maybe your dealer is more customer service oriented than my local dealer and won’t charge you for it
