Adding OEM Passive Entry

[PotterJLUR]

This is a pretty big project but I finally got OEM passive entry added on dad's JL. I tried to make a decent video showing the general process if you were thinking about tackling the job yourself.

What exactly is "passive entry" and what is the purpose? I think I know but, not sure...

Passive entry is just the name of the system that allows you to keep the key in your pocket, walk up to the vehicle grab the door handle and the vehicle automatically unlocks. You can then get out of the vehicle and push the small button on the exterior door handle and lock the vehicle without ever touching your key fob. Some JL's and JT's were not optioned with it when built.
