Keyless Entry Transmitter Programming (Export - Including Canada)
Transmitter Programming (Export Including Canada)
Important: Do not operate or program the key fobs in the vicinity of other vehicles that are in the keyless entry program mode. This will prevent the programming of the key fobs to the incorrect vehicle.
There is 1 method for programming key fobs. Up to 4 key fobs may be programmed to the remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR). Each programmed key fob is given a position of #1-#4 in the RCDLR memory.
All procedures require the use of a scan tool. If a scan tool is not available, refer to the vehicle owners manual for fob programming procedures.
Method 1 - Adding or Replacing a Key Fob (Known Key Fob Available)
This procedure will add or replace key fobs. This procedure requires that you have a known key fob, a replacement key fob, and a scan tool.
Important: This procedure is not available when the maximum number of fobs (4) have been programmed. If 4 key fobs are programmed to this RCDLR and this method is attempted, the driver information center (DIC) will display MAX FOBS LEARNED and the programming procedure will exit. Method 2 or 3 must be used in this instance.
1. Place two known fobs in the cup holder.
2. Turn the vehicle in RUN, place the transmission in PARK (A/T) or REVERSE (M/T) and shut the vehicle OFF.
3. Using the scan tool access the following:
* Vehicle Control Systems
* Computer/Integrating Systems
* Module Setup
* Remote Control Door Lock Receiver
* Program Key Fobs
4. Select the fob position you wish to program:
Important: Selecting Invalidate All Fobs will erase any known fobs and require all fobs to be relearned to the vehicle.
* Invalidate All Fobs
* Program Fob 1
* Program Fob 2
* Program Fob 3
* Program Fob 4
5. With the fob position selected, press the PROGRAM button on the scan tool. The DIC will display: READY FOR FOB X (X = fob 1, 2, 3 or 4, depending on the selected position)
6. Place the replacement key fob in the glove box fob pocket with the buttons facing right.
7. A beep will occur indicating the fob has been programmed. If the Invalidate All Fobs selection was chosen the DIC will continue to the next available key fob slot until all slots are programmed or OFF/ACC is pressed. If any other selection was chosen and additional fobs are needed to be programmed, repeat steps 3-5.
Important: Failure to press the UNLOCK button of each key fob will result in that fob being inoperative. Pressing the UNLOCK button finishes the programming sequence and is require to ensure transmitter operation.
8. Press the UNLOCK button of each key fob to finalize the programming and confirm system operation.
