Passive Anti-Theft System Spare Key Programming
1. Cycle the ignition switch from OFF to RUN using a programmed key. After anti-theft indicator is lit solid for 3 seconds, remove the key.NOTE:
- The steering column/ignition/lighting control module requires two keys to be programmed before it will allow the vehicle to be started. If a steering column/ignition/lighting control module is replaced, the technician must inform the customer to program any additional keys.
- The steering column/ignition/lighting control module has a maximum capacity of eight keys.
- The encoded vehicle keys must have the correct mechanical key cuts for the vehicle.
2. Within 15 seconds, insert a new encoded key into the ignition switch and turn the key to RUN or START.
3. If the steering column/ignition/lighting control module has accepted the key, the anti-theft indicator lamp will illuminate for three seconds and the steering column/ignition/lighting control module will allow the vehicle to be started.
4. Repeat the procedure if additional encoded keys are to be programmed.
5. If the programming was not successful, the anti-theft indicator lamp will:
1 Flash for 15 minutes if no encoded key is located and programmed. The key is either damaged or a non-encoded key. (Try an alternate encoded key.)
2 Flash for 15 minutes if the key code is received yet the engine is disabled. The key was not programmed successfully. Repeat procedure.
3 Flash for 15 minutes if the programming is unsuccessful, the new key was not inserted within 15 seconds, all eight key memory locations are full or the key is not an encoded key. Repeat the procedure if the key was not encoded or may not have been inserted within the 15-second window.
