Keyless Entry Transmitter: Testing and Inspection
Programming the transmitters
The keyless entry system is equipped with a special code learning feature that allows you to program new transmitter codes into the system or to delete old ones. The system can learn up to four unique transmitter codes. The four transmitter codes may be the same or different.
To enter the programming mode:
1. Press UNLOCK/DISARM button to disarm the security system. (if your vehicle is equipped with the optional security system.)
2. Open the driver's door and sit in the driver's seat.
3. Close the driver's door.
1) ON
2) LOCK
4. Place the ignition key into the ignition switch and cycle the switch from LOCK to ON ten times within 15 seconds. Be sure to stop at the LOCK position. The horn will sound once to indicate that you are in the transmitter programming mode.
NOTE
You must finish the next step (opening the driver's door) within 45 seconds of starting this procedures.
To program the transmitters:
1. Open the driver's door.
2. Close the driver's door.
1) Press any button.
3. Press and release any button on the transmitter that you wish to program into the system. The horn will sound twice to indicate that the transmitter has been programmed. Any additional transmitters can also be programmed at this time. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for an additional transmitter.
To exit the programming mode:
1. After all of your transmitters are programmed, remove the key from the ignition switch. The horn will sound three times to indicate that the
system has exited the programming mode.
2. Make sure that the keyless entry system properly operates by operating each transmitter.
Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry system has four memory locations to store transmitter codes, giving it the ability to operate with up to four transmitters. When you lose a transmitter, the lost transmitter's code remains in the memory. For security reasons, lost transmitter
codes should be deleted from the memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four transmitter codes into the system. If you have only one current transmitter, program it four times. If you have two current transmitters, program each one twice. If you have three current transmitters, program two of them once and the third one twice. This process will leave only current transmitter codes in the system's memory.
NOTE
Make sure no one else is operating their keyless entry system within range of your vehicle when programming transmitters. If someone else were to operate their remote transmitter while you are programming your transmitters, it is possible that their transmitter code will be programmed into your system, allowing them unauthorized access to your vehicle.
