if the instrument panel PWR/HEATED SEAT PSD
fuse or the underhood fuse 5, 27 or 29 are removed
or blown.
See ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index for more
information about your fuse panel.
If any of these conditions occur, the power sliding door
will need to be reset. If your vehicle has the optional
dual power sliding doors, both doors will have to be
reset. To do this, follow the directions listed here. It will
be easier if you read through them once before
beginning this procedure.

and securely closed.
2. Turn the ignition key to OFF.
3. If on, turn off the power sliding door override
switch off.4. Remove the fuse 29 from the underhood fuse block.

6. Turn the power sliding door override switch on.
7. Press either of the power door lock switches to open
the power sliding door.
8. Open the door.
9. Wait five seconds and close the door by pressing
either power door lock switch.
10. Wait five seconds and repeat Steps 7 through 9.
If the door does not rest in the fully open position
after repeating Step 7, repeat Steps 7 through 9 again.
If the door still does not operate correctly, see your
dealer for service.

If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to be
undamaged, try another ignition key. At this time, you
may also want to check the instrument panel PASS KEY
fuse. If the engine still does not start with the other key,
your vehicle needs service. If your vehicle does start, the
first key may be faulty. See your dealer or a locksmith
who can service the PASS
-Key III to have a new key
made. See ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index.
It is possible for the PASS
-Key III decoder to learn
the transponder value of a new or replacement key.
Up to 10 additional keys may be programmed for the
vehicle. This procedure is for learning additional keys
only. If all the currently programmed keys are lost or
do not operate, you must see your dealer or a locksmith
who can service PASS
-Key III to have keys made
and programmed to the system.
See your dealer or a locksmith who can service
PASS
-Key III to get a new key blank that is a cut
exactly as the ignition key that operates the system.
Canadian Owners: If you lose or damage your keys,
only a GM dealer can service PASS
-Key III to have new
keys made. To program additional keys you will need
two current driver's keys (black in color). You must add
a step to the following procedure. After Step 3 repeat
Steps 1 through 3 with the second current driver's key.
Then continue with Step 4.To program the new key:
1. Verify the new key has PK3 stamped on it.
2. Insert the ignition key in the ignition and start
the engine. If the engine will not start see your dealer
for service.
3. After the engine has started, turn the key to OFF and
remove the key.
4. Insert the key to be programmed and turn it to RUN
within 10 seconds of removing the previous key.
5. The security message will turn off once the key has
been programmed. It may not be apparent that the
security message went on due to how quickly the key
is programmed.
6. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 if additional keys are
to be programmed.
If you are ever driving and the security message comes
on and stays on, you will be able to restart your engine
if you turn it off. Your PASS
-Key III system, however,
is not working properly and must be serviced by
your dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by the
PASS
-Key III system at this time.
If you lose or damage a PASS
-Key III key, see your
dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS
-Key III to
have a new key made.

If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows don't go on at all when you
signal a turn, check for burned
-out bulbs and check the
fuse. See ªBulb Replacementº and ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index.
If you have a trailer towing option with added wiring
for the trailer lamps, the signal indicator will flash at
a normal rate even if a turn signal bulb is burned out.

6-64 Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers
and fusible thermal links.
Look at the silver
-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don't have
a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage or use one of the spare fuses in the underhood
fuse block. Just pick some feature of your vehicle that
you can get along without
-- like the radio or cigarette
lighter
-- and use its fuse, if it is the right amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the
instrument panel fuse block and the underhood
fuse block.Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The instrument panel fuse
block is located to the right
of the glove box on the end
of the instrument panel.
Pull the door open to access the instrument panel
fuse block.
