2004 DODGE TOWN AND COUNTRY steering

(6) Rotate the SKREEM upwards and then to the
side away from the steering column to slide the
SKREEM antenna ring from around the ignition
switch lock cylinder housing.
(7) Remove the SKREEM from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Slip the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module
(SKREEM) antenna ring around the ignition switch
lock cylinder housing. Rotate the SKREEM down-
wards and then towards the steering column.
(2) Install the one screws securing the SKREEM to
the steering column.
(3) Connect the steering column wire harness to
the SKREEM.
(4) Install the steering column upper and lower
shrouds (Refer to 19 - STEERING/COLUMN/UPPER
SHROUD - INSTALLATION) and (Refer to 19 -
STEERING/COLUMN/LOWER SHROUD - INSTAL-
LATION).
(5) Install the Steering Column Opening Cover
(Refer to 23 - BODY/INSTRUMENT PANEL/STEER-
ING COLUMN OPENING COVER - INSTALLA-
TION)
(6) Connect the battery negative cable.
TRANSPONDER KEY
DESCRIPTION
The Sentry Key Remote Entry System (SKREES)
uses a transponder chip that is integral to each igni-
tion key to communicate with the Sentry Key Remote
Entry Module (SKREEM). Ignition keys are supplied
with the vehicle when it is shipped from the factory.
The transponder chip is undermolded within the
head of the key.
OPERATION
Each Sentry Key has a unique transponder identi-
fication code permanently programmed into it by the
manufacturer. Likewise, the Sentry Key Remote
Entry Module (SKREEM) has a unique9Secret Key9
code programmed into it by the manufacturer as
well. When a Sentry Key is programmed into the
memory of the SKREEM, the SKREEM stores the
transponder identification code from the Sentry Key,
and the Sentry Key learns the9Secret Key9code from
the SKREEM. Once the Sentry Key learns the
9Secret Key9code of the SKREEM, it is also perma-
nently programmed into the transponder's memory.
Therefore, blank keys for the Sentry Key Remote
Entry System (SKREES) must be programmed by
the SKREEM in addition to being cut to match the
mechanical coding of the ignition lock cylinder. Refer
to Electrical, Vehicle Theft Security, TransponderKey, Standard Procedure - Transponder Program-
ming.
The Sentry Key's transponder is within the range
of the SKREEM's transceiver antenna ring when it is
inserted into the ignition lock cylinder. When the
ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the
SKREEM communicates with the Sentry Key via a
radio frequency (RF) signal. The SKREEM deter-
mines if a valid key is present based on the informa-
tion it receives from the Sentry Key. If a valid key is
detected, that fact is communicated to the PCM via
the PCI bus and the vehicle is allowed to continue
running. If an invalid key is received by the PCM or
no status at all is communicated, the vehicle will
stall after two (2) seconds of running. The indicator
light will be flashing at this point. The Sentry Key's
transponder can not be repaired. If it is faulty or
damaged, it must be replaced.
Common communication problems:
²Two transponder keys too close together.
²Speed Pass too close to transponder key.
Solid indicator that there is a system failure.
²Loss of PCM communication.
²Failed antenna circuit.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TRANSPONDER
PROGRAMMING
USING A DRBIIITSCAN TOOL
All Sentry Keys included with the vehicle are pre-
programmed to work with the Sentry Key Remote
Entry System (SKREES) when it is shipped from the
factory. The Sentry Key Remote Entry Module
(SKREEM) can be programmed to recognize up to a
total of eight Sentry Keys. When programming a
blank Sentry Key transponder, the key must first be
cut to match the ignition lock cylinder of the vehicle
for which it will be used. The vehicle's four digit PIN
code will be required to complete this task since you
will need it to enter the Secured Access Mode in the
SKREEM. The following steps must be completed
using a DRBIIItscan tool:
(1) Insert the blank key into the ignition and turn
it to the RUN position.
(2) Using a DRBIIItscan tool, select9Theft
Alarm,99SKREEM,99Miscellaneous,9and then9Pro-
gram New Key.9
(3) Enter the four digit PIN code using the
DRBIIItscan tool. When programming is completed,
the SKREEM will exit Secured Access Mode and the
DRBIIItscan tool will display the results of your
attempt to program the key. One of five distinct
results may be displayed. All five are listed below:
²(Programming Successful(is displayed if the
Sentry Key programming is successful.

DESCRIPTION - CIRCUIT FUNCTIONS
All circuits in the diagrams use an alpha/numeric
code to identify the wire and it's function. To identify
which circuit code applies to a system, refer to the
Circuit Identification Code Chart. This chart shows
the main circuits only and does not show the second-
ary codes that may apply to some models.

DESCRIPTION - SECTION IDENTIFICATION AND
INFORMATION
The wiring diagrams are grouped into individual
sections. If a component is most likely found in a par-
ticular group, it will be shown complete (all wires,
connectors, and pins) within that group. For exam-
ple, the Auto Shutdown Relay is most likely to be
found in Group 30, so it is shown there complete. It
can, however, be shown partially in another group if
it contains some associated wiring.
Splice diagrams in Section 8W-70 show the entire
splice and provide references to other sections the
splices serves. Section 8W-70 only contains splice dia-
grams that are not shown in their entirety some-
where else in the wiring diagrams.
Section 8W-80 shows each connector and the cir-
cuits involved with that connector. The connectors
are identified using the name/number on the dia-
gram pages.
