Programming a Spare Integrated Keyhead Transmitter
Note:A maximum of eight coded keys can be programmed to your
vehicle; all eight can be integrated keyhead transmitters.
You can program your own integrated keyhead transmitter or standard
SecuriLock® coded keys to your vehicle. This procedure will program
both the engine immobilizer keycode and the remote entry portion of the
remote control to your vehicle.
Only use integrated keyhead transmitters or standard SecuriLock® keys.
You must have two previously programmed coded keys and the new
unprogrammed key readily accessible. See your authorized dealer to have
the spare key programmed if two previously programmed coded keys are
not available.
Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition.
2. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition off and remove the first coded key from the ignition.
4. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of turning the ignition off,
insert the second previously coded key into the ignition.
5. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least
three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
6. Turn the ignition off and remove the second previously programmed
coded key from the ignition.
7. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of turning the ignition off
and removing the previously programmed coded key, insert the new
unprogrammed key into the ignition.
8. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least
six seconds.
9. Remove the newly programmed coded key from the ignition.
If the key has been successfully programmed it will start the engine
and operate the remote entry system (if the new key is an integrated
keyhead transmitter).
If it was not programmed successfully, wait 10 seconds and repeat
Steps 1 through 8. If you are still unsuccessful, bring your vehicle to
your authorized dealer.
Wait 20 seconds and then repeat this procedure from Step 1 to program
an additional key.
