There are 4 methods for programming key fobs. Up to 4 key fobs may be
programmed to the remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR). Each
programmed key fob is given a position of #1-#4 in the RCDLR memory.
Method 1 - Key Fob Quick Learn This
procedure will add key fobs. Fobs will be numbered in sequence based on
when they are programmed; if 2 fobs are currently programmed to the
RCDLR, a fob programmed using this method will be numbered as Fob 3.
This procedure requires that you have a known good key fob, a
replacement key fob, and the vehicles mechanical key.
Important:
This procedure is not available when the maximum number of fobs (4) have
been programmed. If 4 key fobs are programmed to this RCDLR and this
method is attempted, the driver information center (DIC) will display
MAX FOBS LEARNED and the programming procedure will exit. Method 4 must
be used in this instance.
The vehicle must be OFF.
Place a known key fob within the interior of the vehicle.
Insert
the vehicle key in the driver door lock cylinder located in the driver
door handle and cycle the key 5 times within 5 seconds.
The DIC will display a message: READY FOR FOB X (X = fob 2, 3, or 4).
Place the replacement key fob in the console fob pocket with the buttons facing forward.
A beep will occur and the DIC will display: READY FOR FOB X (X = fob 3 or 4) or MAX FOBS LEARNED.
If
programming additional key fobs, repeat steps 5 and 6, or press the
OFF/ACC portion of the ignition switch to exit programming mode.
Operate the active portion of each key fob in order to finalize the programming sequence and verify correct system operation.
Method 2 - Key Fob Slot Programming
This
procedure will add or replace a key fob. Method 2 allows you to choose
which location (slot) the unprogrammed fob will be learned to. If you
are replacing a key fob, this method will erase the previously known key
fob programmed to that particular slot. This procedure requires that
you have a known good key fob, a replacement key fob, the vehicle
mechanical key, and a scan tool.
Important: This procedure is not
available when the maximum number of fobs (4) have been programmed. If 4
key fobs are programmed to this RCDLR and this method is attempted, the
DIC will display MAX FOBS LEARNED and the programming procedure will
exit. Method 4 must be used in this instance.
The vehicle must be OFF.
Place a known key fob within the interior of the vehicle.
Install a scan tool.
Use the scan tool, to access the following:
• Vehicle Control Systems
• Computer/Integrating Systems
• Module Replacement/Setup
• RCDLR
• Program Key Fobs
Insert
the vehicle key in the driver door lock cylinder located in the driver
door handle and cycle the key 5 times within 5 seconds.
Select Fob X (X = 1, 2, 3, or 4) on the scan tool. This will be the slot you wish to program to.
Place
the replacement key fob in the console pocket with the buttons facing
forward. A beep will occur indicating programming completion. The
previously known fob is now erased.
If programming additional key fobs, repeat steps 4-8, or press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition switch to exit programming.
Remove the scan tool.
Operate the active portion of each key fob in order to finalize the programming sequence and verify correct system operation.
Method 3 - Key Fob Auto Learn
This
procedure will first erase all known key fobs. The procedure will then
program a single or multiple key fobs. Method 3 is a series of three
10-minute key cycles, for a total of 30 minutes. This procedure requires
that you have a replacement key fob and the vehicle mechanical key.
Important:
All previously programmed key fobs will be erased upon completion of
the 30-minute programming procedure. The order in which the key fobs are
programmed will determine its numbering position within the RCDLR
memory. The first key fob programmed will be key fob #1, and the second
key fob programmed will be key fob #2. The number stamped on the key fob
case is for reference only: #2 can be programmed as #1.
Do not place
any known good key fobs in the vicinity of the vehicle when programming
with Method 3. If the RCDLR recognizes a known good key fob during
Method 3 programming, the programming mode will resort to Method 1.
The vehicle must be OFF.
Place the replacement key fob in the console pocket with the buttons facing forward.
Insert
the vehicle key in the driver door lock cylinder located in the driver
door handle and cycle the key 5 times within 5 seconds.
The DIC will display a message: OFF/ACC TO LEARN.
Press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition button.
The DIC will display a message: WAIT 10 MINUTES, then it will count down from 10 to 0, one minute at a time.
When the counter reaches 0, DIC will display OFF/ACC TO LEARN.
Repeat steps 5-7 two more times, for a total of 30 minutes.
The DIC will display a message: OFF/ACC TO LEARN.
Press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition button.
A
beep will occur and the DIC will display: READY FOR FOB 1. At this time
all previously known key fobs have been erased. When fob 1 is
programmed a beep will be heard and the DIC will display a message:
READY FOR FOB 2.
Additional key fobs can be programmed by taking fob
1 out of the pocket and inserting fob 2. If desired, up to 4 fobs can
be programmed. Once 4 fobs have been learned, the DIC will display a
message: MAX FOBS LEARNED, and automatically exit the program mode.
If learning less than 4 key fobs, press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition button to exit the program mode.
Operate the active portion of each key fob in order to finalize the programming sequence and verify correct system operation.
Method 4 - Service Programming System Fob Programming
This
procedure is a 10-minute relearn procedure using the Techline Terminal
with SPS software. Once the 10-minute timer has expired, the fobs can be
programmed similar to Method 2 using slot programming. A scan tool,
Techline Terminal, and a replacement key fob are required to perform
this procedure.
Place the vehicle in the Vehicle On, Engine Off mode.
Connect a scan tool to the vehicle.
Insure that all power consuming devices are turned OFF on the vehicle.
With a scan tool, select Request Info under Service Programming System and follow the scan tool on-screen instructions.
Disconnect
the scan tool from the vehicle and connect the scan tool to a Techline
Terminal with the current Service Programming System (SPS) software.
Turn the vehicle OFF.
On
the Techline Terminal, select Service Programming System and follow the
Techline Terminal on-screen instructions. Ensure the correct
programming procedure is selected based on component being replaced or
programmed. See Important above.
Disconnect the scan tool from the Techline Terminal and re-connect the scan tool to the vehicle.
With a scan tool, select Program ECU under Service Programming System.
At this point the scan tool must remain connected for the duration of the 10 minute relearn procedure.
When the 10 minute relearn procedure has completed, use the scan tool to access the following:
• Vehicle Control Systems
• Computer/Integrating Systems
• Module Replacement/Setup
• RCDLR
• Program Key Fobs
Select Fob X (X = 1, 2, 3, or 4) on the scan tool. This will be the slot you wish to program to.
Place
the replacement key fob in the console pocket with the buttons facing
forward. A beep will occur indicating programming completion. The
previously known fob is now erased.
If programming additional key
fobs, repeat steps 12-13, or press the OFF/ACC portion of the ignition
switch to exit programming.
Remove the scan tool.
Operate the active portion of each key fob in order to finalize the programming sequence and verify correct system operation.
