KEY PROGRAMMING
Please make sure to read through the programming instructions completely before attempting.
You must have two (2) factory keys that can start the vehicle to perform this procedure. If you do not have two (2) factory keys for the vehicle currently, a trip to a dealership or an automotive locksmith will be required for the programming. If you are programming a remote and key combination unit, this procedure programs the remote portion at the same time as the key.
1. Enter the vehicle and close the driver’s door.
2. Using the first factory key, insert the key into the ignition and turn to the ON position as far as it will go without starting the vehicle and wait five (5) seconds, then turn it to the OFF position and remove the key.
3. Using a second factory key, insert the key into the ignition and turn to the ON position as far as it will go without starting and wait ten (10) seconds.
At this point the vehicle will emit an acoustic signal such as a chime or beep, as well as the immobilizer lamp (usually a circular red light on the dashboard display) will begin to flash to indicate that it has entered programming mode.
4. Turn the key to the OFF position and remove from the ignition.
5. Using a new key, insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the ON position as far as it will go without starting and wait ten (10) seconds.
At this point the vehicle will illuminate the immobilizer warning lamp for three (3) seconds, then the light will go out indicating that the key has been programmed successfully.
6. Once you have programmed your key, exit the programming mode by turning the key to the OFF position and remove the key.
7. Test the key to ensure it is functioning by starting the vehicle with it. If it did not program, restart the programming procedure from STEP 1.
8. To program additional keys, restart the programming procedure from STEP 1 and use the same two factory keys to program the remaining keys (you can program up to 8 keys total).
