Transmitter Programming

  1. Turn ignition off. Connect jumper wire between program connector terminals. See Fig 1 . Within 2 seconds, door locks will lock and unlock. Rear trunk lid release will cycle and horn chirp will sound to indicate module is ready to reprogram.
  2. Press and hold LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously on one transmitter. Door locks will lock and unlock. Rear luggage compartment release will cycle and horn chirp will sound to indicate first transmitter had reprogrammed successfully. Repeat this step if programming other transmitters (up to 4 total). Remove jumper wire after finishing programming procedure. Verify proper operation of each transmitter.
