Theft Deterrent Module

NOTE: New module can only be programmed once. Verify customer's code prior to programming to ensure key code is correct.
  1. With new theft deterrent module installed and connected, insert customer's key into ignition key lock cylinder and turn ignition switch to RUN position. New modules are programmed to store first pellet resistance detected. Start engine to verify system operation. If engine starts, go to next step. If engine does not start, repair anti-theft system as necessary. See appropriate ANTI-THEFT SYSTEMS article.
  2. Observe SECURITY indicator light. Indicator light should illuminate for about 5 seconds and turn off. This indicates module programming has been successfully completed. If indicator light flashes once per second and engine starts, module did not program. Check wiring, connectors, contacts to key resistance pellet, and key for defects or intermittents. Repair or replace as necessary and repeat programing procedure.
