CAUTION:

Obtain vehicle's unique Personal Identification Number (PIN) code assigned to original SKIM module from vehicle owner or Chrysler's customer center before performing the following procedure:
- Turn ignition switch to ON position and ensure vehicle transmission is in Park or Neutral. Using scan tool, select THEFT ALARM, SKIM, MISCELLANEOUS, then select SKIM MODULE REPLACEMENT and follow scan tool prompts.
- Program unique 4-digit PIN code into SKIM. Select COUNTRY CODE and program correct country code into SKIM's memory (U.S.).
