Updating Secret Key Data

  1. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located below driver's side of instrument panel, near driver's side kick panel. See Figure .
  2. Go to THEFT ALARM, SKIM and then MISC menus on scan tool. Place the SKIM in SECURED ACCESS MODE by using the appropriate Personal Identification Number (PIN) for this vehicle. PIN may be obtained from the owner, vehicle's invoice or from the manufacturer. Select UPDATE SECRET KEY DATA. The data will be transferred from Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) to the PCM. This will enable the vehicle to start.
  3. If 3 attempts are made to enter the SECURED ACCESS MODE by using the incorrect Personal Identification Number (PIN), the SECURED ACCESS MODE will be locked out for one hour. To exit this locked out mode, leave ignition switch in ON position with all accessories turned off for one hour. It may be necessary to monitor battery voltage and connect a battery charger if necessary.
