Sentry Key Immobilizer Module Programming

SECURED ACCESS mode is not required to check programmed status of key.

If PCM is replaced, unique secret key data must be transferred from Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) to Powertrain Control Module (PCM). This procedure requires SKIM to be placed in SECURED ACCESS mode using 4-digit PIN code.

If 3 attempts are made to enter secured access mode using an incorrect PIN, SECURED ACCESS mode will be locked out for one hour. To exit lock out mode, turn ignition switch to RUN position and leave there for one hour. Ensure all accessories are turned off. Monitor battery state and connect battery charger is necessary.

To program smart keys using "customer programming method" requires 2 valid smart keys. See appropriate ANTI-THEFT SYSTEMS article.
