Programming Ignition Keys To SKIM

  1. Connect DRBIII® to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located below instrument panel, near steering column. See Figure. Place transmission in Park or Neutral. Turn the ignition on, with the engine off.
  2. With DRBIII®, select THEFT ALARM, SKIM THEN MISC.
  3. Select PROGRAM IGNITION KEYS.
  4. NOTE: A maximum of 8 keys can be learned by each SKIM at one time. Once a key is learned to SKIM, the key cannot be transferred to another vehicle.
  5. Enter secured access mode by entering the vehicle 4-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN). Follow DRBIII® prompts. If ignition key programming is unsuccessful, the DRBIII® will display one of the following messages:
    • Programming Not Attempted -  The DRBIII® attempts to read the programmed key status and there are no keys programmed in the SKIM memory.
    • Programming Key Failed-  The SKIM is unable to program a key because it has a faulty transponder or the key is programmed to another vehicle.
    • 8 Keys Already Learned, Programming Not Done -  SKIM transponder identification memory is full. Obtain up to 8 keys to be programmed. Using the DRBIII®, erase all ignition keys by selecting MISC and ERASE ALL CURRENT IGN KEYS, then return to step  2.
    • Learned Key In Ignition -  Ignition key transponder identification is currently programmed in SKIM memory.
