Set Up Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: When replacing a theft deterrent control module with an GM SPO Replacement Part, module will learn keys immediately. Existing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) must learn new fuel continue password when theft deterrent control module is replaced. When replacing a PCM with a GM SPO Replacement Part, new PCM will learn incoming fuel continue password immediately after programming and upon receipt of a password message. Once a password message is received and a password is learned, perform learn procedure to change password again. A PCM which had been installed in another vehicle will have learned fuel continue password of another vehicle Theft Deterrent Control (TDC) module. Perform either 10-minute relearn procedure or 30-minute relearn procedure after programming to learn fuel continue password of current vehicle TDC modules. When performing either relearn procedure, all previously learned keys will be erased from theft deterrent control module memory. Additional keys may be learned immediately after first relearn procedure by inserting an additional key and turning ignition switch to RUN position within 10 seconds of removing a previously learned key. Use only a master key when performing first relearn procedure. If a valet key is used first, theft deterrent control module will not allow additional keys to be learned.
