Ignition Key Registration
NOTE:
This procedure MUST BE performed ONLY when NEW transponder key Electronic Control Unit (ECU) is installed. A new transponder key ECU is in automatic registration mode and up to 2 master key identification codes and one sub-key identification code may be registered in transponder key ECU at one time. In automatic registration mode, the last ignition key to be registered becomes a sub-key.
NOTE:
Master key is a Black-colored ignition key that opens all locks. A sub-key is a Gray-colored ignition key that will not open the trunk.
- Check that battery is connected and there is no ignition key in the ignition lock cylinder. Check that SECURITY indicator light is flashing. SECURITY indicator light is displayed as a vehicle icon near the clock at the center of instrument panel.
- To register the first master key, insert master key into ignition lock cylinder. SECURITY indicator light should turn off for one second and then turn back on. Remove master key from ignition lock cylinder.
- To register the second master key, insert master key into ignition lock cylinder. SECURITY indicator light should turn off for one second and then turn back on. Remove master key from ignition lock cylinder.
- To register the sub-key, insert sub-key into ignition lock cylinder. SECURITY indicator light should turn off for one second and then turn back on. Remove sub-key from ignition lock cylinder. Ensure SECURITY indicator light starts flashing.
- If the registration was complete and system is operating normally when ignition key was removed from ignition lock cylinder, the SECURITY indicator light should flash. If ignition key registration was not completed with transponder key Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in automatic registration mode, a code 2-1 will be displayed by SECURITY indicator light. See Fig 1. When inserting an already registered ignition key, a code 2-2 will be displayed by SECURITY indicator light. See Fig 1.
- To complete automatic registration mode after more than one key has been registered, insert master key into ignition lock cylinder and turn ignition switch to from LOCK to ON position 5 times within 10 seconds without removing master key from ignition lock cylinder.
