Key Programming Using Diagnostic Equipment
NOTE:
To enter PATS security access if no programmed IA keys are available, start a vehicle session using a tear tag or PCM part number. PATS security access can still be granted even with the ignition off.
- Insert the unprogrammed IA key into the backup transceiver slot.
- From the scan tool, enter TOOLBOX. Select Body>Security>PATS Functions and follow the IDS on-screen instructions to enter PATS security access.
- From the scan tool menu select "Program additional ignition key" and follow the IDS on-screen instructions.
-
NOTE: The engine does not start until there are at least 2 keys programmed.
The engine should now start with the new IA key.
- If it is desired to program additional IA key, insert the additional IA key into the backup transceiver slot and repeat Step 3 for the additional key that needs to be programmed.
- A total of 4 IA keys can be programmed
