Programming Ignition Keys Using Customer Learn Method

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 120 other vehicles, including the 2002 Saturn Vue, 2002 Saturn SL2, 2002 Saturn SL1, 2002 Saturn SL, and 2002 Saturn SC2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

To program ignition keys using customer learn method, 2 programmed valid ignition keys must be available. If 2 programmed valid ignition keys are not available, scan tool method must be used.

  1. Insert first valid ignition key into ignition lock cylinder. Turn ignition on for at least 3 seconds, but no more than 15 seconds. Turn ignition off and remove key.
  2. Within 15 seconds, insert second valid ignition key and turn ignition on. After 10 seconds a chime will sound and theft alarm indicator will flash. Turn ignition off and remove key.
  3. Within 60 seconds, insert new ignition key and turn ignition on. After 10 seconds a chime will sound and theft alarm indicator will stop flashing then turn on for 3 seconds and turn off. New key is now programmed to SKIM.
  4. Repeat this procedure for additional new keys. A maximum of 8 keys can be programmed to vehicle. Customer learn method will automatically exit if SKIM senses a non-blank ignition key when a blank ignition key should be sensed, if 8 keys are already programmed or ignition switch is turned off for more than 50 seconds.
