30-Minute Relearn Procedure

Use this procedure after replacing any of the following components:

• The PASS-Key III plus keys
• The theft deterrent module (TDM)
• The powertrain control module (PCM)

IMPORTANT:
• This procedure is not available on vehicles equipped with EXPORT configured TDMs.
• When performing the 30-minute relearn procedure, all previously learned keys will be erased from the TDM memory. Additional keys may be learned after performing the relearn procedure.
• When replacing a TDM with a GM SPO Replacement Part, ensure the procedure to setup a new TDM is performed prior to the 30-Minute Relearn Procedure.
