PASS-Key(R) III Module Programming (Grand Prix)
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 67 other vehicles, including the 2000 Saturn SW2, 2000 Saturn SL2, 2000 Saturn SL1, 2000 Saturn SL, and 2000 Saturn SC2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- If replacing a theft deterrent module, the new module will learn keys immediately. However, the existing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) must learn the new fuel continue password when theft deterrent module is replaced.
- If replacing a PCM, after programming, these modules will learn incoming fuel continue password immediately upon receipt of a password message. Once a password message is received, and a password is learned, a learn procedure must be performed to change this password again. A PCM which has been previously installed in another vehicle will have learned the other vehicle's fuel continue password and will require a learn procedure after programming to learn current vehicle's password.
- When performing 30 minute relearn procedure, all previously learned keys will be erased from theft deterrent module's memory
- Additional keys may be learned immediately after 30 minute relearn procedure by inserting additional key to be learned and turning ignition switch to RUN position within 10 seconds of removing previously learned key.
- When performing 30 minute relearn procedure, be sure to use only a master key (Black) during procedure. If a valet key (Gray) is learned first, theft deterrent module will not allow additional keys to be learned.
NOTE:
PASS-Key(R) III system auto learn procedure must be performed if all keys are lost, or Powertrain Control Module (PCM), PASS-Key(R) III module, ignition lock cylinder, steering column assembly or ignition key are replaced. A password is communicated between PASS-Key(R) III module and PCM to provide engine operation. If PCM is replaced, the PCM must learn the password from the PASS-Key(R) III module.
