Customer Learn Method
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
The following steps must be completed in proper order. Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) will automatically exit CUSTOMER LEARN programming mode if time allotted is exceeded, or if 8 keys have already been programmed.
NOTE:
Once a key has been programmed, it cannot be programmed for another vehicle.
- Obtain 2 programmed sentry keys from vehicle owner. Ensure new sentry key blank is cut before proceeding. Insert first valid sentry key into ignition switch. Turn ignition on.
- After 3 seconds, but no more than 15 seconds, turn ignition off. Remove key. Insert second valid sentry key. Turn ignition on.
- About 10 seconds after completion of previous step, Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) Light Emitting Diode (LED) indicator will flash and a single chime will sound. This indicates system has entered customer learn programming mode.
- Turn ignition off. Remove second valid sentry key. Insert blank sentry key within 60 seconds. Turn ignition on. After about 10 seconds, a single chime will sound. VTSS LED indicator will stop flashing and stay on for about 3 seconds, then turn off to indicate sentry key has been successfully programmed.
- SKIS will return to normal operation immediately following exit from customer learn programming mode. Repeat procedure for each additional sentry key to be programmed.
