Key Programming - Without Programmed Keys

NOTE: This procedure is used when a customer needs keys programmed into system and does not have 2 programmed ignition keys available, or when programmed ignition keys have been lost and/or ignition switch assembly has been replaced. This procedure will erase all programmed ignition keys from memory and prevent vehicle from starting until 2 keys have been programmed. Ignition keys must have correct mechanical key cut for vehicle and must be an encoded key. If additional key(s) are to be programmed, perform KEY PROGRAMMING - WITH PROGRAMMED KEYS  . If remaining keys are with customer and not with vehicle, instruct customer to see owner's manual to program spare key(s).
  1. Turn ignition switch from OFF to RUN position. With NGS/WDS tester connected to vehicle, enter function test menu. Select SECURITY ACCESS PROCEDURE. This procedure will take 10 minutes to perform. After security access procedure has been completed, a new menu will be displayed with command options. Select IGNITION KEY CODE ERASE.
  2. Turn ignition switch to OFF position and disconnect NGS/WDS tester. Insert first encoded ignition key into ignition lock cylinder. Turn ignition switch to RUN position for 3 seconds. Turn ignition switch to OFF position and remove first encoded key.
  3. Insert second encoded ignition key into ignition lock cylinder. Turn ignition switch to RUN position for 3 seconds. Turn ignition switch to OFF position and remove second encoded key. Both encoded ignition keys should now start vehicle.
