Key Programming - Without Programmed Keys
NOTE:
This procedure is used when a customer needs keys programmed into Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) and does not have 2 programmed ignition keys available, or when 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).
