Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter

NOTE: All remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitters MUST be programmed at the same time.

To program (or reprogram) RKE transmitters into Vehicle Security Module (VSM), perform the following steps:

  1. Turn ignition switch to OFF, then to RUN positions 8 times within 10 seconds, ending in RUN position. If VSM has successfully entered program mode, it will lock and unlock all doors.
  2. Press any button on remote keyless entry transmitter, and doors will lock, and unlock to confirm remote transmitter has been programmed. Repeat procedure with additional remote transmitters.
  3. If door locks do not respond for any remote keyless entry transmitter, wait for several seconds, press button again.
  4. Turn ignition off, or wait 5 minutes after step  1, to exit program mode. If a remote transmitter has been programmed (or reprogrammed), the VSM will lock and unlock all doors one last time.
