Key Programming Switch State Control - With Intelligent Access (IA)

SPECIAL TOOLS

G06139350
Vehicle Communication Module (VCM) and Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) software with appropriate hardware, or equivalent scan tool
NOTE: The spare key programming switch is a programmable switch which provides the capability to enable/disable the normal customer spare key programming procedure detailed in the Owner's Literature. It must read ENABLE if more than 2 keys need to be programmed into the Remote Function Actuator (RFA) module using the Key Programming Using Two Programmed Keys - With Intelligent Access (IA+) in this information. This programmable switch is provided as a convenience for rental company fleets or other fleet purchasers who may not want the spare key programming procedure available to the vehicle driver.
NOTE: The spare key programming switch state can be viewed with the RFA module PID SPAREKEY.
NOTE: If the PID SPAREKEY reads ENABLE, up to 4 keys total can be programmed into the RFA module using Key Programming Using Two Programmed Keys - With Intelligent Access (IA) in this information. If the PID SPAREKEY reads DISABLE, the Key Programming Using Two Programmed Keys - With Intelligent Access (IA) procedure cannot function. This switch is set to ENABLE when the vehicle is built. This PID does not affect the Spare Key Programming - Using Diagnostic Equipment procedure.
