Key Programming Switch State Control - Without Intelligent Access (IA)

SPECIAL TOOLS

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 Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC). For additional information, refer to KEY PROGRAMMING USING TWO PROGRAMMED KEYS - WITHOUT INTELLIGENT ACCESS (IA) . 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 IPC PID SPAREKEY.

NOTE: If the SPAREKEY PID reads ENABLE, up to 8 keys total can be programmed into the IPC using Key Programming Using Two Programmed Keys - Without Intelligent Access (IA+) . If the SPAREKEY PID reads DISABLE, the Key Programming Using Two Programmed Keys - Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT) procedure does not function. This switch is set to ENABLE when the vehicle is built. This PID does not affect the Key Programming Using Diagnostic Equipment - Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT), the Spare Key Programming - Unlimited Key Mode or the Spare Key Programming - Using Diagnostic Equipment procedures.

Insert a programmed Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) (or IKT) key into the ignition lock cylinder and turn the key from the OFF position to the ON position.
From the scan tool, enter TOOLBOX. Select BODY - SECURITY - PATS Functions and follow the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) on-screen instructions to ENTER SECURITY ACCESS. For additional information, refer to ANTI-THEFT SECURITY ACCESS - WITHOUT INTELLIGENT ACCESS (IA) .

NOTE: The default setting of the key programming switch on delivery of all new vehicles is ENABLE, when viewing the IPC PID SPAREKEY.

From the scan tool menu select: "Customer Spare Key Programming Enable" (or "Customer Spare Key Programming Disable") and follow the on-screen instructions.
- "Customer Spare Key Programming Enable" - the spare key programming procedure is accessible.
- "Customer Spare Key Programming Disable" - the spare key programming procedure is not accessible.
