Replacing Keys (Without SPS)

Note:
* This procedure will unlearn all previously learned keys. All keys that are to be programmed must be with the vehicle.
* This procedure will take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
* A total of 8 keys maybe be learned to a single vehicle.
* This procedure will only learn the vehicle key information. This procedure will not learn any immobilizer information between the body control module (BCM) and engine control module (ECM).
* This procedure may be used with or without existing learned keys being present. If existing keys are present, keep the keys away from the vicinity of the vehicle. Failure to keep learned keys away from the vehicle will result in the learn changing to the Adding Keys procedure.
* The keys to be learned must duplicate the mechanical cut of the current key.

1. Insert the mechanical key of the new transmitter into the key lock cylinder located on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within ten seconds. The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display Remote Learn Pending, Please Wait.
2. After ten minutes, the DIC will display Press Engine Start Button To Learn. Press the ignition mode switch. The DIC will again display Remote Learn Pending, Please Wait.
3. Repeat Step 2 two additional times, for a total of thirty minutes. All previously known keys have now been unlearned. Remaining keys can be relearned during the next steps. The DIC display will now display Ready For Remote # 1.

Note:
* The key pocket is located inside the center console storage area under the cupholder. The cupholder will need to be pulled out to access the key pocket.
* The key must be placed flat in the pocket with the buttons facing up and the keyring on the right. If a large keyring prevents the key from laying flat in the pocket, remove the keyring and place the key in the pocket. Failure to position the key flat in the pocket will result in an inability to program.

4. Place the new key into the key pocket.
5. Press the ignition mode switch. When the key is learned the DIC will indicate that it is ready to program the next key.
6. Remove the key from the key pocket and press the unlock button. To program additional transmitters, repeat Steps 4 through 6.
7. When all additional transmitters are programmed, press and hold the ignition mode switch for 5 seconds to exit programming mode.

Replacing Keys (With SPS)

Note:
* This procedure will unlearn all previously learned keys. All keys that are to be programmed must be with the vehicle.
* This procedure may be used with or without existing learned keys being present.
* This procedure will take more than 15 minutes to complete.
* A total of 8 keys maybe be learned to a single vehicle.
* This procedure will only learn the vehicle key information. This procedure will not learn any immobilizer information between the body control module (BCM) and engine control module (ECM).
* If the battery voltage is low, charge the battery before continuing with the procedure.

1. Connect a scan tool to the vehicle and access SPS. Refer to Service Programming System (SPS) Service Programming System (SPS).
2. Ensure that all power consuming devices are turned OFF on the vehicle.
3. Select the SPS application and follow the on-screen instructions.
4. Select Reprogram ECU.
5. Select IMMO Immobilizer Learn - Setup.
6. Select the Program Transponder or Remote Key (Delete) function.

Note:
* At multiple times during the learn procedure, SPS will instruct you to turn the ignition to the run position. Make sure the vehicle is actually in the run mode before continuing on the SPS terminal. If the igniting is not in the run mode, the learn procedure will fail.
* The transmitter slot is located inside the upper instrument panel storage compartment. The rubber mat lining the bottom of the compartment needs to be removed to access the slot.

7. Follow the on-screen instructions.
8. After programming all keys, Programming Complete, is displayed.
9. Press and hold the ignition mode switch for 15 seconds.
10. Press the lock and unlock button on each transmitter that was programmed. This will awaken each transmitter and allow passive and active keyless entry functions to be established.
11. With a scan tool, clear any DTCs.
12. Verify each key is operating properly. Operate each of the keyless entry functions using the buttons on the transmitter and then start the vehicle. When verifying operation, make sure that no other keys are near the vehicle.
