Service Procedure
A. Program the RKE Transmitter using StarSCANNOTE:
Either StarSCAN or StarMOBILE can be used to perform this notification. If the programming for the RKE transmitter is aborted or interrupted, repeat the procedure.
1. Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5 volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the programming process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.
NOTE:
Use an accurate stand-alone voltmeter. The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently accurate. Voltages outside of the specified range will cause the programming to be unsuccessful. If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage.
2. Connect the CH9410 StarSCAN ethernet cable to the StarSCAN and the dealer's network drop.
3. Connect the CH9404 StarSCAN vehicle cable to the StarSCAN and the vehicle.
4. Insert the customers RKE transmitter into the Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) and place the ignition in the "RUN" position, then Power "ON" the StarSCAN.
5. With the StarSCAN on the "Home" screen, follow the procedure below:
a. Select "ECU View".
b. Select "WCM wireless control" in the list of modules.
c. Select "Misc Functions".
d. Highlight "Program Ignition Keys or Key FOBs," then select "Start".
e. Select "Next".

h. Select "Ok" once the PIN has been inserted.
i. Follow the screen prompts to complete the process.
NOTE:
After the first RKE transmitter has been programmed, follow the screen prompts to program the second RKE transmitter.
j. Select "Finish" after the second FOBIK has been programmed.
k. Select "Show Shortcuts".
l. Select "Home" to return to the "Home" screen.
6. Clear any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) as follows:
NOTE:
Due to the RKE transmitter programming procedure, DTC(s) may be set in other modules (TCM, ABS, BCM, MIC, WCM, etc.) within the vehicle, if so equipped. Some DTC's may cause the MIL to illuminate.
a. From the "Home" screen select "System View".
b. Select "All DTCs".
c. Select "Clear All Stored DTCs" if there are any DTCs shown on the list.
d. Select "Yes" to clear all stored DTC's.
7. Turn the ignition key to the "OFF" position. Remove the StarSCAN unit, StarSCAN cable, and battery charger from the vehicle.
8. Verify that both RKE transmitters start the vehicle and that the transmitter functions properly.
9. Close the hood.
10. The original RKE transmitters must be destroyed and scrapped. Do not return the original transmitters to the customer.
B. Reprogram the RKE Transmitter Using StarMOBILE
1. Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5 volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the flash process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.
NOTE:
Use an accurate stand alone voltmeter. The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently accurate. Voltages outside of the specified range will cause an unsuccessful flash. If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage.
2. Connect the StarMOBILE scan tool to the vehicle data link connector located under the steering column and turn the ignition key to the "RUN" position.
3. Power ON the StarMOBILE scan tool.
4. Connect the CH9410 StarMOBILE scan tool ethernet cable to the StarMOBILE and the dealer's network drop.
5. From the desktop, launch the "StarMOBILE Desktop Client" software.
6. Establish a connection with the StarMOBILE scan tool.
7. Select "ECU View".
8. Select "WCM Wireless Control".
9. Select "MISC. Functions".
10. Highlight "Program Ignition Keys or Key FOBs" and select "Start".
11. Select "Next".
12. Enter the Personal Identification Number (PIN) for that vehicle.
NOTE:
The PIN number can be obtained from the original selling invoice, DealerCONNECT > Parts > Key Codes, or contacting the District Manager.
13. Follow the screen prompts to complete the process.
NOTE:
After the first RKE transmitter has been programmed, follow the screen prompts to program the second RKE transmitter.
14. Select "Finish" after the second RKE transmitter has been programmed.
15. Select the home button icon.
16. Clear any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) as follows:
NOTE:
Due to the RKE transmitter programming procedure, DTC(s) may be set in other modules (PCM, TCM, ABS, BCM, MIC, WCM, etc.) within the vehicle, if so equipped. Some DTC's may cause the MIL to illuminate.
a. From the "Home" screen select "System View".
b. Select "All DTCs".
c. Select "Clear All Stored DTCs" if there are any DTCs shown on the list.
17. Turn the ignition key to the "OFF" position and remove the Star MOBILE unit, Star MOBILE cable, and battery charger from the vehicle.
