1. Program the new PCM.
2. Program the new SKREEM.
3. Replace all ignition keys and program them to the new SKREEM.Programming the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM)




The Sentry Key REmote Entry Module (SKREEM) is sometimes referred to as the Wireless Control Module (WCM). The SKREEM/WCM is the primary component of the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS). It is also the receiver for the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system. The SKREEM/WCM is located on the steering column, around the ignition lock cylinder housing and is concealed beneath the steering column shrouds. The molded black plastic housing for the SKREEM/WCM has an integral molded plastic halo-like antenna ring (3) that extends from one side. When the SKREEM/WCM is properly installed, the antenna ring is oriented around the ignition lock cylinder housing.





A single connector (1) is located next to the antenna ring on the SKREEM/WCM housing. A molded plastic mounting tab (2) on the SKREEM/WCM housing secures the unit to the steering column. The SKREEM/WCM is connected to the vehicle electrical system through the instrument panel wire harness.

The SKREEM/WCM cannot be adjusted or repaired. If faulty or damaged, the entire SKREEM unit must be replaced.
