Keyless Entry Transmitter: Service and Repair

To program (or reprogram) keyless entry remote transmitters into the electronic door lock control processor, perform the following steps:

Note: The electronic door lock control processor erases all previous keyless entry remote transmitters from memory when the keyless entry remote transmitters are programmed or reprogrammed. The electronic door lock control processor can store up to four keyless entry remote transmitters in memory.

1. Turn ignition switch to RUN or ACC position and momentarily short the two terminals of the Program Connector (C4) (a two-pin connector taped to the wire assembly that can be reached behind glove compartment area.) Both doors should lock and then unlock. Remove the shorting pin.

Note: If door locks do not respond, press button again (up to three times maximum with the same keyless entry remote transmitter). If door locks still fail to respond, go to Pinpoint Test B.

2. Press any button on keyless entry remote transmitter. Both front doors should lock and then unlock.
3. Repeat Step 2 to program additional keyless entry remote transmitters into the electronic door lock control processor (up to four keyless entry remote transmitters maximum).
4. Turn ignition switch OFF. Both doors should lock and then unlock.
5. Check system operation.
