Remote Control Door Lock Transmitter Programming (With ATH)

Remote Control Door Lock Transmitter Programming (With ATH)


Note

Do not operate or program the transmitters in the vicinity of other vehicles that are in the keyless entry program mode. This will prevent the programming of the transmitters to the incorrect vehicle.


There are 2 methods for programming keyless entry transmitters. Up to 8 transmitters may be programmed to the keyless entry control module and the body control module (BCM). Each programmed transmitter is given a position of #1-#8 in the keyless entry control module memory.

A "known" transmitter is one that has already been programmed to the vehicle. It is very important that the transmitter which is to be programmed is NOT placed into the console transmitter pocket until the information center correctly displays the transmitter number that you wish to program to.

Method 1 - Adding, Replacing, or Invalidating Transmitters (Known Transmitter Available)

This procedure will add or replace transmitters. This procedure requires that you have two known transmitters available, a replacement transmitter, and a scan tool.

Method 1 is also used for the initial programming of transmitters to a new replacement keyless entry control module and BCM. In this instance, the new BCM comes ready to learn the first transmitters introduced. Perform the learn procedure as outlined, with the exception that the new BCM does not require a known transmitter be placed within the interior of the vehicle.

Note

This procedure is not available when the maximum number of transmitters (8) have been programmed. Method 2 must be used in this instance.



1. The vehicle must be OFF.

2. Place two known transmitters and any new transmitter(s) to be programmed in the cupholder inside the vehicle. DO NOT PLACE ANY TRANSMITTERS IN THE CONSOLE POCKET AT THIS TIME.

3. With a scan tool, access Service Programming System (SPS) and follow the on-screen instructions. Refer to Service Programming System (SPS) . Select Program Transponder or Remote Key Fobs.

4. Select the transmitter position you wish to program:

Note

Selecting Invalidate All transmitters will erase any known transmitters and will cause the information center to prompt READY FOR transmitter 1, requiring all transmitters to be relearned to the vehicle.

5. After making the selection, a beep should be heard. If a beep is not heard or the information center displays USER ID NOT DETECTED, a valid transmitter was not found. Ensure that a valid transmitter has been placed in the cupholder and repeat step 4.

6. The scan tool will be displaying the current transmitter programming status. Press the PROGRAM soft key on the scan tool to continue with programming. The information center should respond by displaying: READY TO LEARN USER ID#X (X = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 depending on the selected position).

7. With the information center displaying the correct transmitter position that is to be programmed, place the new/replacement transmitter in the console pocket with the buttons facing forward.

8. A beep will occur once the transmitter has been learned.

9. Depending on the option chosen above, the information center may display a prompt asking that another transmitter be programmed. If programming additional transmitters, repeat steps 6 and 7, or press the EXIT soft key on the scan tool.

Note

Newly programmed transmitters will not function until program mode has been exited (information center is blank). This must be done prior to pressing the UNLOCK button in the next step


10. Press the UNLOCK button on each transmitter that was programmed to finalize the programming and confirm system operation. Method 2 - Service Programming System Transmitter Programming


Method 2 - Service Programming System Transmitter Programming

This procedure is a 10-minute relearn procedure using the tech tool programming system. Once the 10-minute timer has expired, the transmitters can be programmed to particular positions or all known transmitters can be erased. A scan tool and a replacement transmitter are required to perform this procedure.


1. Ignition ON, connect a scan tool to the vehicle.

2. Ensure that all power consuming devices are turned OFF on the vehicle.

3. With a scan tool, access Service Programming System (SPS) and follow the on-screen instructions. Refer to Service Programming System (SPS) . Select Program Transponder or Remote Key Fobs.

4. At this point the scan tool must remain connected for the duration of the 10 minute relearn procedure.

5. When the 10 minute relearn procedure has completed, turn the vehicle OFF.

6. With the scan tool still connected, access the following:

Program Key Fobs

7. Select the transmitter position you wish to program:

Note

Selecting Invalidate All transmitters will erase any known transmitters and will cause the information center to prompt READY FOR transmitter 1, requiring all transmitters to be relearned to the vehicle.
