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.
- The vehicle must be OFF.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

- 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.
- 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).
- 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.
- A beep will occur once the transmitter has been learned.
- 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
- 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
