When the correct number of learned master keys are not available to perform adding keys procedure the 10 minute re-learn procedure or 30 minute re-learn procedure must be performed. Refer to
Programming Theft Deterrent System Components .
30-Minute Relearn Procedure
Use this procedure after replacing any of the following components:
?€¢
The PASS-Key III plus keys
?€¢
The theft deterrent module (TDM)
?€¢
The powertrain control module (PCM)
Important:
?€¢
This procedure is not available on vehicles equipped with EXPORT configured TDMs.
?€¢
When performing the 30-minute relearn procedure, all previously learned keys will be erased from the TDM memory. Additional keys may be learned after performing the relearn procedure.
?€¢
When replacing a TDM with a GM SPO Replacement Part, ensure the procedure to setup a new TDM is performed prior to the 30-Minute Relearn Procedure.
- With a master vehicle key, turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
- Observe the security indicator. After approximately 10 minutes, the telltale will turn OFF.
- Turn OFF the ignition, and wait 5 seconds.
- Repeat steps 1-3 two more times for a total of 3 cycles or 30 minutes.
Important: The vehicle learns the key transponder information and/or passwords on the ignition switch transition from OFF to RUN. You must turn the ignition OFF before attempting to start the vehicle.
- With a master vehicle key, start the vehicle. The vehicle has now learned the key transponder information and/or the ECM has now learned the fuel continue password.
- If additional keys are required to be learned, refer to Adding Keys .
- With a scan tool, clear any DTCs.
Adding Keys
Important:
?€¢
To initiate, this procedure requires that a learned master key be available.
?€¢
A total of 10 master keys or valet keys may be programmed to a single vehicle.
?€¢
This procedure adds keys only. The procedure does not erase previously learned keys.
?€¢
The keys to be learned must duplicate the mechanical cut of the current key.
?€¢
If more than one valet key is to be learned, immediately precede each valet key with a learned master key.
- With a previously learned master key, turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
- Turn OFF the ignition and remove the key.
- Within 10 seconds insert the key to be learned. Turn ON the ignition with the engine OFF. The vehicle has now learned the new key.
