Programing Sentry keys:
1. Dealer-Programming additional Sentry Keys (requires ONE original key)
In situations where only one key is available, keys must be programmed by the dealer via the Secured Access Method.
The Secured Access method applies to all vehicles. This method requires
the use of a DRBIIIt scan tool and will also require that you have
access to the unique four-digit PIN code that was assigned to the
original SKIM. The PIN code must be used to enter the Secured Access
Mode in the SKIM. This PIN number may be obtained from the vehicle
owner, from the original vehicle invoice, or from the DaimlerChrysler
Customer Center. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information for
the proper Secured
Access method programming procedures.
2. Self-Programming additional Sentry Keys (requires TWO original keys)
Detailed steps:
(1) The first step of course is to acquire a blank
transponder key. These can be purchased from your Jeep dealer or bought
online. Online prices are usually around $20.00. You can then take the
blank key along with one of your original keys to any key maker or
locksmith and have it cut to match, just like with any other key.
(2) Insert one of the two valid Sentry Keys into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch to the On position.
(3) After the ignition switch has been in the On
position for longer than three seconds, but no more than fifteen
seconds, cycle the ignition switch back to the Off position. Replace
the first valid Sentry Key in the ignition switch lock cylinder with
the second valid Sentry Key and turn the ignition switch back to the On
position. The second valid Sentry Key must be inserted in the lock
cylinder within fifteen seconds of removing the first valid key.
(4) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
3, the SKIS indicator in the instrument cluster will start to flash and
a single audible chime tone will sound to indicate that the system has
entered the Customer Learn programming mode.
(5) Within sixty seconds of entering the Customer
Learn programming mode, turn the ignition switch to the Off position,
replace the valid Sentry Key with a blank Sentry Key transponder, and
turn the ignition switch back to the On position.
(6) About ten seconds after the completion of Step
5, a single audible chime tone will sound and the SKIS indicator will
stop flashing, stay on solid for three seconds, then turn off to
indicate that the blank Sentry Key has been successfully programmed.
The SKIS will immediately exit the Customer Learn programming mode and
the vehicle may now be started using the newly programmed valid Sentry
Key.
Each of these steps must be repeated and completed
in their entirety for each additional Sentry Key that is to be
programmed. If the above steps are not completed in the given sequence,
or within the allotted time, the SKIS will exit the Customer Learn
programming mode and the programming will be unsuccessful. The SKIS
will also automatically exit the Customer Learn programming mode if it
sees a non-blank Sentry Key transponder when it should see a blank, if
it has already programmed eight (8) valid Sentry Keys, or if the
ignition switch is turned to the Off position for more than about fifty
seconds.
NOTE: If an attempt is made to start the vehicle
while in the Customer Learn mode (SKIS indicator flashing), the SKIS
will respond as though the vehicle were being started with an invalid
key. In other words, the engine will stall after about two seconds of
operation
NOTE: Once a Sentry Key has been programmed as a
valid key to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed as a valid key for use
on any other vehicle.

If you have replaced battery in remote,press unlock button 6 times,then check operation.
Unlock all of the Jeep
Grand Cherokee's doors and open the driver's side door. Keeping the door open, lock it using the manual lock on the door itself.
Put the manual key into the ignition and switch it to the "On" or "Run" position, whichever applicable, without starting the engine.

Point the remote at the receiver (located by the little bulb on the car ceiling) and hold down the "Lock" button for up to 5 seconds.
When the driver's side door unlocks, you know the remote has been programmed correctly. If you are only programming one remote, jump to the next step. If not, manually re-lock the driver's side door and repeat steps 5 and 6 using each remote you would like to program and then continue.
Turn the key to the "Off" position and turn the ignition on immediately. This must be done within 20 seconds of programming the last remote. You're finished!

There is no onboard programming procedure for this vehicle. This vehicle requires special equipment be connected to the vehicle to program the keyless remote.
