Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Transmitter Programming
Turn ignition switch to OFF position (all power door locks will lock and unlock). Use a screwdriver to jumper 2 terminals in programming connector. See Fig 1 . Press any button on one transmitter. Door locks, fuel door and trunk lid release should activate in about 2 seconds. First transmitter is now programmed. Repeat this step using other transmitter. If only one transmitter is being used, disconnect jumper wire or screwdriver.
