Programming The Pcm

The Sentry Key Remote Entry System Secret Key is an ID code that is unique to each Sentry Key Remote Entry Module. This code is programmed and stored in the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module, the PCM, and the ignition key transponder chip(s). When replacing the PCM, it is necessary to program the secret key into the new PCM using the DRBIII(R) scan tool.

NOTE: If three attempts are made to enter secure access mode using an incorrect PIN, secured access mode will be locked out for one hour. To exit this lockout mode, turn the ignition switch to the ON position for one hour, then enter the correct PIN. (Ensure all accessories are turned off. Also monitor the battery state and connect a battery charger if necessary).
