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.
Remote Transmitter Reprogramming
To reprogram all transmitters, cycle ignition switch from OFF to ON position 8 times within 10 seconds, ending in ON position or OFF to START position 4 times in 10 seconds, ending in ON position. After doors lock and unlock, press any button on all remote transmitters (up to limit of 4). With each button press on remote transmitter, door locks should cycle (lock/unlock) to confirm programming. Once completed, turn ignition switch to OFF position. Door locks should cycle (lock/unlock) one last time to confirm completion of programming. All transmitters must be reprogrammed at the same time.
