NOTE:
The anti-theft security access procedure is used to obtain Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) security access. PATS security access must be granted to erase ignition key codes, enable/disable unlimited key mode, set unlimited transponder key ID, reset the Instrument Cluster (IC) or Transmission Control Module (TCM) parameters and enable/disable the spare key programming switch (PID SPAREKEY). The anti-theft security access procedure invokes a 10-minute time delay prior to granting security access during which the scan tool must remain connected to the vehicle. Once security access is granted, a security access command menu is displayed which offers various command options.
