REQUIREMENTS FOR USING ANY LEARN PROCEDURE
Perform the Learn Procedure if any of the following components have been replaced:
IMPORTANT: If any module is replaced, programming the module must be done prior to performing the Passlock Learn procedure.
^ The Passlock sensor
^ The Body Control Module (BCM)
^ The Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
^ The Vehicle Control Module (VCM)
PASSLOCK LEARN PROCEDURE - USING THE TECHLINE TERMINAL AND THE SCAN TOOL
Follow the instructions displayed on the Techline Terminal in Service Programming System (SPS) and the scan tool for this reprogramming procedure.
AUTO LEARN PASSLOCK PROCEDURE
1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position (NOT the CRANK position).
2. Turn the ignition switch to the CRANK position, then release to the RUN position (Do NOT start the vehicle).
3. Observe the security telltale for approximately 10 minutes.
4. After the ignition switch has been in the RUN position for approximately 10 minutes, the security telltale will transition from ON, then to OFF.
5. Repeat Steps #1 through #4 two more times.
6. After three consecutive cycles of the ignition switch are successfully completed, the vehicle will learn the new component on the next ignition cycle from the OFF position to the CRANK position, then to the RUN position. The vehicle will then start.
7. Clear the DTCs using a scan tool.
