NOTE: To program (or reprogram) a keyless entry remote transmitter into the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) module, perform the following steps.
1. Turn the key to the run or accessory position and short the two terminals of the program connector, a two-pin connector located below the driver's side of the instrument panel at the base of the steering column. All doors should lock and then unlock.
2. Press any button on each keyless entry remote transmitter in turn. All doors should lock and then unlock. If the door locks do not respond, press the button again (up to three times maximum with the same keyless entry remote transmitter). If the door locks still fail to respond, go to Pinpoint Test A. A: All Door Locks Are Inoperative
3. Repeat Step 2 to program additional keyless entry remote transmitters into the RKE module (up to four keyless entry remote transmitters maximum).
4. Turn the key off.
5. Remove the short from the program connector. All doors should lock and then unlock.
6. Verify that the keyless entry remote transmitters have been successfully programmed by pressing the LOCK or UNLOCK button on each one, and observing that the system responds by locking and unlocking the doors.
