Replacement Key Fobs - Dodge journey 2017 Owner's Manual

12 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
vehicle operation. Therefore, only key fobs that are pro-
grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the
vehicle. The system will not allow the engine to crank with
an invalid key fob.
After placing the ignition to the ON/RUN position, the
vehicle security light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb
check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates
that there is a problem with the system. In addition, if the light
begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone
tried to use an invalid key fob to start the engine. Either of
these conditions will result in the engine being shut off after
two seconds.
If the vehicle security light turns on during normal vehicle
operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 seconds), it
indicates that there is a fault in the system. Should this
occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an
authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
• Do not make modifications or alterations to the
immobilizer system. Modifications or alterations to
the immobilizer system may result in a loss of
security protection.
• The Sentry Key Immobilizer System is not compat-
ible with some aftermarket remote starting systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and loss of security protection.
All of the key fobs provided with your new vehicle have
been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
