If the engine still does not start, and the key appears to
be undamaged, try another ignition key. At this time,
you may also want to check the fuse (see "Fuses and
Circuit Breakers" in the Index). If the engine still does
not start with the other key, your vehicle needs service.
If your vehicle does start, the first key may be faulty.
See your dealer who can service the PASS
have a new key made.
It is possible for the PASS
the transponder value of a new or replacement key.
Up to 10 additional keys may be programmed for
the vehicle. This procedure is for learning additional
keys only.

only a GM dealer can service PASS
new keys made. To program additional keys you will
need two current driver's keys (black in color). You add
a step to the following procedure. After Step 2 repeat
Steps 1 and 2 with the second current driver's key.

To program the new key, do the following:
1. Insert the current driver's key (black in color) in the
ignition and start the engine. If the engine will not
start, see your dealer for service.
2. After the engine has started, turn the key to OFF, and
remove the key.
3. Insert the key to be programmed and turn it to RUN
within 10 seconds of removing the previous key.
4. The SECURITY telltale light will turn off once the
key has been programmed. It may not be apparent
that the SECURITY light went on due to how
quickly the key is programmed.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 if additional keys are to
be programmed.
If you are ever driving and the SECURITY light comes
on and stays on, you will be able to restart your engine
if you turn it off. Your PASS
is not working properly and must be serviced by your
dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by the PASS
III system at this time.
