Replacing lost remote entry transmitters

If you would like to have your remote entry transmitter reprogrammed
because you lost one, or would like to buy additional remote entry
transmitters, you can either reprogram them yourself, or take all
remote entry transmitters to your authorized dealer for
reprogramming.

How to reprogram your remote entry transmitters

You must have all remote entry transmitters (maximum of four)
available before beginning this procedure.
To reprogram the remote entry
transmitters:
1. Ensure the vehicle is electronically unlocked.
2. Put the key in the ignition.
3. Cycle eight times rapidly (within 10 seconds) between the 1 (LOCK)
position and 3 (RUN). Note: The eighth turn must end in the 3 (RUN)
position.
4. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that the programming
mode has been activated.
5. Within 20 seconds press any button on the remote entry transmitter to
be programmed. Note: If more than 20 seconds have passed you will
need to start the procedure over again.
6. The doors will lock, then unlock, to confirm that each remote entry
transmitter has been programmed.
7. Repeat Step 5 to program each additional remote entry transmitter.
Note: The first remote transmitter programmed corresponds to Driver 1;
the second, Driver 2.
8. Turn the ignition to the 1 (LOCK) position after you have finished
programming all of the remote entry transmitters. Note: If any one of
the transmitters is not reprogrammed, it will be erased.
