Key Programming - Erase All Key Codes and Program Two Keys

NOTE: Two PATS keys with the correct mechanical cut must be available to carry out this procedure.
NOTE: This procedure erases all MyKey® features on all of the keys that are programmed to the vehicle. All of the keys then operate as normal (admin) keys with no restrictions.

  4. Turn the key to OFF and disconnect the scan tool (the key does not need to be removed from the ignition switch at this time).
