Entering Programming Mode
To program features, your vehicle must be in the
programming mode. Follow these steps:
1. The content theft
-deterrent system (if equipped)
must be disarmed. See ªContent Theft
-Deterrent
Systemº in this section.
2. Remove the BCM PRGRM fuse from the instrument
panel fuse block, located to the right of the glove
box. (See ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index.)
3. Close the driver's door.
4. Turn the ignition key towards you to ACCESSORY.
5. Count the number of chimes you hear. You will hear
two to four chimes depending on the features your
vehicle is equipped with. Refer to the chart
shown previously.
You can now program your choices.
To exit the programming mode, follow the steps listed
under ªExiting Programming Modeº later in
this section.
Delayed Illumination and Exit Lighting
With delayed illumination, the interior lamps will stay
on for about 25 seconds after all the doors and the
liftgate are closed.
With exit lighting, the interior lamps will come on and
stay on for about 25 seconds whenever you remove the
key from the ignition.
To customize these features to your preference,
see ªProgrammable Modesº following.
Programmable Modes
Your vehicle can be programmed to one of the
following modes.
Mode 1: Both Features Off (The interior lamps will turn
on or off at the same instant that a door is opened
or closed.)
Mode 2: Delayed Illumination Only (The interior lamps
will stay on for about 25 seconds after all the doors and
liftgate are closed, or until you lock the doors.)
Mode 3: Exit Lighting Only (The interior lamps will
come on whenever you remove the key from the ignition
and stay on for about 25 seconds, or until you lock
the doors.)

2-24 Exiting Programming Mode
To exit programming mode, just turn the key from
ACCESSORY to OFF and put the BCM PRGRM fuse
back into the instrument panel fuse block.
After programming a feature, you can exit the
programming mode at anytime. Also, if your vehicle is
equipped with the content
-theft deterrent system,
remember to arm the system before exiting.
Sliding Door
To open the sliding door from outside the vehicle, pull
the handle out and then pull the door toward the rear. If
you slide the door all the way back, the door will rest in
a detent position. The door must overcome this detent
when closing.
To move the door forward, you must first pull the door
past the open detent position.
If your vehicle has a sliding door on the driver's side,
the door is designed to open only a little if the fuel door
is open. If this ever happens, don't try to force the
sliding door. Just close the driver's side sliding door.
Then when the fuel filler door is closed, the driver's side
sliding door can be opened normally.

Resetting the Power Sliding Door
The power sliding door may operate incorrectly or not at
all because of the following conditions:

A low voltage or dead battery,

disconnecting the battery, or

if the IGN 1, B/U LAMP, RADIO or
PWR SEAT/PSD fuse is removed or blown.
See ªFuse Panelº in the Index for more information
about your fuse panel.
If any of these conditions occur, the power sliding door
will need to be reset. To do this, follow the directions
listed here. It will be easier if you read through them
once before beginning this procedure.
1. Check to be sure the power sliding door is unlocked
and securely closed.
2. Turn the ignition key to OFF.
3. Turn off the power sliding door override on
the switchbank.
4. Remove the RADIO fuse from the underhood fuse
and relay center. Leave it out for 30 seconds.5. Reinstall the fuse and wait 10 seconds.
6. Turn on the power sliding door override on
the switchbank.
7. Push either of the power door buttons to open the
power sliding door.
8. Open the door.
9. Wait five seconds and close the door by pushing
either power door button.
10. Wait five seconds and repeat Steps 7 through 9.
If the door does not rest in the fully open position
after repeating Step 7, repeat Steps 7 through 9 again.
If the door still does not operate correctly, see your
dealer for service.
Canceling the Sliding Door Security Lock
1. Unlock the sliding door and open the door from
the outside.
2. Move the security lock lever all the way down.
The sliding door lock will now work normally.

2-37
When trying to start the vehicle if the engine does not
start and the SECURITY message comes on, the key
may have a damaged transponder. Turn the ignition off
and try again.
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 ªFuses and
Circuit Breakersº 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 or a locksmith who can service the
PASS
-Key III to have a new key made.
It is possible for the Pass
-Key III decoder to learn 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. If all
the currently programmed keys are lost or do not
operate, you must see your dealer or a locksmith who
can service PASS
-Key III to have keys made and
programmed to the system.
See your dealer or a locksmith who can service
PASS
-Key III to get a new key blank that is a cut
exactly as the ignition key that operates the system.To program the new key:
1. Insert the ignition key 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 message will turn off once the key
has been programmed. It may not be apparent that
the SECURITY message 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 message
comes on and stays on, you will be able to restart your
engine if you turn it off. Your PASS
-Key III system,
however, is not working properly and must be serviced
by your dealer. Your vehicle is not protected by the
PASS
-Key III system at this time.
If you lose or damage a PASS
-Key III key, see your
dealer or a locksmith who can service PASS
-Key III to
have a new key made.

2-56 Turn Signal and Lane Change Indicator
The turn signal has two upward (for right) and two
downward (for left) positions. These positions allow you
to signal a turn or a lane change.
To signal a turn, move the lever all the way up or down.
When the turn is finished, the lever will return automatically.
An arrow on the instrument
panel cluster will flash in
the direction of the turn or
lane change.
To signal a lane change, just raise or lower the lever
until the arrow starts to flash. Hold it there until you
complete your lane change. The lever will return by
itself when you release it.
As you signal a turn or a lane change, if the arrow
flashes faster than normal, a signal bulb may be burned
out and other drivers won't see your turn signal.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows don't go on at all when you
signal a turn, check for burned
-out bulbs and check the
fuse (see ªFuses and Circuit Breakersº in the Index).If you have a trailer towing option with added wiring for
the trailer lamps, the signal indicator will flash at a
normal rate even if a turn signal bulb is burned out.
Check the front and rear turn signal lamps regularly to
make sure they are working.
Turn Signal on Chime
If either turn signal is left on for more than 3/4 mile
(1.2 km), a chime will sound to let the driver know to
turn it off.
If you need to leave the signal on for more than 3/4 mile
(1.2 km), turn off the signal and then turn it back on.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from high to low beam, or low
to high, simply pull the turn signal lever all the way
toward you. Then release it.
When the high beams are
on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
will also be on.

2-81
To use your air inflator system, the engine must be
running or the ignition key in ACCESSORY. Attach the
appropriate nozzle adapter, if required, to the end of the
hose that has the pressure gage. Then attach that end of
the hose to the object you wish to inflate. Remove the
protective cap covering the outlet. Attach the other end
of the hose to the outlet. Press the ON switch.If the air inflator system does not turn on, the fuse may
be blown or installed incorrectly. See ªFuses and Circuit
Breakersº in the Index or see your dealer for service.
Your air inflator will automatically shut off after about
10 minutes. To reset, press the ON switch again.
Don't run your air inflator for longer than 30 minutes at
one time. If you do, you may damage the system. After
30 minutes, wait at least 10 minutes before restarting the
air inflator.
To turn off the inflator, press OFF and detach the hose,
first from the inflated object, then from the outlet.
Replace the protective cap. Place the inflator kit tools in
the pouch, and store in the glove box.
To replace the cover, line up the tabs at the back of the
cover and put it in place. Push down the tab to secure
the cover.
