110To erase all of the personal entry codes and remote
entry transmitters programmed to a vehicle:
1. Enter the original permanent code.
2. Press 1/2 within five seconds of Step 1.
3. Press and hold 1/2 for two (2) seconds.
All of the vehicle doors will lock and then
unlock to confirm erasure.
Do not set a code that presents the numbers in
sequential order, such as 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, 9/0.
Studies show that people who idly press the buttons
usually press a sequential pattern. Also, do not
select a code that uses the same button five times.
Thieves can easily figure out these types of codes.
