equivalent) making sure to install the new battery with
the positive (+) side facing up.
5. Install the back half of the transmitter case.
6. Reinstall the two screws on the back of the trans-

board in the transmitter when replacing the bat-
tery.
! Replacing lost transmitters
If you lose a transmitter or want to purchase additional
transmitters (up to four can be programmed), you
should re-program all of your transmitters for security
reasons. It is recommended that you have your dealer
program all of your transmitters into your system. ! Programming the transmitters
The keyless entry system is equipped with a special
code learning feature that allows you to program new
transmitter codes into the system or to delete old
ones. The system can learn up to four unique transmit-
ter codes. The four transmitter codes may be the
same or different.1

3. Press and release any button on the transmitter
that you wish to program into the system. The horn will
sound two times to indicate that the transmitter has
been programmed.
Any additional transmitters can also be programmed
at this time. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for an additional
transmitter.
To exit the programming mode:
1. After all of your transmitters are programmed, re-
move the key from the ignition switch.
The horn will sound three times to indicate that the system has exited the programming mode.
2. Make sure that the keyless entry system properly
operates by operating each transmitter. !
Deleting old transmitter codes
The control unit of the keyless entry system has four
memory locations to store transmitter codes, giving it
the ability to operate with up to four transmitters. When
you lose a transmitter, the lost transmitter’s code re-
mains in the memory. For security reasons, lost trans-
mitter codes should be deleted from the memory.
To delete old transmitter codes, program four trans-
mitter codes into the system. If you have only one cur-
rent transmitter, program it four times. If you have two
current transmitters, program each one twice. If you
have three current transmitters, program two of them
once and the third one twice. This process will leave
only current transmitter codes in the system’s memo-ry.
NOTE
Make sure no one else is operating their keyless
entry system within range of your vehicle when
programming transmitters. If someone else were
to operate their remote transmitter while you are
programming your transmitters, it is possible that
their transmitter code will be programmed into
your system, allowing them unauthorized access
