Alarm Module: Service and RepairPasslock Reprogramming Auto Learn Conditions
CONDITIONS
IMPORTANT VCM/PCM
: If a new Vehicle/powertrain Control Module () is being installed for the first the manufacturing enable bit will be setand the auto learn procedure may not be necessary.
The following procedure allows for anyone to reprogram the Passlock TM module learned data code with any tools, other than the scan tool, whenany of the following parts are replaced:^
The Passlock TM module
^ The passlock TM sensor
^ The VCM/PCM
The Passlock TM module will set the DTC B3031 module in the learn mode when entering the reprogramming procedure.
STEPS
IMPORTANT DTCs
: Erase the passlock TM related Diagnostic Trouble Codes () that are stored in the VCM/PCM. Record, then refer theseDTCs to:^
For 4.3L engines, refer to A Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check in Engine Controls - 4.3L
^
For 5.0/5.7L engines, refer to A Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check in Engine Controls - 5.0/5.7L
^
For 6.5L engines, refer to A Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check in Engine Controls - 6.5L
^
For 7.4L engines, refer to A Powertrain On Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check in Engine Controls - 7.4L
The following is the Auto Learn Procedure:1. Insure the ignition key is in the ON position.2. Insure all passlock TM module and VCM/PCM DTCs have been cleared.3. Momentarily rotate the ignition key to the CRANK position (Do NOT start the vehicle), then release it to the RUN position (Do NOT key OFF
in the process).
4. Wait . Observe the SECURITY indicator. Refer to the following list for the appropriate responses:10 minutes
^
If the passlock TM sensor was replaced the SECURITY indicator will flash for the duration.10 minutes
^
If the passlock TM module was replaced, the SECURITY indicator will flash for a few seconds and then remain ON for the remainder ofthe duration.10 minutes
^
If the VCM/PCM was replaced with a new programmed VCM/PCM and connected to the vehicle for the first time, the vehicle will Startand this procedure may not be necessary.
^
If the replacement VCM/PCM was connected to any vehicle at any other time, even momentarily, the SECURITY indicator will flash for afew seconds and then remain ON for the duration.10 minutes
PCM. The new password is learned on the next ignition lock cylinder cycle from OFF to CRANK to ON (start attempt).
