General Procedures

Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS) (418-F224)
NOTE:
NOTE:This procedure is used when a customer needs ignition keys programmed into the system. This procedure is also useful when programmed ignition key(s) have been lost or when the ignition lock cylinder has been replaced or when it is necessary to erase a key(s) from the passive anti-theft alarm system (PATS) memory.
NOTE:
NOTE:During this procedure it will be necessary to utilize the Anti-Theft System (PATS) Security Access Procedure. PATS security access must be granted to erase or program ignition keys. The anti-theft security access procedure requires access to the GSEVIN database in order to obtain the coded security access.
NOTE:
NOTE:Two PATS encoded keys with the correct mechanical cut must be available to carry out this procedure. One or both of them may be the original keys.
NOTE:
NOTE:If the remaining keys are with the customer and are not available with the vehicle, instruct the customer that the remaining keys are no longer valid to start the vehicle. If the customer wants to have these keys to be valid for the vehicle, the keys must be programmed using WDS.
