ok heres the deal guys, i have an ign on my key chain, got an ign key in a box tucked in the dash for my remote start (reads the signal from the key to start truck) and then i went to the dealership to get a spare key made, they made me one but swtiched the code. so i had to put my spare key in the box tucked under the dash so remote start would work. i still only have 2 keys (one being for remote start) so i have a third key (old one from remote start with the other setting on it) that is usless, some one told me you can program them yourself? is this bs or does it have to be a dealership thing that they plug in to a machine?

 

If you have two keys that are programmed and you can insert into the ignition then you can do the third on your own.

If you want to add a key....
**You must have two original keys to perform this procedure. If you only have one key, you WILL have to take it to the dealer to get it programmed**

1. Insert and existing (working) key into the ignition cylinder.

2. Turn the ignition cylinder ON (RUN) and back to OFF. Ignition should stay on for at least ONE SECOND.

3. Remove the existing key and, within TEN seconds, insert a second working key and turn it to ON (RUN) and the back OFF. Ignition must be in ON for at least ONE second, but no more than TEN seconds. Remove the key.

4. Insert the new key before TWENTY seconds have elapsed and turn it to ON (RUN). Leave it the ON position for at least ONE second and turn back to OFF.

5. The security light will light up for THREE seconds to indicate that the new key has been successfully programmed.

6. To program additional keys, repeat steps 1 through 5

 

Ditto...I believe it is in your owners manual.

 

thanks guys
