Programming Transmitter With DRB III

Scan Tool Data Link Connector:




Each individual secret code is registered inside the transmitter, and so it is necessary to register these codes with the receiver in the following cases.

^ When either the transmitter or receiver is replaced.
^ If a second transmitter is to be used.
^ If it appears that a problem is occurring because of faulty registration of a code.

A maximum of two different codes per transmitter can be stored in the memory area of the EEPROM, and up to two different transmitters can be used. When the codes for the first transmitter are registered, the previously-registered codes for both transmitters are cleared. Therefore, if you are using two transmitters or are adding a second transmitter, the codes for both transmitters must be registered at the same time.

Using the DRB-III Scan Tool

1. Connect the scan tool to the data link connector.
2. From the menu, select the DRB III Stand-alone Mode, then current year Diagnostics, then Body.
3. The screen will ask if this is a 1995-1999 model year Avenger/Sebring, select YES.
4. Follow the directions and prompts on the scan to screen as follows:

a. Close both doors, turn ignition key to OFF.
b. Turn ignition key to ACC.
c. Turn ignition to OFF, door locks will cycle once (in programming mode).
d. For each transmitter press any button 3 times in a row (within 10 seconds) to program code. When programming is complete, the door locks will cycle once.

NOTE: If a second transmitter requires programming, it must be programmed within 1 minute of the first transmitter programming. Press any button on the second transmitter 3 times (within 10 seconds) to program its code. When programming is complete, the door locks will cycle once.

5. The programming mode finishes after the following:

a. Programming of two transmitters are completed.
b. 60 seconds has passed since programming.
c. Scan tool is disconnected.
d. Ignition switch is turned ON.
