Anti-Theft Security Access
ANTI-THEFT SECURITY ACCESSWorldwide Diagnostic System (WDS):
Special Tool(s)
NOTE: The security access procedure is used to obtain passive anti-theft system (PATS) security access. PATS security access must be granted to erase ignition keys, enable/disable unlimited key mode, set unlimited transponder key ID and enable/disable the spare key programming switch (PID SPARE_KEY). The security access procedure invokes an inherent 10-minute time delay prior to granting security access during which the diagnostic tool must remain connected to the vehicle. Once security access has been granted, a security access command menu is displayed which offers various command options.
1. From the diagnostic tool, enter PCM. Select SECURITY ACCESS. This procedure takes 10 minutes to carry out, during which the ignition switch must be in the ON position and the diagnostic tool must be connected to the vehicle.
2. After the 10-minute security access procedure is completed, a new menu is displayed with command options. Select only those functions required before exiting out of this menu. Once exited out of this menu, the security access procedure must be repeated again to carry out additional commands.
