Introduction
This bulletin describes procedures used to program the three button remote transmitter to vehicles that are equipped with Wireless Door Lock Control. The following information applies only to the Factory Wireless Door Lock Control, not dealer or port installed options that also utilize remotes, such as VIP Keyless Entry/RS3000 or any aftermarket system.
Verification of Factory Wireless Door Lock Control can easily be performed by identifying the TDS status monitor, functioning remote, or model grade.
^ The Remote Transmitter has LOCK, UNLOCK, and PANIC features.
^ The TDS Status Monitor is located in the Tachometer.
NOTE:
When a new remote is programmed, all previous codes are erased. Because of this, all remotes should be entered during the same programming session, otherwise a remote may no longer be registered and operate the vehicle.
For customer Satisfaction, request that any existing remote be furnished when programming a new or replacement unit.

Programming Procedure
The PRG (Program) circuit of the Wireless Door Lock ECU is grounded to perform programming. This can be accomplished at a satellite location, the Mirror Control Switch (see illustration).
NOTE:
Up to two remotes can be programmed to operate each vehicle.
1. With the key OUT of the ignition switch, locate and disconnect the Mirror Control Switch from the vehicle harness.
2. Using a suitable jumper wire, connect terminal number 2, PRG (violet wire) to terminal number 10, GND (white/black) of the 10 cavity mirror control switch connector (illustrated). The vehicle confirms programming mode by requesting the power door locks to lock.
3. Depress, then release, any button on the remote. The vehicle confirms registration by requesting the power door locks to lock once again.
4. To program an additional remote, repeat step 3.
5. Disconnect the jumper wire to exit programming mode.
