Programming Procedures
DCryptor Programming Procedure
This procedure programs the module's key bypass using the DCryptor technology.
- Press and hold the programming button on the module. Connect the 6-PIN Main harness (White connector). Observe the Blue, Red, Yellow, and Blue & Red LEDs illuminating alternatively.
- Release the programming button when the LEDs turn solid BLUE and RED. If LEDs do not show solid BLUE and RED, disconnect the 6-Pin connector and restart from Step 1.
- Insert the required remaining connectors.
- Press and release the programming button six times (6x). The RED and BLUE LEDs will flash 5 times per second.
- Start the engine: Press the brake pedal, then press the Push-to-Start button once. The RED LED will flash rapidly 10 times, indicating key bypass programming is complete. Wait for the BLUE LED to flash rapidly.
- Wait for the YELLOW and RED LEDs to alternate.
- Stop the engine by pressing the Push-to-Start button once.
- Disconnect all connectors except the 6-Pin (Main-Harness) or the 4-pin Data-Link connector.
- Use the FLASH LINK UPDATER or FLASH LINK MOBILE tool to visit the DCryptor menu. (Parts required, not included).
- After DCryptor programming is completed, return to the vehicle and reconnect the 6-Pin (Main-Harness) or 4-pin (Data-Link) connector, followed by all other remaining connectors.
The module is now programmed.
