MyKey® Programming

Program a MyKey™

NOTE: After a MyKey™ has been programmed, the remaining standard key(s) (the key[s] that is not programmed with the MyKey™ feature) is referred to as an "administrator key(s)" or "admin" key(s). There must always be at least one admin key.

NOTE: The MyKey™ feature can be cleared within the same key cycle that it was programmed. Follow the Clear MyKey™ procedure in this section to clear the key of any restricted MyKey™ status. If the key has been cycled, an admin key is required to clear the MyKey™ programming.

1. Insert a programmed Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) key into the ignition lock cylinder and turn the key from the OFF to the RUN position. This key must be the one that is being programmed to the MyKey™ restricted status.

2. Using the message center buttons:
   1. Press the SETUP button until PRESS RESET TO CREATE MYKEY appears in the message center display.
   2. Press and release the RESET button. HOLD RESET TO CONFIRM MYKEY is displayed.
   3. Press and hold the RESET button (for approximately 2 seconds) until MARK THIS KEY AS RESTRICTED is displayed.
   4. Wait until KEY RESTRICTED AT NEXT START is displayed, then release the RESET button.

3. The MyKey™ feature (standard restricted features) is successfully programmed into this particular key. Make sure it is labeled for easy identification. If you would like to customize the MyKey™ with the audio volume limited, maximum speed limit, speed alert chimes, and AdvanceTrac® on/off restrictions, refer to Configuring MyKey™ Optional Restricted Features in this section.
   • If the vehicle is equipped with an aftermarket remote start, also refer to Using MyKey™ with Aftermarket Remote Start Systems in this section.

   3. Press and release the RESET button to display the MyKey™ setup menus. The first programmable feature is: MYKEY MAX MPH OFF.
      • If you do not want to change the status of a feature that appears, press SETUP to accept the current setting and the message center displays the next feature.
      • If you want to change the status of the feature that is displayed, press RESET to turn a feature on/off (or toggle between choices). After the feature selection has been made, press and release SETUP to accept and the message center displays the next feature.
