  5. Turn the ignition switch to the ACC position and then to the LOCK position three times (again, do this within 3 seconds.)

  7. Within 20 seconds, press the LOCK button on the remote you are Programming. Verify that the door locks cycle once.
  8. Within 20 seconds, press the UNLOCK button on the remote.
  9. Verify that the door locks cycle once to confirm that the system has accepted the remote's code.
  10. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for each remote to be added.
  11. Remove the key from the ignition.
