Tools Required

In order to replace lost PASS-Key® II ignition keys, determine the required mechanical cut and the key code to start the vehicle from the vehicle invoice.

If the codes are not available, use the following steps in order to determine the code:

1. Determine the mechanical cut from the following sources:

•	The code sticker on the steering column (ignition) lock cylinder

•	The original key knock outs

•	If the mechanical cut can not be determined, replace the steering column (ignition) lock cylinder.

2. Using the J 35628-A , determine the correct key code using the following steps:

2.1.	Disconnect the ignition lock cylinder connector.

2.2.	Connect the J 35628-A to the harness side of the ignition lock cylinder connector.

2.3.	Turn on the J 35628-A .

2.4.	Place the key code switch in the number 1 position.

2.5.	Attempt to start the engine with the new mechanically cut key.

If the engine starts, the key code is 1.

2.6.	If the engine does not start, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.

2.7.	Wait at least 3 minutes.

2.8.	Place the J 35628-A key code switch in the next position (2, 3, 4, etc.).

2.9.	Attempt to start the engine.

If the engine starts, you have the correct key code. Proceed to the next step.

If the engine does not start, perform the previous 3 steps until the engine starts.

2.10.

Make a new ignition key using the correct key code and the mechanical cut.

2.11.

Ensure that the new key starts the engine.
