Good morning,

The reset or programming will require a scan tool by a shop or a dealer to reset the system so it will start.

You can also call a locksmith who will come to you to program the system as well.

Below is the procedure for this operation.

INITIALIZATION

The Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS) must be initialized following a Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module/SKIM or the Wireless Control Module/WCM) replacement. SKIS initialization requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool. Initialization will also require that you have access to the unique four-digit PIN code that was assigned to the original SKREEM. The PIN code must be used to enter the Secured Access Mode in the SKREEM. This PIN number may be obtained from the vehicle owner, from the original vehicle invoice, or from the Daimler Chrysler Customer Center. See: Alarm Module, (Vehicle Anti-theft) > Programming and Relearning > Programming the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM).

NOTE: If a Power-train Control Module (PCM) is replaced on a vehicle equipped with the Sentry Key Immobilizer System (SKIS), the unique Secret Key data must be transferred from the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module (SKREEM) (also known as the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module/SKIM or the Wireless Control Module/WCM) to the new PCM using the appropriate programming procedure. This procedure also requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool and the unique four-digit PIN code to enter the Secured Access Mode in the SKREEM. Refer to the appropriate service and diagnostic information for the proper PCM replacement procedure.
