i dont think that thread exists anymore, but here is how to do it:

Lets see if this will be easier to follow.

1: Remove the ignition key and close all of the doors.
2: Open the drivers side door.
3: Insert the key into the ignition switch.
4: Repeat the following three times : Turn key to ON and then back to LOCK position.
5: Key should now be in lock position. Do not remove the key.
6: Repeat the following three times : Close and then open the drivers door.
7: Drivers door should now be open and all doors will lock and then unlock. (You are now in programming mode).
8: Push any button on the transmitter twice.
9: Doors will lock and then unlock indicating that transmitter is programed.
10: Repeat steps 8 and 9 for second and third transmitters.
11: Done.


NOTE: If you only have one transmitter then program it three times. If only two transmitters then program one of them twice. The
reason is that there are three empty "slots" in the door lock module for transmitters and all three need to be filled or may not
operate correctly all of the time.

There is a pinswitch but you are not seeing it . Closing and opening the door will do the same thing.

Those instructions are probably for the switch blade key fob...the credit card key for the keyless entry system apparently has to be programmed at the dealer. You're welcome to give it a try though...if you figure out how to program the credit card key let us know!

no idea if it is key card or switchblade key specific. the thread didn't say.
i hope the OP posts with his results so we can know for sure...

In a different thread here, one of the guys who works at a dealership (VRMS6 maybe?) said the credit card key had to go to the dealership. I have a spare one I need to get programmed...if it can be done then someone please let me know. If I get a chance I might just go out and try it and see what happens.
