Programming Instructions For CWTWB1U331 Remote Key Fob

Important Notes Before You Start:

  • This procedure requires a working ignition key
  • These instructions are applicable to vehicles that have separate remotes, which are not integrated with the ignition key
  • Ensure that all remotes expected to work for the vehicle are present. Any remotes that are not present during programming procedure will stop functioning until they are reprogrammed

    Programming Instructions - Procedure 1

    1. Close all the doors and make sure the key is out of the ignition.
    2. Insert the car key in the ignition
    3. Within 10 seconds, turn the car key to the "ON" position and then to the "OFF" position eight times. This procedure must end when the key is in "ON" position
    4. Door will lock and unlock indicating that the remote is in "learning mode"
    5. Press any button on the first remote within 20 seconds. The central locking system will cycle (lock/unlock) to confirm that the programming was successful
    6. If you have a second remote: press any button on the remote within 20 seconds. The central locking system will cycle (lock/unlock) to confirm that the programming was successful
    7. Turn the ignition to the "OFF" position. The locks will cycle again to indicate the end of the programming mode
    8. Test all remotes. If any of the remotes did not program, then repeat the procedure from step 1

    The activation process for the "learning mode", mentioned in the third step, may differ depending on the vehicle make/model/year. For example, instead of turning the ignition "ON" and "OFF" 8 times, it may be required to do so 5 times.

    When the "learning mode" is successfully activated, the central locking system will indicate it by locking and unlocking the doors quickly.
