How to Program a 2018 Jeep Wrangler Ignition Chip Key Transponder

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

For Programming with Two Programmed Remotes:
1. Place the two programmed remotes in the cupholder.
2. Remove the key lock cylinder cap on the driver door handle.
3. Insert the vehicle key of the new remote into the key lock cylinder on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The Driver Information Center (DIC) will display “READY FOR REMOTE #2, 3, 4, or 5.”
4. Place the new remote into the remote pocket inside the armrest storage area.
5. Press ENGINE START/STOP. When the remote is learned, the DIC will show that it is ready to program the next remote.
6. Remove the transmitter from the remote pocket and press unlock. To program additional remotes, repeat Steps 3–5. When all additional remotes are programmed, press and hold ENGINE START/STOP for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
7. Put the key back into the remote.

For Programming without Two Programmed Remotes:
If two currently programmed remotes are not available, follow this procedure to program up to eight transmitters. This feature is not available in Canada. This procedure will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. The vehicle must be off and all of the transmitters you wish to program must be with you.

1. Remove the key lock cylinder cap on the driver door handle.
2. Insert the vehicle key of the remote into the key lock cylinder on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The DIC displays “REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.”
3. Wait for 10 minutes until the DIC displays “PRESS ENGINE START BUTTON TO LEARN” and then press ENGINE START/STOP. The DIC display will again show “REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.”
4. Repeat Step 2 two additional times. After the third time, all previously known remotes will no longer work with the vehicle. Remaining remotes can be relearned during the next steps. The DIC display should now show “READY FOR REMOTE #1.”
5. Place the new remote into the remote pocket inside the armrest storage area.
6. Press ENGINE START/STOP. When the remote is learned, the DIC will show that it is ready to program the next remote.
7. Remove the remote from the remote pocket and press unlock. To program additional remotes, repeat Steps 4–6. When all additional remotes are programmed, press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
8. Put the key back into the remote.
