This is covered in the owner's manual. Did the previous owner give you the manual?

For those of you who do not know how to do it,this would also be a good time to learn how to disable your alarm and put it in the transport mode in case you want to trailer it.It's easy and covered in your manual.

I had the dealer do it. I don't believe it is hard, but you do need an additional part . . . .Total charge was near two hundred dollars, which I am sure is too much, but I had it.
I just didn't enjoy the security system. I wanted to be more "old school" and so went that route.

TSM: Turn Signal Module
ECU: Your on board computer for engine control...
All they do is replace your TSSM with a TSM and then flash the TSM to match your ECU.
You can usually find TSMs for cheap as hell on ebay but the dealer has to install it due to the flashing process.
