Default Security Pass Code Reset '08

I bought my '08 from my wife's great uncle. I've tried to enter the default security pass code via the turn signal switches. It always tells me that it is in correct. Is this something a dealer can reset?

Try the following:

With FOB present, cycle ignition switch IGNITION-OFF-IGNITION-OFF-IGNITION
Press left turn signal twice. (Turn Signals Flash 3 times.)
Press right turn signal once. (Current PIN should appear in the odometer.)

From there you can change the PIN or just see if it matches the one you're using. If you just see five dashes then no PIN is set. Refer to your owner's manual for instructions.

Worked perfectly. The code had been changed from the factory set codes in my owners manual.
