new ignition key?????

Getting a new key for 01 park avenue. What do i need to do to program it? Parts guy at dealer said to take a key that starts the vehicle now and turn ignition on for 5 seconds then take it out and put in new key and do the same thing. will this work? any help appreciated

!. insert existing key into the ignition cyl.
2. turn ignition cyl. to ON and back off.
3. remove existing key and within 15 seconds insert new key and turn it to on.
4. the security light will light for 2 secs. to indicate sucess in programing the key.

If the new key does not start the car repeat above but turn exsiting key and start the car then remove etc.

Good luck.

Thanks :smile:
