I am trying to program an extra key fob that I have laying around and I cant get it to work. I follow the instructions in the manual but it is a no go, the ones that I am trying to program to my car are the factory GM ones that are from a previous vehicle. My car is a 02 Camaro SS. I also tried to program them to my 2000 silverado and it still didnt work. Batteries are good and everything so why wont they connect?

 

1. Close all the vehicle doors

2. Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder - do not turn ignition switch.

3. Press and hold the DOOR unlock switch (This is the switch on the door, NOT the remote).

4. While holding the DOOR lock switch in the unlock position, cycle the ignition ON, OFF, ON, OFF, ON, OFF.

5. Release the DOOR unlock switch. The doors will lock and unlock one time to confirm the program mode is activated.

6. Simultaneously press and hold the LOCK button and the UNLOCK button on one keyless remote for approximately 15 seconds, the doors will lock and unlock to confirm the programming of that transmitter.

7. Repeat the previous step to program up to four transmitters.

8. Turn the ignition switch to the ON (one more click forward) position in order to exit the keyless entry transmitter mode.

 

Okay that is the way to program my truck, which wasnt working for me but I will try again. My car has different instructions in the manual for programming, but maybe I will try this method on my car as well.

 

Do the FCC ID numbers on the back of the remotes match?
