Transmitter Synchronization
1999 Chevrolet Suburban C2500, 6.5 FSECTION Transmitter Synchronization
- Transmitter synchronization may be necessary due to the security method used by the RKE system. The transmitter does not send the same signal twice to the receiver.
- The receiver will not respond to a signal which has been previously sent. This prevents anyone from recording and playing back the signal from the transmitter.
- Resynchronization will be necessary if any of the following occur:
- You change the transmitter battery.
- You disconnect the vehicle battery.
- You push the transmitter button 256 times out of the range of the receiver.
- In order to synchronize the transmitter with the receiver, perform the following:
- Stand close to the vehicle.
- Simultaneously press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the transmitter for seven seconds.
