Programming and Relearning



Transmitter Programming

Important: Keyless entry transmitters may also be programmed using the driver information center (DIC). Refer to the vehicle owners manual for information.

Important: All transmitters which are to be recognized by the remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR) must be programmed in a single programming sequence. Once the Invalidate All Fobs selection is made, all learned transmitters are erased. Up to 8 transmitters can be programmed. Do not operate or program the transmitters in the vicinity of other vehicles that are in the keyless entry program mode. This prevents the programming of the transmitters to the incorrect vehicle.

1. With a scan tool, access the Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Module Setup menu. Select Program Key Fobs.
2. Select Invalidate All Fobs. This will erase all learned keyless entry transmitters and prepare the RCDLR to learn transmitters.
3. Select Next Available Slot. Follow the on-screen instructions. Simultaneously hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the keyless entry transmitter to program.
4. When all the desired transmitters have been programmed, exit the vehicle and operate the transmitter functions in order to verify correct system operation.
