- If you get a new keyless entry remote (key fob) or change the battery in your remote you may need to reprogram your vehicle to accept the remote. This procedure works for a lot of 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, and some 2008, and 2009 GM (Chevtolet and GMC) vehicles. See below for vehicles that the procedure should work on.

Thanks for not making a 30 min video on this 3 min project. Lol awesome job.
I know right!!😁
Thank you so much for this helpful video clip thank you for showing it describing it is greatly appreciate it. You're awesome you're the best.
Ok easy just programmed my two new ones from ebay
Thank you, sir!!!! Worked like a charm on my 2005 GMC Yukon. The last time I had reprogrammed one fob, I thought I had to do the steps all over for the second fob. Seeing you program the second and third one was fascinating. It was the “Oh” moment. Haha.
Thank you! I cleaned everything like you said and replaced the battery. Trained the remote and it is working perfectly. You saved us at least a $100.00. Easy to follow directions. Thank you!
Worked first try, on a 2004 Chev Suburban K2500!
Thank you! saved me $150 to have a pair of remotes programmed at the local Chev dealer... What an unholy ripoff, for about 90 seconds of labor...
Again - THANK YOU, electronhacks - Thank you, You Tube!!
Thanks for your help i appreciate!!! Just programed my in laws key fob for their suburban they couldn't be happier
Ordered keys and fobs from ebay for $12. Just finished programming my remotes after watching this video. Thanks for the help. Awesome and straight to the point video.
Wanted to let everyone know that it worked flawlessly on my 2004 Silverado. No issue whatsoever took me less than 1 minute to set up my key fob , every button works thank you soo much
This video was perfect! Programmed the fob on our 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer on the first shot. Content was concise yet very helpful. Thank you so much for sharing!
2001 gmc sierra... worked first time... bought an extra remote on Amazon... this was the first video to come up... worked as described! I'm ecstatic!...I think the main thing is to make sure you have the correct remote part# and FCC id#... again worked great
This guy knows what he is taking about. Worked great for my syncing my fob to my vehicle. Easy and very simple to follow his instructions. Mine is now working thanks to this guy.
Very helpful. Just bought two new remotes on Amazon for only $20. Your video helped me program them in just a few minutes
Just for those who try this and don't have the locks cycle, still continue. I thought it wasn't working for me but then I tried the remote and it worked even though the locks never cycled during programming.
Thanks! I tried using the directions the dealership gave me and couldn't get it. I watched your video, twice, then went out to my truck and ABRA CADABRA. Like magic, it worked!
Thank You! This worked like a charm. I bought new batteries and couldn't activate the alarm after installing them. A quick and easy fix!
Thank you so much! it just took me ten minutes to do what the gm dealership wanted to charge me $97.50 per hour, to try to figure out why my remote wasn't working.
Thank you for a clear and concise video. It worked for programming on an aftermarket and my original GM on a 2002 Sonoma. With the help of your video, I was able to program both remotes first run thru....
Believe it or not you're video saved me money on a tow truck and a major headache. My Silverado has this problem that most have with leaving you stranded by having the check engine security lock flashing. Thank you, Thank you,Thank you.
Thank you you are the only one that explained that while you have to do all of them at once you so not repeat ALL the steps for all three of them, I apreciated
Thank you very much for your video! Replaced my passenger window control module because of some issues and your video worked exceptionally well!
They told me to turn the key 3 times and I had to return the remote twice because I thought it wasn't working the woman from customer support had an attitude but this right here worked thank you so much
THANK YOU!!! You saved me about $100. after paying $56. + shipping for the new remote. It said (on the shipping invoice) "see your dealer for programming" HA! Worked first time- your awesome!! Thanks again!!
Glad it worked for you!! I despise being gouged! Happy Motoring ;)
Patty Jarrett I just ordered a new remote for my 2001 chevy cavalier, and it said the same, I'm gonna try this first
Make sure and keep me posted- it worked like a charm for me. I still have car and the same remote! you should no trouble if you go by this video. Good luck! I'll be waiting to see how it goes. =)
Ebay has them cheaper i got 2 for $10 shipped
Holy shit. I only paid about 9$ for my remote.
we need more people like this guy
Thanks for this video...simple to follow steps made it easy to reprogram both remotes for my ‘03 Envoy after replacing the batteries. Appreciate it🙂
WOW thank you so much! I have spent hours searching forums, youtube, tech bulletins ... everything I could think of and could not find a solution. My fob stopped working after installing an aftermarket radio in my 2001 Silverado. I was ready to pull the radio out and put the ugly original back in, after finding this video I had it fixed in 30 seconds! Thank you so much!
worked like a charm. 2003 silverado. you saved me big time. I owe you a beer my friend!
thank you so much. i had my keys stollen or lost so needed to get the fob replaced quickly. i went to my local dealership and they wanted 275$ for the fob and programing. you just saved me so much money thank you
Good instructions. My drivers side door controls don't work anymore so I had to use passenger door unlock button to program. Works great. Thanks.
Had to replace my battery. Worked on my 2000 Savana. Thank you !!!
Simple, to the point, and worked well. Thank you. 2002 Suburban, for anyone curious
Thanks for saving me a chunk of money, Amazon wanted to charge $120.00 to have a locksmith come over and program the remotes.
Super simple, thanks.
You posted this on my sister's birthdays which interestingly enough just sold me her 1999 GMC Suburban so it was meant to be, thank you for posting
Awesome Tutorial still providing functional assistance to date....
Maine Maine still works to date.
Thanks, Posting things like this on youtube makes it easy and simple for people to solve issues without spending alot of time researching a solution, time I can spend with my kids. Its great when cool people can share knowledge that can help a honest consumer save a lil money on things that crooks overcharge for.
I've watched his video several times because I buy and resale these truck I hope you have earned a lot of money from CZcams thank you sir
In less than one minute this video saved me time but more importantly, money. Thank you electronhacks.
Thanks for this video! This absolutely helped me out 💯 and I was able to do it myself within the first try! Now I can use my keyless entry remote on my 06 Chevy Trailblazer. THANK YOU!!!
I couldn't program both my remotes, but I was able to reprogram my original remote thanks to this awesome video
The procedure really works. I had both a 2001 Suburban and a 2001 Yukon.
But now I own a 2002 Suburban and I've already bought twice devices and I do know why it never works.
05/18/2022. Worked great. Thank you for showing this video!
2000 Silverado worked great.now to figure out why only one fob works. Oh well one driver one fob and it works. Thanks, quick and easy.
For anyone who's having problems, 3 things. Make sure to let go off the unlock on the door quickly after switching the key to off the 2nd time, make sure to hold the remote up over the steering wheel for the signal to work. Make sure to press the lock button on the fob a milisecond or two before pressing down the unlock button and holding them both down....
And of course make sure the fobs have working batteries.. which can be tricky because these fobs have no light indicators. If it's not working try replacing the 3v battery with a new, fresh one. They're cheap.
Everything worked except the fobs. Thanks though.
Thanks for the confusion, the video did just fine.
Thank you for this. I've tried a few different times and it worked once but I think I messed it up when I tried separately to program another fob. I'm going take all this information and give it a try tomorrow!
This works perfect the first time on my 2003 GMC Sierra. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the tutorial...it worked perfectly the first time and saved me the C note! Two thumbs up for your help...you rock!
That did it! Everyone said the 2005 Astro passenger van had no programming mode. This is it.
Apparently, it takes a max of 4 keyfobs.
Thank you so much!!! Chevy wanted to charge me $80 for this. You just saved me money and time. God bless you
Took me 3 try's, I didn't turn the key to reset memory after the procedure. Thank you so much EH's
Worked like a charm the first time, Thank you for the information.
Great video. Short, sweet, and to the point. Thanks!
Just used it on my 02 Silverado worked awesome, saved me some $$. Thank you!
Your CZcams post....Programed our 2008 GMC Envoy SLE.... FOB Brand new from Genuine GM 1st time perfectly... Thank You very much
Thanks! A LOT of help! Worked on my 2008 Pontiac G6! The dealership couldn't even get this to program, but I did after watching this! You're awesome!!!
Just saved $75 for a new key fob thanks amigo....
thanks for posting this video there was 2 places here in az that wanted 85 amd other 100 for 1 fob programmed yesterday i went to junk yard for a center seat and truck had 2 remotes girl said i can have them watched your vid and boom i now have 2 fob remotes programmed saved me atleast 90 bucks 🤘🤙👍✊
The great thing is for a family of GM cars in the house, you can use one remote for other GM cars too. If a thief is in the driveway press panic button from your window and all your GM cars in range will sound the siren!
Add 2004 Escalade EXT to your list. Worked perfectly. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for your video it worked😄... all this time I thought my remote was broken😒thanks for the help
Let me get your number 💕💕👀
Thank you! The instructions that came with my remotes did not work. Thanks to you, I did it in a minute!
Easy to follow and worked great. Thank you!
Thank you. You're smarter than my local Chevrolet dealer. Thank you!
Thanks again sir I program my truck for the second time. Make sure you guys get the alarm controlle for your vehicle name, brand and year 🤙
You saved me $50 dollars that the dealership was trying to charge me. Thank you sir!!!
I couldnt figure out what i was doing wrong... Programming separately,.. Good thing I watched your vid.
My truck doesn't have the first step. The one where you hold the unlock button. Doesn't lick at all. Help
Hey thank you!! That was a great trick about all the remotes at once. That was frustrating me like crazy. Good job on the video!! It was easy to follow, just right. Ray from TEXAS
Worked for me on the second try for my 03 Silverado. Thanks! I hate giving money to the dealership
Thanks for info
Just got two for my Chevy Silverado and didn't know how to do it and this video was extremely helpful in explaining how to program them.
Thank you I was able to reprogram an old keyless fob that I had so saved a few bucks now I only have to pay for the extra key.was really able to do it in less than a minute.
It took like 20-25secs but it worked for my "01 Tahoe, great job
Thanks for the video. It worked like the video described! I worked for a GM dealer in the late 80's to mid 90's and the the first ones as I recall had a transceiver in the trunk that you had to activate in some manner (my memory is a little fuzzy on this) This is way easier!
Thought my new fob was a bust for my 01 burb. Until i found your video. Thanks bro
worked perfectly for my new set of key fobs! took me a minute to do this! Thanks!
Worked great 👍. Just did 2 fobs for 2006 Silverado 2500HD Duramax.
I watched the ads since you took the time to make this video.
Thank you kindly...Like a Charm! 2002 Chevy Trailblazer worked for me!
You just made my night I thought losing mine was catastrophic lol
Great video!! Didn't understand other instructions on google but this was a big help thanks.
I just followed your instructions for my 2001 Yukon XL. It worked great. Thank you.
Thanks man! After trying other procedures on my 1998 LSabre, your video worked as demonstrated. Thanks again.
That worked on my 99 GMC Jimmy. Thanks!!!!
Thank you very much been debating on whether to buy a brand new remote or not and they save me money thank you
Thanks for this. My key fob arrived today and it didn't even take me 5 minutes to get mine to work.
Great Video. thanks, it worked. They were charging me 75$ to do it at the shop and it took me less than a minute to do it..
By the way, for anyone who may be wondering... I was able to do this on a 2005 Chevy Tahoe PPV (ex-state trooper police truck) and it worked great!
Awesome video! Thank you. Quick and easy.
Yesterday, my fob stopped working. So I though it was the battery. Bought a new battery and tried to do the reprogram. After turning the ignition key on and off twice, while holding done the unlock button on the door panel, the door locks cycle, then the horn beeps. Then I hold both buttons on the fob. I've waited close to a minute and nothing happens. I tried this with two other fobs and nothing happens. I cycle the ignition on and off to en the program cycle. Any ideas what's wrong?
Thx man my truck has never had a key fob but now it does
Thank you very much i got a remote out of a junk truck and it programed right to my tahoe.. Out of a pick-up... Thanks again cause the dealer said it it $150 and i paid nothing for the remote so i definitely made out... Thanks again
Worked for me. Nice to have extra remotes working. Thanks
It was so useful in my GMC Safari 2000. Thanks.
Worked great for my 02 Avalanche.
Thanks for the video it made it easy!
hope it works with my 03 avalanche
Worked like a friggin charm! (2006 Trailblazer)
Thank you for your video . It was very helpful . 😁😀
THX MAN!! You just saved me $200!!!!
Thank you very very much for this helpful video..took me 7min. To complete.
As far as I know the models I listed use the same remote so yes they can be interchanged, I would try to get one for the same year though just incase.
so thankful to you! it worked like a charm. i tried following this fat heads video who was more concerned with complaining about how cold it was outside rather than focusing on the instructions, and all i got was frustrated. thanks again. sin razorback
I don’t leave feedback, but on this one had to. Worked first time. Thank you
I'm glad I didn't have to drive down to the dealership and wait for them and pay 16 bucks for them to do this. Thanks!!
Worked like a charm , thank you sir , these informational video are all we need here in CZcams , not those worldstar twerking video
Great! It worked 1st time on my '01 Chev 2500hd Silverado!
wow this is so easy to do... i was trying to do it by the papper instructions but this video made it so easy to do!!!! thanks for this video>>>>>> 09.04.12
