Remote Transmitter Programming: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Pontiac Grand Am and 2002 Oldsmobile Alero. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: While reprogramming remote lock control transmitter, leave window down to avoid unintentional lockout if procedure is not properly performed.

All transmitters that are to be recognized by Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (RCDLR) must be programmed in a single programming sequence. If system is placed in program mode, all previously programmed transmitters will be erased upon receipt of programming signal from first transmitter. Up to 4 transmitters can be programmed to vehicle. Do not operate or program transmitters in vicinity of other vehicles that are in keyless entry program mode. This prevents programming of transmitters to incorrect vehicle. Order in which transmitters are programmed is important. First transmitter programmed will be transmitter #1, and second transmitter programmed will be transmitter #2. Use care to program transmitters correctly.
