Synchronizing Transmitters

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Each transmitter has a unique code that changes every 5 seconds. After programming transmitter to vehicle, the remote control door lock receiver will update this code every 5 seconds to match code programmed in transmitter. Transmitter may not communicate or become out of synchronization if one of the following conditions occur:

Move a programmed transmitter within range. Press transmitter LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for 7 seconds. Vehicle horn will chirp once when transmitters are synchronized. If this procedure does not restore lost transmitter operation, go to PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS  .
