Thread: Key fob programming

Google search on how to do it. You need to take out the MAP (I believe) fuse to program it.

1998-2003 Key Fobs



Enter the car and close all doors. In the fuse panel, remove the "MALL PGM" fuse. Put your key into the ignition, and turn to "ACC." Turn the key on and off within a second. Open and close the driver's door and listen for the chime that indicates you are in programming mode. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 14 seconds, listening for the chime. Wait 14 seconds for the second chime. Repeat this step for all additional remotes, remove the key, replace the fuse, and exit the car. You will have programmed the remotes.

Battery issues or ignition issues.......

if you bought the car with no fob, call a dealer with your vin#. some cars just dont get to have a fob.

also flip both fobs over, theres a part # on the back. if they dont match it wont work, 01 regal fob, may not work on a 98 gp.

if your fob was working before it maybe fix able by cleaning the contacts on the board and the button pads with rubbing alcohol.

or it may just need the ground soldered back near the battery.
