My question is can anyone verify if this procedure works for 5.5 gens?

searched and this is all I came across, but no one had verfied if it worked for us in that thread. TIA

 

I got in, locked the doors. Turn the key to run and pushed the lock button. Viola!!! For me anyway.

thanks pm, I followed that... and still get nothing

purchased brand new battery installed it properly
I initialize the programming correctly as it flashes hazards, I put it on ACC and hit my button and nothing...

Tried 5 times.. and everytime the button dosent flash Hazards.

Any ideas

 

Is this a new OEM keyfob? If not, maybe your original keyfob is broke?

 

car needs to go to ON position not ACC.

 

tried that still nothing

 

Are you sure the key fob works? It really sounds like there is something wrong with the key fob.

 

try it again, i had to try 10 times on one of my cars to get it working, go slower too.

 

I am ashamed to admit this because I like to think I'm reasonably mechanically inclined and not stupid...but here goes...

I had this problem a few years ago with mine...wasn't a new fob, just a new battery in the old one...I tried this procedure many times...I got the car the respond every time, but the fob just wouldn't work...

As a last resort I thought to myself that MAYBE I'd put the battery in backwards...and then I felt stupid when I found that I had...

Let's just say make sure your battery is in correctly...and if it was in backwards, you'll probably need to replace it again because it drained while in backwards...

 

this....keyfob... is still not giving any feedback.
new battery. new keyfob?

I can intialize the program correctly and when its time to hit a button I get nothing? Any ideas anyone? (How can I find my FCC/serial # if i never had the orginal kf )

 

Can you post a picture of the key fob you have?

 

I think on the remote that I bought off ebay it came with those instructions. It didn't work for me either, so i went to programyourremote.com and there is a little variation in the procedure and it worked for me. Don't know if you have tried that or not, but I had the same problem. I thought I had bought a bad remote until I tried the online instructions.

 

In case of future searches:

Program your Remote 5.5 Gen (2002-2003)

1. Close and lock all doors with the driver’s side power lock/unlock switch.

2. Insert key into ignition and remove it from the ignition key cylinder at least six times within 10 seconds. Your Hazard Lamps will flash if you have performed this step successfully. ( Withdraw key completely from ignition cylinder each time ) . If this procedure is performed too fast, system will not enter programming mode.

3. Insert key into the ignition cylinder and turn to the ACC position.

4. Within 5 seconds, push ANY button on the keyless remote. Your Hazard Lamps should flash. ( Do not press the button more than one time in the above step). If the button is pressed more than one time, the programming procedure will not be successful.

5. If there are any remaining remotes (including the old ones), unlock then lock all doors using the driver’s side power lock/unlock switch and within 5 seconds, push ANY button on the next remote. Your Hazard Lamps should flash. Repeat this step for each keyless remote (including any existing keyless remotes).

6. Turn the key to the OFF position, remove keys from the ignition, unlock doors using the driver’s side power lock/unlock switch and open the driver side door.

 

Sorry to bump this thread but...

Does anyone know how to make the horn sound again with the lock button on the key fob? I am able to lock/unlock the doors but the horn doesn't sound. Thanks.

 

Hold down the lock and unlock together until the lights flash. Done.

 

Awesome man... thanks... worked like a charm
