    You push the remote twice to start GMs, but you also need the remote start module/piece to start the car. It connects from the battery to the starter and disables the kill switch.

    Good info for replacing the key. I used a small nail to knock the pin out because the tiny drill bits kept breaking.
    I have the push button start so my programming was different than the way you showed.

  • @ridesharesourcedriver7321
    @ridesharesourcedriver7321 11 месяцев назад

    Sometimes check engine light will prevent the starter, and the light blinks as you try to start. Sometimes erasing codes fixes this, but sometimes it only starts once and then trips code and no rs again . This doesn’t activate remote start to all cars, I’ve had several without remote start button and new key with RS button does not start the car because not equipped

  • @chevycamero2862

    Not sure if you have a check engine light on but on GM cars the remote start will not operate if you do.
    My 2015 Impala had remote start and you just push the lock button one time then push the remote start button and hold until it starts. Been the same on all my GM cars with remote start.

      You will most likely have to got to the dealer. Jeep\Daimler_Chrysler\Mercedes the remotes aren't easily changeable. I had to go to the dealer for my 2006 Grand Cherokee. The remote I got off eBay didn't work. The locksmith said it depends on where the car is made. The dealer key cost $500 and had to come from Germany as that's where my Jeep was built. The ebay one was $50. Everything on that Jeep was crazy expensive.
