04-08 Pontiac Grand Prix - Remote Start Not Working? Try This.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- Factory remote start on a Grand Prix is one of the greatest factory features you can have. More and more cars come standard with this feature. But remote start, just like any other feature, can fail. There is actually one simple reason for this. Music: www.purple-plan...
Bro I have had my car for 3 years. Never even crossed my mind it had remote start. Saw you video thumbnail and was like “my fob looks like that” and boom started right up. 👍 no more cold ass Canadian mornings for this fella.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Same thing with me. I was like Whaaaa...Automatic Start? Keyfob looks like mine TOO🤣😂
5 min video to say:
If your check engin light is on then remote start is deactivated. There I just saved you 4:55 of your life.
I hate morons like this. Glad I saw your comment immediately brother. Thank you for your service lol!
You wrong I needed the screen part asshat lmao
My 2008 Grand Prix had a similar problem with the fob.
It worked intermittently.
Try cleaning the the inside of the fob. Soap and water for the rubber part and +90% alcohol for the circuit board.
Works like a champ now.
Man thanks. I didn't know I had to press lock door before holding start to remote start the car. It actually work. Thanks. So much for your video
Man I didn't know either I was pressing it and the lights would show up but it wouldn't remote start. Gonna have to go try this now.
Just got a 2008 grand prix. Now I know why my remote start doesn't work.thanks.
Just grabbed me one a few days ago
@@chrismacks3640 Nice! How has it served you so far?
I've heard you can put some grease around the seal on your gas cap to help seal it if that is the problem!
Why you didn't show how to clear code
Extremely sensitive cars these Grand prix's are. Things that won't make the engine light come on and other cars will make the engine light come on and all of these green Priests of this year. I think my engine light is on because of Simply a radiator leak. I keep water in it. I used some JB Weld and rebuilt the neck of the radiator. Put the hose back on while the J-B Weld still wet. Inserted a bottle of bars stop leak with the Pebbles. So I'm good for about two weeks. Engine light off the whole time. As soon as the Engine light popped on, looked under the car, it was leaking again. Won't pass inspection because of the pending condition. Engine light on but no codes. Just pending because of the leak. I guess I'll buy a new radiator. They get brittle.
I have a G6 and I love it, but the check engine light is on all the time! I took it to the shop to try to get to the bottom of it and they didn't know what it was even with the various codes. After taking it to the shop 3 times and replacing all of the fuel/emission related tanks, caps, coils, lines and costing an arm and a leg it finally went off and stayed of for almost a year. Now it's back on again...and the auto start isn't working. Sigh. I figured I'd have to replace the auto start mechanism in the car, but it's good to know it will probably work okay again once I get the engine light figured out. Unfortunately the auto start mechanism in the car would probably be the cheaper fix!!!
Lol who doesn't have an engine light on a Grand Prix?
Me

engine light on here😂

Grand frix poniac pursuit engine light easy to fix how? Turn your key, in a on position then remove your battery negative therminal or the black cord for atlease 10 second then put it back the engine lights will be off.
How would I know if my car came with remote start if I don't have the OEM key fob?
If the dic has the remote start option on it does that mean my 05 base has it already?? I bought a key gob for it after I bought the car but it’s one that only locks and unlocks the doors. Which model remote would I need for the remote start? Thanks.
How did you program your new fob?
I don't have a check engine light on I have everything set up right and my self start still won't work. I don't know why.
Crystal Trottier have you solved your problem yet?
On my gxp i pressed and held the lock and unlock at the same time and held it until the car beeped after i read some forums and it worked. When it stopped working again that didnt work anymore and this time i replaced the rubber pad on the remote and haven't had a problem since. Same problem, two fixes. Try both
If you have this issue with a gm product cleared the codes and and still have no start?
MAKE SURE THE BATTERY CAGE IS NOT LOOSE ON FOB. Noticed mine was whyle watching what my scanner said. It would lock/unlock and instead of start it would jump to stop engine not start. As if pressed it twice 😑
Put a cigarette but in the fob to keep it down and BOOM starts like it did before 🎉🎉
This happened to an aftermarket fob i programed off amazon as well 🫡
Hey thanks a lot man this totally work for my car it told me I had disabled auto start feature
iad1237 mine is disabled and I can’t figure it out
How to disable theft lock?
LOL what grand prix DOESNT have the check engine light on? I have an 06' grand prix and i swear theres another major problem every month. I know many other people experience similar issues with these cars and its annoying as hell.
My issue is that damn transmission 👿👿👿
How do I program my remote to the vehicle?!? Please help!
My remote star only works in the mornings when I wake up, and sometimes it only tries to start but it doesn’t, my engine light is paid for, how can I fix that? In the icy mornings, inside it’s still frozen
Do anyone no if the 2007 need the key paid wilts 4 or 5 on remote
For all the G5/cobalt owners, Get yall ignition switch recall done if yall haven't yet. It's free and a piece of mind, maybe you will get a free vacuum and window clean out of it too.
Where do I go to get that done?
Where?! Didn't Pontiac go bankrupt?
My Malibu and my friends Grand Prix wont remote start unless the doors are locked! I don't know about the GP but the Malibu also has a sensor on the hood... If the hood is not closed all the way it won't start! FYI
A LOT of vehicles are like that, too many stollen without OnStar or whatever and there was nothing to be done because the cheap bastards don't have 2 way, so no kill switch.
If the radio is unplugged with that make the key fob stop working?
My engine light is the catalyst. Catylitic converter
Same, then a wheel speed sensor so I have to replace the whole hub. I've have a new front set since I bought it like 2 year ago, just haven't had a weekend free since then that I wasn't working on a bike.
Yes. I am not worried about it really.
GPVlog hey. my car has the remote start in the on the dic as yours do. would they still make that option even if the car was made without remote start?
GPVlog does your remote start work with your hood open?
I'm running three different emission codes p0499 and p0455
My car did the samething when it said disable remote but my check engine light is or wasn't never on 🤔
My alarm just goes off when I press it I have a 2007
Same here
Thanks for the video helped me out
They jam all the electronic features into these things but can’t give you a way to get the codes from it...
Thanks for the video.
how come my door unlock button stopped working, all other buttons work, ive changed battery few times, cleaned it few times, have a friend who has same kind car, same year, she also has same problem,
any1 ??
I know this video is old, hope you can still answer. Cause I just bought a 06 GXP GP. How do I know My car has remote start, my key is a copy, just a key, like a house key, no remote. And I dont have a Manual either. Any other way to know? Ty
Buy a key fob off Amazon for the make and model and it should come pre programmed to your vehicle
Does this apply with hood ajar switch
you see i try to start mine and the light blinks then on screen it says remote start disable. i go to personal settings and there is no option of remote start on or off , its just not there. i do have tire pressure light on because of aftermarket rims. any suggestions? ???
Did you ever figure it out because I have the same problem as you
@@xXDborgeXx did you figure it out im having the same problem with my 2008 pontiac gp
I have the same issue I've been battling. Did you ever figure it out?
how do you adjust the DIC date? Mines incorrect and didn't see the option anywhere to adjust it to the correct date.
Michael J
try the gas cap
I purchased 2 remote transmitters. Do you know how they can be programmed without going to the dealer?
Pull the bcm fuse, turn the key to run, off, run, off I think 8 times. The doors will lock then unlock. Hit a key on each fob you want programmed, shut the ignition off, put the bcm fuse back in.
Did the advise from Micheal Rink about programming your fob work? I have an 07 Pontiac Grand Prix and just purchased a new key and fob because my husband lost the spare. I know some Home Depots will do the transponder key but not the fobs. Please advise and thanks.
Thanks m8
My alarm remote only works wen i press the lock button / the rest don't work idk what could be wrong??
Julio Rocha the contacts on rubber buttons inside the fob are worn out
Why did my keyfob for a 07 GP slowly quick working
My engine light aunt on either
Did you get a recall on your go too?
I just got a used '07 grand prix, but it didn't come with a fob. Can you make a video on how to program a new fob? Thank you.
I have an 07. I replaced my battery and now my fob wont work at all. wondering the same question.
my 05 grand prix has charging system failure , and starting disabled due to theft
Jennifer Steadman did you fix it?
Jennifer Steadman when I first bought the car my theft system was disabled. when I got a transmission put it in I guess they reprogrammed it so it activated. turned out I had a key with the wrong chip in it. damn dealership.
Ricky Wiley yes thanks, needed to have a fully charged battery with a good connectio. and had to lock the car with doors shut and then.unlock from outside driver door
Jennifer Steadman como bajar memes
Jennifer Steadman hey there
How do I clear out the check engine light? I have a key fob programming interface, can I use that somehow...or any other way you can suggest? Thank you, sir...I appreciate your vids... they've been extremely helpful with my recently purchased 2008 GP Base... the electronics in this thing are shit... but the car is fast as hell and drives and rides like a champ...I love it... recently replaced the DIC and have the old mileage in it...so after a month, I still don't know the actual meilesge......haha!
So how did you clear the check engine light?
Probably with a scanner. He cleared the code but it came back as you seen
Seems. That's Perfect. escape live What's your opinion about this, guys
