1st round was 10 mins, 2nd round was 10 mins, 3rd round blinked off and back on at 10 mins, I waited an additional 25 mins to be safe, light was still on when I took the key out. Then I waited 20 secs to put the key back in to check. Light stayed off and it started. I left the car running for a bit, then turned it off. I tested the buttons and they all worked. Thank you so much!!! It's alive! Just replaced the fob cuz the buttons all broke, transferred the old blade over.
This worked on my brother in laws 2014 chevy Cruze. Only problem is after the first cycle it said “theft attempted” so we had to restart and do it 3 more times. On the third cycle after 10 minutes it blinked off but came back on. So we let it sit for another 30 minutes (40 minutes total for the 3rd cycle) then took the key out and tried using the key. Key ended up working perfectly after that. Thanks so much!!! Took us 70 minutes total to program the new key!
This worked for my 2015 Malibu thank you very much I’m leaving a well deserved like and this comment, honestly I didn’t expect it to work and felt bad of buying the remote at O’Reillys because I just started working there and didn’t wanna return it but thanks to you it all worked thanks for the video
Another way you can do it is to start the car with the original key and then turn it off and put the new key in right behind it this was very helpful and full details
That worked for me for one fob, but not the other. Got this theft deterrent screen too. So I'm gonna try this method and see if it works. I'll report back!
I gotta Cruze. The previous owner had a genuine key purchase cut and programmed . Cost about $850 (AUD). I can purchase a after market skin for $15 or a full key/remote for less than $50. Don't know where you got proceedure from to reprogram, but it works. Great knowledge to learn. Thanks for the share👍💖
Thank you so so much. Started out with the alarm on, switched out the old fob with my new fob and use my original key by taking out the pin. Went to the car unlock the door and the alarm sounded. Put the key in the ignition turned to "B" waited 10 1/2 minute. Turned it back to the original position "A". Waited for alarm to go off (it was loud). Turned the key to "B" waited 10 1/2 minutes again. Turned back to "A" then to "B" the "THEFT DETERRENT" signal went off. Started car and all buttons on FOB work!
Don’t take this the wrong way but I not only loved the video I like that a woman made this. You figured it out! No shame in your game you rock! Thank you!!!
I have a 2019 Chevy Cruze, this did work with one additional step. First of all I started with a blank key also but I had mine cut at the dealership for around $6.00. I did the 3 steps she shows but I still had a "service theft deterrent system. The last step is to put your old key in and turn it to the run position " position b". Then your " service theft deterrent system" message will go away when using the new key.
This helped me! Thank you. Third time, System Deterrent did not go off but I had already waited 40 mins just on 3rd cycle. So I winged it and turned key back to start, removed, and put back in. Boom! All squared away. Thank youuu
I'm in the the third cycle of this process and have been patiently waiting for 20 minutes. I'm praying this works because if it does, I'm getting another key fob. Your instructions were much clearer than other people's. I will update when I am finished.
Hi.. can you update please that it worked for you or not as my original key and fob is not working and still on theft mode. I tried so many ways after seeing the videos .. otherwise i have to tow my car n its gonna be costly.. please let me know from where you got the key fob n how much you paid.. I’ll waiting for your response.. thanks
thank you so much for this video!! I waited 30 min on the last round and the sign didn’t go so I took the risk of just starting all over but it freaking worked!! thank you so much ❤️
I went to see your video because I got anti-lock mode on the screen trying to program a new control with the old key. I got scared and took out the key and put it in the old control. Now I saw your video and I will try it later. Thank you.
Thank you so much!!! It worked exactly like you said. On the third cycle I waited 25 minutes, the light didn't turn off. So I turned it off, took the key out, then put it back in to start it, and it worked! You're a life saver.
@@natestreif5013 That was a while ago but if you follow the instructions I actually programmed my key without any other key just with the car. There is a video on RUclips that shows you how to do it and it actually worked for me.
You're so awesome! This worked on my daughters 2013 Chevy Sonic. We were out there for about 45min to an hr but it worked. It was worth it. We talked and laughed the whole time! Thank you!😁
Thank you for your video I was able to program my new key fob with the original key blade. Now my security light is off you are getting a like on your video.
I have a Cruze 2015 full, but the remote does not open the car, and I went to more than one mechanic who says that he does not know where the problem is, in addition to that the air conditioning of the car is very weak when the car is stationary or walking slowly, but it is strong when it is walking fast
ty this helped and worked .i also only had my one broken key fob and no spare, just took out the pin and put it on a cheap fob ,,,, the warning didn't disappear on the third try after 40 minutes so i took the chance and it worked luckily lol, 17$ key fob on amazon with next day shipping and I got it done in one day lol tysm
Hello, old post but very useful I hope you can help me with answer. I used the same same method you explained it programmed my new key only to start car but it's not locking or unlocking the car or opening trunk. I have original key frequency 315mhz and replacement key 433mhz does these two frequencies makes any difference? Please need help..
Some folks say just put a good key in and turn to start and then off followed by the same with the new key. I tried that and it didn’t work but would allow me to start the car. Next retry it failed so I like her way the best!
Does the pin have to be taken out to work I can’t get it out it fell out before I watched this video and I put it back in now I can’t get it out and the key blade doesn’t shut
Help!! I have destroyed my key fob but still have my key I’m getting a new key fob now and going to follow the directions you give in video on my Chevy Equinox 2015 but the anti theft came on….. any suggestions
so my chevy is stuck in the anti theft lock, all of my FOB buttons are gone and have been gone for years. do i need a new key to get my car out of this lock?? the manual key works and i’ve never had this problem before, im losing my mind over this lock and i’m not sure what the actual problem is. i don’t want to invest in a new key if it isn’t the key itself. PLS HELP
Went to Florida for 2 weeks car sat and lock light came on car locked up wouldn’t start. Along with that theft lock thing after doing your cycles my battery light thing came on and it won’t start when at first it wouldn’t start and it would lock up but now just won’t start. I’m gonna get a jump well see

Very cool, it's a great feeling when you can do things yourself.

@holls, Help!!! I cannot get this to work.
@@ajw5604 did ya get it
@@natestreif5013 no. Had to get a new FOB and programming by dealer.
I tried doing this but my alarm keeps going off. Did you have that problem
My alarm just went off did you ever figure it out

THANKS! HAVE A 2014 CRUZE AND AFTER 20 ISH MINUTES ON THE THIRD CYCLE THE THEFT LIGHT WOULDNT GO OUT SO I RISKED IT AND BOOM TURNED ON AFTER
My favorite part, dealership needs to send the key to Rumania!!! 😆😆😆😂😂🙃😉

Thank you so much!
You saved me $500 bucks
Excellent!

Where did you get the instructions to program the remote?
Good video Holls and great job on the remote rebuild.
Thank you very much! Mine worked and did the exact same thing yours did on the 3rd cycle
Glad it helped
It worked!!!!!! Thank you very much!!!!!
The third time it just flashed and left in for another 10

The key works which is great but do the buttons work to romotely unlock and lock the doors?
I’ve been waiting for 37 minutes on that last try, but nothing is happening. Should I start all over again?
Unfortunately,this did not work on my 2015 Chevy Malibu.The theft deterrent service message never turned off-not once.
Update: hahaha, my battery died so i have no clue if it worked or not. Walked away with a nasty headache and very sweaty.😢

I would try the process again and be sure to leave it in position long enough each time. Good luck!
Thank you so much I did wait 30 minutes before I got the light off, really helpful information. God bless and thank you again, happy Thanksgiving.
Can you do it without the original key? I lost mine but I bought a replacement and don’t want to pay extra
I'm assuming you had a replacement key cut? If so then yes, it should work. I just needed a new remote but not key. That's why I did it this way.
My open and close buttons don’t work now. Can someone please help?! 😞
Replace the battery on your fob
Are you sitting in the car for this whole time? Or can I just walk away with it in ?
What should I do if by 10 minutes, the theft deterrent system light does not goes off ? Not even in the first cycle
I am having the same problem. Did you solve it?
Any answer to this question?
Same here
This does not work without another key
you are a SAINT I tell you. thank you so much.
Some folks say just put a good key in and turn to start and then off followed by the same with the new key. I tried that and it didn’t work but would allow me to start the car. Next retry it failed so I like her way the best!

It's supposed to come on. Watch the video.
Good job! Right now I have a key Immobilizer problem. Want to fix it for me?
Does the new programmed key make the original key not work?
Mine it did make the car turn on but it does not lock or unlock my 2011 chevy cruize with the control its all new battery
Holy cow it really worked. Thank you so much
Definitely worked for starting my car but my buttons don’t work
That is odd. Maybe try the process a second time?
Did your alarm go off at first?
We're did you get the new key fob
Question so i have a push to start how do you fix it
What if the security light is flashing and don’t go off
so my chevy is stuck in the anti theft lock, all of my FOB buttons are gone and have been gone for years. do i need a new key to get my car out of this lock?? the manual key works and i’ve never had this problem before, im losing my mind over this lock and i’m not sure what the actual problem is. i don’t want to invest in a new key if it isn’t the key itself. PLS HELP
Is it possible the fob battery is dead? Why not just invest in a new fob and put the old key in like I did?
Hi, Thanks for the video very helpful ,can you tell me where you got the key romover or can I take it out using something else?
I put the link in description for Key Vice. A small pin tool and a hammer might work if you have a way to hold the fob still...
Did this and now my push to start won’t work, any suggestions
Will this work if the service theft deterrent system on a Chevy Cruze 13
It should.
Thank you millions muchas gracias greetings from Mexico ❤️
Thanks love I was able to program my car ❤️❤️❤️
Hey after the first cycle the security light didn’t come back on should I still keep on with the cycle ?
I suppose not, if the remote is also working.
holls it didn’t work could you email me I have some questions if you don’t mind thanks. rodser96@gmail.com
@@St8HbS if it didn't work I would start over. Hopefully you've figured it out by now. Sorry for the late reply.
You are awesome! My fiancé says thank you as well!
Went to Florida for 2 weeks car sat and lock light came on car locked up wouldn’t start. Along with that theft lock thing after doing your cycles my battery light thing came on and it won’t start when at first it wouldn’t start and it would lock up but now just won’t start. I’m gonna get a jump well see
Maybe disconnect and reconnect the battery? Doesn't sound like a remote programming problem...?
Can you do this with your current key? Nothings wrong with my kwy
Yes. I didn't get a new key cut. This is just the steps to program a new fob.
Where did you purchase your new key fob?
I have the same one but for a Buick Verano.
Ebay
Thank you! This worked for me ❤
I'm so glad! 😊
What did you do to the old key fob?!?! hehe
I ate it.
You sure it was 5sec off or 10 sec off?
yay i needed this video
I'm doomed, I tried to start it.
I did exactly what you said the only problem is my car goes start popping alarm sounds between position A and B
Works on 2017 Chevrolet Cruze
What security light please point
Hi Mari. I'm not sure what your asking? The security light is likely a reference to the anti theft message on the screen.
Very good video and explain.
Thank you so much worked on my 2016 chevy cruzw
You did a great job
Weird my light just blinks constantly... and didn't stop or go out after the 1st 10 min... what a crap car i bought ... lol problems since day 1
I’m having the same problem 😕
Did you solve it?
The best way to do this to your “crap” car is to pay a pro to do the job right. This is just a cheap and inexpensive way of doing things.
You are a super hero ❤
What is that holder thing called?
key vice
Como yo sabre si en verdad program programaste la llave, cortas el video y al ultimo dices que lo lograste,pudo haber sido la llave original, bueno disculpa tengo el mismo problema con mi cruze 2013 y lo hice tal como lo explicas y no se programa mi llave nueva
Pudiste solucionarlo? Tengo el mismo problema
Why is that light that looks like a bottle turning ln
My alarm keeps on going off
What did you do to fix it? I’ve tried everything. A 2012 Cruze
Great video thanks!
It’s not working for me…. 😢 lol your better than most with the info tho
I'm trying to figure out how everyone is saying this worked but I did exactly this and it did NOT work. Did I need a new key or key remote?
This was done using one key and putting it into a new remote. I only had one key.
Mine light not turning off after ten minutes
The third time it won't it seems. So after 15 min. Turn it off, remove key, then try to start the car.
Read some of the other comments. This is common.
I tried it multiple times and didn’t work😣
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that.
That is only sinking the old key in a new she'll
where’d u get it from
The remote or the other contraption?
What is the device called and where did you get it from (that holds the key)
it’s called “Flip Key Vice Fixing Pin Remove Tool Fit For Car Door The Repair Tool Fabulous” for the people who’s wondering 👌👍
Does the fob or remote starter you bought have a chip in it? and how much was that tool you bought to get the key out?
i followed your instructions and my light still on the vehicle not starting i boght new key from dealership
My alarm goes off .. horn honking
This does not work if you don't have another key
It does. I only had one key ever.
Thanks very much
I tried that since yesterday,it's not working.what am I doing wrong? the security feature never goes off or blink
