Chevy Key Fob Programming: Follow Along Step-by-Step

First thing’s first: You’ll need to have your Chevy remote start key fob in hand to get started. Then, take the following steps.

  1. Manually unlock your car door with your Chevy key.
  2. Ensure all car doors are fully shut, then insert the key into the ignition, but don’t turn the key yet.
  3. On the driver’s side door, press and hold the unlock button, then turn your key to the “On” position in the ignition. Your interior lights and touchscreen display will come on, but the engine should not ignite.
  4. Quickly turn your key back to the “Off” position, then turn it to “On” and right back to “Off” once more in succession. (On – Off – On – Off)
  5. Release the unlock button on the driver’s door.
  6. Upon releasing the unlock button, the door locks should cycle through engaging and disengaging. This is when you’ll know that the programming sequence has begun.
  7. On your Chevy key fob, press and hold the “Unlock” and “Lock” buttons at the same time until you hear the door locks cycle again, signalling that you’ve successfully programmed the Chevy key fob.
  8. Insert the newly programmed key back into the ignition in the “On” position to stop the programming sequence.

Whether you’re programming a Chevy Malibu key fob or a Chevy Silverado key fob is no matter – the instructions outlined here will work for all models.
