13 Tahoe Interior Friendly

When we bought our 13 Tahoe LT from a used Chevy a few years ago, they gave us two key fobs and two keys, as you would expect when buying a used car that has hardly been was used. Well a key fob didn't work and they pretended to be stupid as to why because as a used lot they weren't able to do any real repairs and of course they didn't want to talk about how much GM craves your key fobs program like a 6 year old kid. Guarding his Halloween candy. But before it became a problem and I didn't want to deal with theft, I decided to give it a try. Long story short, I now have 3 fully functional keychains. Follow the instructions carefully and everything worked on the first try. In my case it was like that. 1) Electronically lock the truck in the vehicle. 2) Turn the ignition key to the "on" position. 3) Plug the programmer into the OBDII connector. 4) Wait for a beep and an orange light on the programmer. (The dashboard will display "Key Fob Programming Mode".) 5) Simultaneously press and hold the "Lock" and "Unlock" buttons on the key fob until you hear a tone from the programmer. 6) Repeat key fob instruction for all key fobs. 7) After the last fob is programmed, patiently wait for a single long beep from the programmer. 8) After hearing the tone, remove the programmer and check all key fobs. Note: The instructions state that a programmer is only suitable for 3 programming sessions. I hope I never need it again but it's nice to know I have 2 sessions left if I need to buy new keychains.
