1999 Chevy Tahoe keyless remote

[smoke25]

Hi there. I need the steps to the reprogramming of a 1999 Chevy Tahoe keyless entry remote. Can anyone give me some help on this matter. Thanks.

you have to short two pins on the ecm connector under the dash and then press the lock and unlock buttons on the remote together and wait for the lights and horn to flash , sorry I cant remember which two pins but I did find the procedure on the internet through a google search. I had to do this when I got my truck in April so I know the info is out there. Good luck

Did you get your remote programmed? If not, I can give you the program instructions.

Transmitter Programming Base

If they key is in the ON position during the programming procedure, the horn chirp will be disabled, if the key is in the OFF position, the horn chirp will be enabled. The horn will chirp when the lock button is pressed two times.

When reprogramming the remote control door lock reciever, All transmitters must be programmed at this time in order for the transmitters to operate the vehicle. Transmitters not programed at this time will not work and the procedure will have to be redone with all the transmitters.

1. Ground pin 4 to pin 8 of the data link connector (DLC). The receiver will respond by locking and unlocking the doors, and activating the liftgate window release (if equipped) within 2 seconds.

2. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously on the first transmitter to be programmed until the locks cycle (approximately 10 seconds).

3. Repeat step 2 for up to four total transmitters to be programmed (if available). The receiver will respond by locking and unlocking the doors and activating the liftgate window release (if equipped) within 2 seconds.

4. Remove the ground applied to the DLC.

5. Lock and unlock the doors in order to verify the transmitter operation.

6. Activate the rear window release in order to verify the transmitter operation.

Where is the data link connector?

[hilliardc]

how is the data link connector numbered right to left? left to right? up down from the left? down up from the right? how do you tell? Im confused

[Laaz]

The Data Link Connector is under the dash to the left of the steering column, its numbered left to right.

Also you need to leave the 4 pin grounded to the 8 pin while programming. When you first ground them the locks will activate.

I am looking under my dash, all I see to my left is a grey box and alot of BLK GRY etc etc. My Tahoe is a 1998, this should be the same, am I unplugging anything ? Please let me know LAAZ. Thanks

Hi there. I was wondering if you could possibly send those instructions for my 1999 Tahoe remote to me either on here or at [email protected]. I need to reprogam my remote asap. Thanks a lot. I appreciate it

This would be easier if I knew what the Data Link Connector looked like. Anyone know where I can see a diagram or picture of the DLC for a 1999 Chevy Tahoe?
Thanks,

Is this the same procedure for the Silverado? (minus the window button of course) My keyless entry doesnt work from very far away at all, maybe 10 ft or less and hardly ever works if I am standing behind the truck and I was wondering if this would help the problem at all. Ive replaced the battery in the remote and its still the same, on my 02 2500 I had I could use it from across the parking lot at work so it seems something isnt quite right with it.

This is about the best pic and description I have found for the DLC. Its located on the drivers side under the dash.
