Programming a second Keyless Remote

[The Nacc]

Hi guys

I am trying to program a second keyless remote for my 2001 3.5 litre.

First of all can anybody help me with the procedure so I can do it myself. I read a few posts on the subject, but none seem to be for a 2001.

Another dumb question is where is the DLC on the 2001 and what does it look like.

Looking forward to a reply

Thanks in advance

The Nacc....The following instructions for remote programming are from
the 2001 Aurora shop manual. You need a scan tool for this.

Thanks Marc Aurora 2001

That procedure looks pretty official.

I came across something in another board yesterday that talked about a "fused jumper wire" and the 4th and 8th input on the data line connector.

Is a "fused jumper wire" have the same purpose the same as a scan tool that you mention.

The procedure it mentioned was almost the same one as in the arcticle you mentioned only it used a "fused jumper wire" and the 4th and 8th input on the data line connector.


Have you heard of this. And does it work

Thanks in advance

It does the same thing. They state the use of the scan tool to get you into the dealer.

I knew about connecting those 2 terminals, but I always thought that
that was for the 1995/99, and not the 2001/03.

Hi Guys,
I have a question about the remotes.
All functions work on both of mine (1997 Aurora),
except the unlock and also when I put the car in Park and shut down the engine, the doors do not unlock then, either.
Is there a way to program, that function back in, or is it another problem?

I'm a tech at a Olds dealer. You can't ground the pins on the DLC on the Aurora to enter program mode. Works on some GM's, not the Aurora. You need the Tech 2 scan tool, take it to the dealer, you're only option.

I guess I found out that, my problem isn't in the remote, but some place else, The unlocks don't work when you put the car in park...
Thanks, Lee

Hey Brian, gonna have to disagree with you but I sure got it to work on my Aurora (1995) and I just grounded the 4 & 8 terminals and it worked great. Saved about $200 compare to taking to the dealer. I am unsure if the same thing works for the 2001 but pretty sure according to the forums I've read here. Any one know for sure?

I jumped them on my 97 too. The lock/unlock options can be set without the remotes as called out in the owners manual.

I was able to set my '96 using a fused jumper wire - with instructions found on the Forum. Worked great. (Also found the instruction on ALLDATA - just to be sure).
