Please Help, Need to Re-Program Remote

[ducksfan20]

I have a 1998 Corvette that I need to know how to re-program the remote(s) without having to go to the dealer. Thanks.

You need a special scan tool and all the remotes to program it. I had mine done at the dealer and the charge was $15. The tool is way more than that. Good luck

I'd look in your owners manual. For my 98 I just held in the lock and unlock buttons for 10+ secs until the horn honked at me. Presto! an eazy fix!

Programming Transmitters


Turn the ignition to ON.
Turn the radio to OFF.
Press the RESET button in order to clear any IPC warning messages.
Press and release the OPTIONS button on the DIC to scroll through the display options until the IPC display is blank.
Press and hold the RESET button for 3 seconds .
Press the OPTIONS button until FOB TRAINING message is displayed. Note : If the FOB TRAINING message cannot be display, check if the BCM is configured with the correct RPO codes.
Press the RESET button in order to begin the programming sequence. The message HOLD LK + UNLK 1ST FOB will be displayed.
Simultaneously press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the first transmitter for 15 seconds . The IPC will indicate when that transmitter is programmed and when to proceed to the next. Repeat this procedure for each additional transmitter or press the OPTIONS button to exit. Programming Cancellation The receiver will cancel the programming sequence if any of the following conditions occur:
The program mode is exited through the DIC.
The ignition is turned to OFF.
The three transmitters have been programmed.
The RFA system has been in the program mode for longer than 2 minutes and no transmitters have been learned.
If the program mode is cancelled with less than three codes stored, the receiver will only accept the codes just stored. If the program mode is cancelled before any code is stored, the codes still remain valid.

The receiver retains all current access codes in memory if either of the following conditions occur:


A programming sequence is interrupted.
The battery is disconnected.
Synchronizing Transmitters
Preform the following procedure if a transmitter cannot communicate or becomes out of synchronization with the receiver:


Move a programmed transmitter within range.
Press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the transmitter simultaneously for 7 seconds .
The horn will chirp once when the transmitter is synchronized. Repeat this procedure for each additional transmitter if needed.
