Another keyless entry issue

[JonJon68]

Ok guys, 97GPGT, I bought a brand new keyless entry fob and need directions programing it. I've ran searches and have come up empty for 97's. If I need to pull the mall pgm, what's the color on the back? My fuse chart in my manual is not matching up with what's in my car. Man it's cold out here and I'd like to do this as quickly as possible. Thanks for any help ya'll can give.

Paul, on a '97 model the MALL PGM fuse should be the 10A rated fuse (red) right next to the power window circuit breaker. Try the procedure below:

RKE/Transmitter Programming 1997

1) Sit in driver's seat. Remove ignition key from lock cylinder. Close all vehicle doors. Remove MALL PGM fuse from fuse panel.

2) Insert ignition key and turn key to ACC position. Turn ignition to OFF, then back to ACC within 1 second. Open then close any vehicle door. Chime will be heard when remote control door lock receiver enters programming/diagnostics mode. If chime is not heard, repeat procedure.

3) Depress and hold RKE transmitter LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for 14 seconds. One chime should be heard at 7 seconds to confirm successful synchronization and 14 seconds to confirm successful programming.

4) Repeat Step 3 for each transmitter to be programmed. Remove ignition key. Reinstall MALL PGM fuse. End.

Good luck!

Thank Bob, I was hoping it would be you to respond. It's going to be sunny and warmer tomorrow so I'll go for it then. Thanks again.
