FAQs
How do I program my keyless entry remote for my 2007 Pontiac G6?
First, sit inside the vehicle and close all doors. Hold down the unlock and lock buttons on your remote simultaneously for about 15 seconds, until the vehicle’s doors lock and unlock. Release the buttons and press and hold the unlock button for another 10 seconds. The doors should again lock and unlock, indicating that the programming was successful.
What if my keyless entry remote doesn’t work after programming it?
First, check the batteries in the remote to make sure they are working properly. If the batteries are fine, try repeating the programming steps to see if a mistake was made. If the remote still doesn’t work, there may be an issue with the remote itself and it may need to be replaced.
Can I program multiple keyless entry remotes for my 2007 Pontiac G6?
Yes, you can program up to four remotes for one vehicle. Simply repeat the programming steps for each additional remote. If you have more than four remotes, you may need to erase the programming for some of the existing remotes before programming new ones.
