Losing or damaging your key fob can be a major inconvenience. Fortunately, programming a new or existing key fob for your 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix can often be done right at home without any special tools. This guide provides a straightforward, step-by-step process to program your 07 Grand Prix key fob, allowing you to regain access and control of your vehicle’s remote functions quickly and easily. You can program up to four transmitters to your vehicle. It’s important to note that initiating the programming sequence will erase all previously programmed transmitters, so you’ll need to program all of your key fobs at the same time.
Step-by-Step 07 Grand Prix Key Fob Programming Instructions
Follow these instructions carefully to successfully program your key fob:
- Get in the Driver’s Seat: Begin by sitting in the driver’s seat of your 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix.
- Remove the Ignition Key: Ensure the ignition key is removed from the ignition lock cylinder.
- Close All Doors: Make sure all vehicle doors are completely closed.
- Locate and Remove the MALL PGM Fuse: Find the fuse panel, typically located inside the vehicle (refer to your owner’s manual for the exact location). Remove the MALL PGM fuse. This fuse is related to the মাল্টিপ্লেক্সড অ্যাকচুয়েটর লজিক (Multiplexed Actuator Logic) system, and removing it is part of the programming procedure.
- Turn Ignition to ACC: Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder and turn it to the ACC (Accessory) position.
- Cycle Ignition ACC to OFF: Turn the ignition lock cylinder from the ACC position to OFF, and then back to ACC within one second. Do this quickly.
- Open and Close the Door: Open and then close any vehicle door. This action signals the system to enter programming mode.
- Listen for the Chime: You should hear a chime sound, indicating that the remote control door lock receiver has entered the programming/diagnostic mode. If you do not hear a chime, repeat steps 1-7.
- Program the Transmitter: Press and hold both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob simultaneously for approximately 14 seconds. After about 7 seconds you may hear a chime confirming synchronization, and after 14 seconds, another chime should confirm successful programming of that transmitter.
- Program Additional Transmitters (If Necessary): If you have additional key fobs to program, repeat step 9 for each one. Remember to program all your desired transmitters in this session as previous programming is erased.
- Remove Key and Reinstall Fuse: Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder. Reinstall the MALL PGM fuse back into its original location in the fuse panel.
- Test Your Key Fobs: Validate that all programmed transmitters are working correctly by testing the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons to ensure they operate the door locks as expected.
By following these steps, you should be able to successfully program your 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix key fobs and restore the convenience of remote keyless entry. This DIY method can save you time and money compared to dealership programming.
