Programming your key fob can seem like a daunting task, but with the right instructions, it can be a straightforward process you can complete at home. If you have a 15732803 Key Fob or a similar model and need to program it, this guide will walk you through the necessary steps. Ensure you have all your remotes, including any working ones, before you begin this procedure to guarantee a successful programming session.
Step-by-Step Key Fob Programming Instructions
Follow these instructions carefully to program your 15732803 key fob. It’s crucial to adhere to each step to avoid any issues during the programming process.
-
Initial Setup: Door Closure
Begin by ensuring all doors of your vehicle are completely closed. This is a critical starting point for initiating the programming sequence. -
Key Insertion
Insert your key into the ignition. Do not turn the ignition on yet; simply place the key in the ignition slot. -
Press and Hold the UNLOCK Button
Locate the power UNLOCK button on the driver’s side door panel. Press and hold this button down. Maintain pressure on the button and do not release it until instructed in step 5. This step is essential for preparing the vehicle to enter programming mode. -
Ignition Cycling
While continuing to hold the UNLOCK button, quickly turn the ignition from OFF to ON and back to OFF twice. The “ON” position is the point just before you would start the engine, and “OFF” is where you can remove the key. The sequence should be ON, OFF, ON, OFF, performed rapidly. -
Release the UNLOCK Button and Observe
Release the power unlock button on the driver’s side door panel. At this point, your vehicle should automatically respond by cycling the door locks – locking and then unlocking.-
Successful Entry into Programming Mode: If the locks cycle automatically after releasing the button, this indicates that your vehicle has successfully entered the programming mode. Proceed to step 6.
-
Locks Cycle Before Releasing Button: If the door locks begin to cycle lock and unlock before you release the unlock button, this means the vehicle has not entered programming mode. In this case, you will need to start the procedure over from step 1. Remove the key, open the door, and then close it again before restarting the sequence.
-
Continuous Lock/Unlock Cycling: If the vehicle continuously cycles the locks (lock and unlock repeatedly) even before releasing the button, this suggests a potential issue with the vehicle’s system. In such cases, programming the remotes yourself may not be possible, and it’s recommended to seek assistance from a certified professional or dealership.
-
No Lock Cycling: If you do not observe any door lock cycling after releasing the unlock button, several factors could be at play. You might be turning the ignition key too quickly or too slowly, there could be an underlying problem with your vehicle’s system, or your vehicle may not be equipped with a factory keyless entry system. Double-check your vehicle’s specifications and try the ignition cycling step again, ensuring a quick and precise motion.

Remote Synchronization – First Remote
Take the first remote you wish to program (this could be your 15732803 key fob or any other remote you need to program). Simultaneously press and hold both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the remote. Continue holding both buttons until the door locks cycle again. This synchronization process may take up to 30 seconds, so be patient and keep holding the buttons until you see the locks cycle. The cycling of the locks confirms that the vehicle has recognized the signal from the remote. -
Remote Synchronization – Additional Remotes
If you have additional remotes to program, including working ones, repeat step 6 for each of them immediately after the locks cycle for the previous remote. It’s important to program all remotes you intend to use in one programming session. -
Exit Programming Mode
To finalize the programming and exit the programming mode, turn the ignition key to the ON position. Keep it in the ON position for a moment, and then turn it back to OFF. -
Final Steps and Testing
Turn the ignition to the OFF position and remove the key from the ignition. Now, test each of your programmed remotes to ensure they are working correctly. Press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on each remote to verify that they control the door locks as expected.
By following these steps carefully, you should be able to successfully program your 15732803 key fob and any other compatible remotes for your vehicle. If you encounter any difficulties or the programming is unsuccessful, consider consulting a professional automotive technician or your local dealership for further assistance.
