Are you looking to program a key fob for your 2000 GMC Yukon? This guide provides step-by-step instructions to program your keyless entry remote yourself. Programming a new or replacement key fob for your 2000 GMC Yukon can be done easily at home, saving you time and money compared to dealership programming.
This procedure will guide you through the process of programming your 2000 Gmc Yukon Key Fob. Please note that this process will erase all previously programmed remotes. Therefore, you must program all existing and new remotes you plan to use with your vehicle at this time. Ensure you have all key fobs you wish to program before beginning.
Here’s how to program your 2000 GMC Yukon key fob:
-
Begin by closing all the doors of your 2000 GMC Yukon. Insert the ignition key into the ignition cylinder, but do not turn the key to start the engine.
-
Locate the UNLOCK button on the driver’s side door panel. Press and HOLD the UNLOCK button down. Do not release the button until instructed in a later step.
-
While holding the UNLOCK button, quickly turn the ignition key from the ON position to the OFF position twice. The ON position is the position just before you would start the engine, and the OFF position is where you can remove the key. Do this quickly and ensure you return the key to the OFF position each time.
-
RELEASE the UNLOCK button on the door. Upon releasing the button, you should hear the door locks cycle from the lock position to the unlock position. This lock cycling indicates that your 2000 GMC Yukon has successfully entered the key fob programming mode.
Important: If the door locks cycle before you release the UNLOCK button, the programming sequence has not been initiated correctly. You will need to repeat the process from step one. If the locks continue to cycle prematurely, double-check that you are following each step precisely. If issues persist, there might be a malfunction in your vehicle’s keyless entry system.
-
Now, take the first key fob you wish to program. Simultaneously press and hold down both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob. Continue holding both buttons until the vehicle responds by cycling the door locks again. It’s important to note that programming a new, previously unpaired remote might take up to 5 minutes for the vehicle to recognize it. A key fob that has been previously paired with the vehicle will typically program much faster. Repeat this step for each additional key fob you wish to program, including any existing remotes you want to continue using.
-
To exit the key fob programming mode, turn the ignition key to the ON position. This action will conclude the programming process.
-
Programming is now complete. Remove the key from the ignition and test all programmed key fobs to ensure they are working correctly with your 2000 GMC Yukon’s keyless entry system.
