Here’s how to program your 2002 Silverado key fob:
-
Ensure all doors of your Chevrolet Silverado are fully closed. This is crucial for the programming sequence to initiate correctly.
-
Insert your key into the ignition cylinder. Be ready to proceed with the following steps promptly.
-
Press and HOLD the power UNLOCK button located on the driver’s side door panel. Maintain pressure on this button; you will continue to hold it until step 9.
-
The next steps (5 through 8) need to be performed in quick succession. Be prepared to execute them smoothly and rapidly.
-
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. This is the position right before starting the engine, where the dashboard lights illuminate.
-
Turn the ignition switch back to the OFF position. Do not remove the key, simply turn it back to the starting position.
-
Again, turn the ignition switch to the ON position, just as in step 5.
-
Return the ignition switch to the OFF position one more time.
-
Release the power UNLOCK button on the driver’s door panel. Upon releasing the button, the vehicle will automatically cycle the door locks, locking and then unlocking to confirm it has entered programming mode.
-
Now, take your key fob remote. Press and HOLD both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob simultaneously. Keep holding both buttons until you observe the door locks cycle once more (lock and unlock). This step may require holding the buttons for up to 30 seconds, so be patient.
-
If you have additional key fobs to program, including any existing remotes, repeat step 10 immediately for each additional transmitter. This must be done now, as the system exits programming mode shortly after.
-
To finalize the programming and exit the transmitter programming mode, turn the ignition switch to the ON position one last time. Your 2002 Silverado Key Fob Programming is now complete. Test all key fobs to ensure they are working correctly.
