Here’s how to program your key fob for your 2007 Pontiac G6 without any special tools:
-
Get into the Driver’s Seat: Sit in the driver’s seat of your Pontiac G6. While technically the instructions say the driver’s seat, some find it easier to perform these steps from the front passenger seat.
-
Remove the Key from the Ignition: Take the ignition key completely out of the ignition lock cylinder.
-
Close All Doors: Ensure all doors of your Pontiac G6 are fully closed.
-
Locate and Remove the MALL PGM Fuse: Find the fuse panel in your Pontiac G6 and remove the MALL PGM fuse. Consult your vehicle’s owner manual for the exact location of the fuse panel and the MALL PGM fuse.

Turn Ignition to ACC: Turn the ignition lock cylinder to the ACC (Accessory) position.
-
Cycle Ignition ACC and OFF: Turn the ignition lock cylinder OFF, and then quickly back to the ACC position within one second.
-
Open and Close the Door: Open and then close any vehicle door.
-
Listen for the Chime: You should hear an audible chime. This chime indicates that the remote control door lock receiver has successfully entered the programming/diagnostic mode. If you do not hear a chime, repeat steps 1 through 7 again.
-
Synchronization Chime (Optional): After approximately 7 seconds, you might hear another chime. This chime confirms successful synchronization, but is not essential for the programming to work.
-
Programming Confirmation Chime: After roughly 14 seconds, you will hear another chime. This chime confirms that the system is ready for key fob programming.
-
Press and Hold Lock and Unlock: Take your key fob transmitter. Press and hold down both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for 14 seconds.
-
Program Additional Transmitters (If Needed): If you have additional key fobs to program, repeat step 11 for each additional transmitter.
-
Remove Key and Reinstall Fuse: Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder. Go back to the fuse panel and install the MALL PGM fuse back into its original location.
-
Test Your Key Fobs: Thoroughly test all programmed key fobs to ensure they are operating correctly. Check the lock, unlock, and any other functions on your key fob to validate successful programming.
By following these simple steps, you can program your 2007 Pontiac G6 key fob yourself, saving you both time and money. Enjoy the convenience of your working remote once again!
