Step-by-Step Programming Guide for Your 2007 Pontiac G6 GT Key Fob
Follow these simple instructions to program your 2007 Pontiac G6 GT key fob:
- Get Comfortable in the Vehicle: Sit in the driver’s seat of your Pontiac G6 GT. Some find it easier to perform these steps from the front passenger seat for better access to the fuse panel.
- Ignition Key Removal: Ensure the ignition key is removed from the ignition lock cylinder.
- Close All Doors: Make sure all doors of your Pontiac G6 GT are completely closed.
- Fuse Removal: Locate and remove the MALL PGM fuse from your vehicle’s fuse panel. Refer to your owner’s manual for the exact location of the fuse panel and the MALL PGM fuse.
- Ignition to ACC: Turn the ignition lock cylinder to the ACC (Accessory) position.
- Cycle Ignition: Turn the ignition lock cylinder OFF, and then quickly back to the ACC position within one second.
- Door Cycle and Chime: Open and then close any vehicle door. Listen carefully for a chime sound. This chime indicates that the remote control door lock receiver has entered the programming/diagnostic mode. If you don’t hear a chime, restart from step 1.
- Transmitter Synchronization: Press and hold both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob transmitter simultaneously for approximately 14 seconds. You may hear a chime confirming successful synchronization after 7 seconds, and another chime confirming successful programming after 14 seconds.
- Program Additional Transmitters: To program additional key fobs, repeat step 8 for each transmitter you need to program. Up to 4 transmitters can be programmed.
- Remove Ignition Key: Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder.
- Fuse Reinstallation: Reinstall the MALL PGM fuse back into its location in the fuse panel.
- Functionality Validation: Test all programmed key fobs to ensure they are operating properly with your 2007 Pontiac G6 GT’s keyless entry system.
Important Programming Notes
- Erase Previous Programming: Be aware that once the keyless entry receiver enters programming mode, programming the first transmitter will erase all previously programmed transmitter information. Therefore, it’s crucial to program all of your key fobs (both old and new) during this session.
- Program One Vehicle at a Time: Only program one vehicle’s remote control door lock receiver at a time. Programming multiple receivers simultaneously could lead to a transmitter being inadvertently programmed to more than one vehicle.
- Listen for Confirmation Chimes: Pay close attention to the chimes as they are crucial indicators of successful synchronization and programming.
By following these detailed steps, you can confidently program your 2007 Pontiac G6 GT key fob and regain the convenience of keyless entry without incurring unnecessary expenses. Enjoy the savings and the satisfaction of DIY car maintenance!
