Lost your 2006 Pontiac G6 Gt Key Fob or need to program a new one? Avoid expensive locksmith or dealership fees by programming it yourself. This guide provides simple, step-by-step instructions to get your key fob working quickly and affordably. It’s easier than you might think, and you can do it right from your driver’s seat.
Step-by-Step Programming Instructions
Follow these instructions carefully to program your 2006 Pontiac G6 GT key fob. Ensure you have all your key fobs ready, as programming one will erase all previous settings, and you’ll need to reprogram all of them. You can program up to four key fobs for your vehicle.
- Get Comfortable: Sit in the driver’s seat (or the front passenger seat, which some find easier).
- Key Out: Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder.
- Close Doors: Ensure all vehicle doors are completely closed.
- Fuse Removal: Locate and remove the MALL PGM fuse from your Pontiac G6’s fuse panel. Consult your vehicle’s owner manual if you are unsure of the fuse panel location or the MALL PGM fuse.
- Accessory Mode: Turn the ignition lock cylinder to the ACC (Accessory) position.
- Cycle Ignition: Turn the ignition lock cylinder OFF, then quickly back to the ACC position within one second.
- Open and Close Door: Open and then close any vehicle door.
- Programming Mode Confirmation: Listen for a chime. This chime indicates that the remote control door lock receiver has entered programming/diagnostic mode. If you don’t hear a chime, repeat steps 1-7.
- Synchronize Transmitter: Press and hold both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob simultaneously for 14 seconds. After approximately 7 seconds, you might hear a chime confirming synchronization, and after 14 seconds, another chime confirms successful programming.
- Program Additional Fobs: To program additional key fobs, repeat step 9 immediately for each fob.
- Key Out Again: Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder.
- Fuse Re-installation: Re-install the MALL PGM fuse back into its location in the fuse panel.
- Test Your Fobs: Verify that all programmed key fobs are working correctly by testing the lock, unlock, and other functions.
By following these steps, you can easily program your 2006 Pontiac G6 GT key fob and regain full keyless entry functionality without incurring hefty service charges. Enjoy the convenience of your programmed key fob!
