Lost or need to replace your 2007 Pontiac G6 key fob? Don’t want to pay dealership prices for programming a new one? The good news is, you can program a key fob for your 2007 Pontiac G6 yourself, without any special tools. This guide will walk you through the process, saving you time and money.
This method works by utilizing your vehicle’s built-in keyless entry system programming mode. You can program up to four transmitters, so if you have multiple drivers or want spares, this DIY approach is perfect.
Before you begin, it’s important to understand a couple of key things. When you enter programming mode, any previously programmed transmitters will be erased. Therefore, you must program all of your key fobs (both old and new) during a single programming session. Also, program only one vehicle at a time to prevent accidentally programming a fob to the wrong car if you are working on multiple vehicles simultaneously.
Here’s how to program your 2007 Pontiac G6 key fob:
-
Get Comfortable in the Driver’s Seat: While technically the instructions say the driver’s seat, many find it easier to perform these steps from the front passenger seat. Position yourself comfortably in the front of your Pontiac G6.
-
Remove the Key: Ensure the ignition key is removed from the ignition lock cylinder.
-
Close All Doors: Make sure all doors of your 2007 Pontiac G6 are fully closed.
-
Locate and Remove the MALL PGM Fuse: Find the fuse panel in your Pontiac G6. Refer to your owner’s manual for the exact location of the fuse panel and the MALL PGM fuse. Remove the MALL PGM fuse from the fuse panel. This fuse is related to the মাল্টিপ্লেক্সড অ্যাকচুয়েটর লজিক মডিউল (Multiplexed Actuator Logic Module).
-
Ignition to ACC: Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder and turn it 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 a Door: Open and then close any vehicle door.
-
Listen for the Chime: You should hear a chime sound. This chime indicates that the remote control door lock receiver has successfully entered the programming/diagnostic mode. If you don’t hear a chime, carefully repeat steps 1 through 7.
-
Program the Transmitter(s): Immediately after hearing the chime, press and hold both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the key fob you wish to program simultaneously for approximately 14 seconds. After about 7 seconds, you might hear a chime confirming synchronization, and after 14 seconds, another chime should confirm successful programming of that key fob.
-
Repeat for Additional Fobs: If you have additional key fobs to program, repeat step 9 for each one.
-
Remove Key and Reinstall Fuse: Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder. Go back to the fuse panel and reinstall the MALL PGM fuse you removed in step 4.
-
Test Your Key Fobs: Thoroughly test all programmed key fobs to ensure they are working correctly, locking and unlocking the doors of your 2007 Pontiac G6.
By following these steps, you can successfully program your 2007 Pontiac G6 key fob and regain full remote access to your vehicle without the expense of professional programming. Enjoy the convenience and savings!
