How to Program a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Ignition Smart Chip Key Transponder

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

When there are two recognized RKE transmitters available, a new RKE transmitter can be programmed to the vehicle. Follow these steps:

1. Ensure the vehicle is turned off, and have all RKE transmitters, both recognized and new, with you.
2. Place the two programmed transmitters in the cupholder.
3. Remove the key lock cylinder cap.
4. Insert the vehicle key of the new RKE transmitter into the key lock cylinder located on the outside of the driver door. Turn the key counterclockwise to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The DIC will display “READY FOR REMOTE #3, 4, or 5.”
5. Remove the top tray and rubber mat inside the center console storage area. Place the new transmitter into the transmitter pocket.
6. Press ENGINE START/STOP. Once the RKE transmitter is learned, the DIC will indicate readiness to program the next transmitter.
7. Remove the RKE transmitter from the transmitter pocket and press the LOCK or UNLOCK button. To program additional RKE transmitters, repeat Steps 4–5. When all additional RKE transmitters are programmed, press and hold ENGINE START/STOP for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
8. Put the key back into the transmitter.

Programming without a Recognized Transmitter:

If there are no currently recognized RKE transmitters available, follow this procedure to program up to eight RKE transmitters. This procedure will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. The vehicle must be off, and all RKE transmitters you wish to program must be with you.

1. Remove the key lock cylinder cap from the driver’s door.
2. Insert the vehicle key of the RKE transmitter into the key lock cylinder located on the outside of the driver door. Turn the key counterclockwise to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The DIC will display “REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.”
3. Wait for 10 minutes until the DIC displays “PRESS ENGINE START BUTTON TO LEARN,” then press ENGINE START/STOP. The DIC will again display “REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.”
4. Repeat Step 2 two additional times. After the third time, all previously known RKE transmitters will no longer work with the vehicle. Remaining RKE transmitters can be relearned during the next steps. The DIC should now display “READY FOR REMOTE #1.”
5. Remove the top tray and rubber mat inside the center console storage area. Place the new transmitter into the transmitter pocket.
6. Press ENGINE START/STOP. Once the RKE transmitter is learned, the DIC will indicate readiness to program the next transmitter.
7. Remove the RKE transmitter from the storage bin and press LOCK or UNLOCK. To program additional RKE transmitters, repeat Steps 5–6. When all additional RKE transmitters are programmed, press and hold ENGINE START/STOP for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
8. Put the key back into the transmitter.
9. Replace the key lock cylinder cap.
