How to Program a 2015 Chevrolet Colorado Ignition Chip Key Transponder

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

**Programming with a Recognized Transmitter (Key Vehicles Only):**

1. Insert the original programmed key into the ignition and turn it to the ON/RUN position.
2. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF and remove it.
3. Insert the new key to be programmed and turn it to the ON/RUN position within five seconds. The security light will turn off once the key has been programmed.
4. Repeat Steps 1–3 if additional keys are to be programmed.

**Programming without a Recognized Transmitter (Key Vehicles Only):**

– For U.S. owners: When a recognized key is not available, follow this procedure to program the first key. This process takes approximately 30 minutes.

1. Insert the new vehicle key into the ignition.
2. Turn to ON/RUN. The security light will illuminate.
3. Wait for 10 minutes until the security light turns off.
4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.
5. Repeat Steps 2–4 two more times. After the third time, turn to ON/RUN; the key is learned, and all previously known keys will no longer work. Remaining keys can be learned by following the procedure in “Programming with a Recognized Transmitter (Key Vehicles Only).”

**Programming with a Recognized Transmitter (Keyless Access Vehicles Only):**

– A new transmitter can be programmed to the vehicle when there is one recognized transmitter.

1. Place the recognized transmitter(s) in the transmitter pocket inside the center console storage area.
2. Insert the vehicle key of the new transmitter into the key lock cylinder on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays READY FOR REMOTE #2, 3, 4, or 5.
3. Place the new transmitter into the transmitter pocket.
4. Press the START button. When the transmitter is learned, the DIC will indicate readiness to program the next transmitter.
5. Remove the transmitter from the transmitter pocket and press UNLOCK. To program additional transmitters, repeat Steps 3–5.

**Programming without a Recognized Transmitter (Keyless Access Vehicles Only):**

– If there are no currently recognized transmitters available, follow this procedure to program up to eight transmitters. This feature is not available in Canada.

1. Insert the vehicle key of the transmitter into the key lock cylinder on the outside of the driver door and turn the key to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The DIC displays REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.
2. Wait for 10 minutes until the DIC displays PRESS ENGINE START BUTTON TO LEARN, then press the START button. The DIC will again show REMOTE LEARN PENDING, PLEASE WAIT.
3. Repeat Step 2 two additional times. After the third time, all previously known transmitters will no longer work with the vehicle. Remaining transmitters can be relearned during the next steps. The DIC display should now show READY FOR REMOTE #1.
4. Place the new transmitter into the transmitter pocket.
5. Press the START button. When the transmitter is learned, the DIC will indicate readiness to program the next transmitter.
6. Remove the transmitter from the transmitter pocket and press UNLOCK. To program additional transmitters, repeat Steps 4–6.
