How to Program a 2016 GMC Sierra Ignition Chip Key Transponder

Step by Step How to Programming Instructions:

Programming with Recognized Transmitters:
1. Remove the key lock cylinder cap on the driver door handle. Place the two recognized transmitters in the cup holder.
2. Insert the vehicle key of one recognized transmitter into the key lock cylinder on the driver door handle. Turn the key counterclockwise to the unlock position five times within 10 seconds. The DIC displays “READY FOR REMOTE #2, 3, 4, ETC.”
3. Place the new transmitter into the transmitter pocket, located inside the center console storage area between the driver and front passenger seats, underneath the liner.
4. Press ENGINE START/STOP. When the transmitter is learned, the DIC display will show that it is ready to program the next transmitter.
5. Remove the transmitter from the transmitter pocket and press Unlock or Lock on the transmitter. To program additional transmitters, repeat Steps 3–5. When all additional transmitters are programmed, press and hold ENGINE START/STOP for 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
6. Put the key back into the transmitter.
7. Replace the key lock cylinder cap.
