Need help programming my key fob. (Actuators not engaging -- SOLVED --)

Hi guys,

I have a 2001 which had an aftermarket keyless entry system installed by the previous owner. I removed the aftermarket setup and am trying to program an oem key fob.

I tried the method which involved going cycling the lock switch 5 times, but was unsuccessful to fall into the programming mode. After the second cycle the switch would stop locking and unlocking the front doors.

I then tried another method I found online which did not involve cycling the locks. This seemed to be successful as the locks auto cycled to show I was in programming mode.

Even though it was going into the programming mode the key fob would not program. Do I have the wrong key fob?? The FCC ID is HYQ12BBX.

I'm not sure whats going on. Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Thanks

Try it again (the method you did first) and when you press the lock/unlock button, manually lock/unlock it at the same time. This worked for me when my actuator wasn't strong enough to cycle the locks.

OK, I'll try it again today.

Thanks!

Thanks! I had the same problem as OP yesterday - received a different set of programming instructions that did not involve cycling through the locks. The seller then sent a new set of instructions that involved cycling the auto locks. My locks were also not fully engaging and your method worked for me.
