the engine. If the engine will not start, see
your GM dealer for service.

OFF, and remove the key.

4. Insert the key to be programmed and turn it to

ON within 10 seconds of removing the
previous key.

the key has been programmed. It may not
be apparent that the SECURITY message
went on due to how quickly the key is
programmed.
