Such a great video. The wife and I were wondering how to do this. Guess we could have read the manual but you did a great job on the video explaining each step.

Thanks so much for taking the time to create and post this video! I hiked out of the Grand Canyon on a broken ankle and got to my friend’s Traverse only to discover the key fob he had given me was dead. It was not intuitively obvious how to unlock and start the Traverse, but I was able to pull up this video and get into the vehicle and start it. Thanks so much!!

Thanks you so much. My key fob didn’t die but my car battery did, and this video helped me get in my car, jump the battery, and start my car. Thanks again.

Did you find that your remote didn’t work after you jumped the battery? My remotes worked fine until my battery died after leaving my hazards on for 3 hours lol

I might be needing to do this on my Trax if my spare fob doesn't work. The batteries are the same age, but the spare was hardly used. Thanks for letting me know about the possible alarm. I learned that the transmitter pocket was in the cup holder from a different video.

Thank you very much! The video helped me out of a sticky situation. I left the car in the sun, and I think the sensors got too hot, so the key was not detected. After the car cooled down, it worked.

Further question: How do I lock the fob in the Traverse to get in the lake. Your video was very helpful. Honda has it solved.

@PYR-Auto 2 жыл бұрын

I think to accomplish that you would need to remove the battery from the fob and then lock the fob in the vehicle using the emergency key

When I tried to put the cap back on the door handle I didn't start with the right side first. I don't think the right side is in all the way but now the key will not slide far enough up in the hole to get the plastic piece off again. Is there something I can do to line it up to where the key will fit in properly?

@PYR-Auto 2 ай бұрын

you will need to use a small flathead screw driver to carefully pry the tab on the left side of the cap in order to get the cap off

I changed the fob batttery last night because it said it had 0% and it worked it unlocked and everything. This morning, it only lit the lights up inside and wouldn’t work! I locked and unlocked it with the physical key 6 times and it said learning remote please wait and it went dark again so I opened the door and tried to start it and nothing happened just loud alarm 😢 I’ll try your way and hope it works

@albasoto 10 ай бұрын

Update it worked, it’s on! 🎉 but will I need to do this the next time I turn it on?

@albasoto 10 ай бұрын

Ok, so the fob isn’t working despite the brand new battery I put in. When I turned off the car it says no remote detected, (I put it back on the transmitter and that’s what it wanted) what do I do? How can I make the fob work again?

@PYR-Auto 10 ай бұрын

Typically, changing the battery in the fob is the fix - You may want to try a different battery just to be sure. If the problem persists there may be an issue with the fob itself

Okay now what if the key fob is damaged. Specifically the ring that touches the battery. It is broken (the ring is no longer full circle) chip could be damaged but appears fine aside from that.

depending on how badly it is broken the key fob may need to be replaced

Great job but who at GM thought this was a good design? Imagine you have a console full of stuff that has to be emptied to get to the magic FOB holder and you are in an area where the last thing you want to hear is a blaring car horn. Good thinking GM.
