I just watched this video and the step by programming worked the very first time I tired both of the key fobs/smart keys. I just have to now get the second key fob (the newer one) that is the key blade cut to match the original key bade in the original key fob. One only needs the blade key for emergency access on the driver door key hole to the vehicle in the event that the battery dies inside the key fob. At which point even without a working battery in the key fob if you insert the same key fob in to the small key fob holder inside of the center console storage area of the vechicle and push the engine start button, the vehicle will start. Thanks for the great content. All the best to you !

This worked for me on an 18 Yukon that had only 1 fob. Programmed a second aftermarket fob. I had to go through the procedure twice. First time the second fob didn't work and the first fob worked but showed a service theft system message. The second time both worked as they should and no error messages. I will say make sure your car is unlocked before you start as you might set off your theft system if unlock with key after locking with fob!

[@charesnumber1girl]

Thank you so much. Your videos have now saved me over 450 dollars. I only ended up spending 60 dollars on the new fobs from Amazon. I used the emergency key from the out of order fob. Thank you again. Life saver ❤

[@ittybittyspaces]

Just an FYI for others who may run into this problem- our display wasn’t “waking up” to prompt us after the first ten minutes. So we just did it exactly as instructed, pretending that we got the prompt to hit the start button. We did get the “ready for key fob #1” at the appropriate time though. No idea why our display wasn’t prompting us in the second step (the one that needed repeated every ten minutes) - but we got our fob programmed so we are happy! (2017 gmc Denali )

[@DomskiOKKK]

Where did you get your second key Fob from?

[@MarylandGuy]

I have FOB #2 and #3(uncut). I wanted to reprogram them to 1 and 2 so the seat memory would work. I put #2 in the door and did the 5 counter clockwise turns. The driver display then said "Ready for remote 4" Nothing I did changed anything so I held the start/stop for 12 seconds until the screen went blank. *****UPDATE***** If I would have just scrolled down further I would have solved my own problem. I didn't have the fobs far enough away to put it into learning mode. Once I got that far - the rest was easy. Thanks for the video and the feedback to the other users.

[@PYR-Auto]

[@stanleyscott9266]

Thank you for this valuable information. I bought a aftermarket remote from amazon. I attempted 3 times to get the aftermarket remote to program but no success. My problem now is the vehicle security light now stays on and says it need service. Would you have any ideas on how to remedy this? Thank you!!!! Now the truck will not start with push button after you remote start it?? I guess my new remote could have a bad battery? PROBLEM SOLVED,!!!!! The new remote I bought from amazon had a bad battery. Replaced battery and was able to program new remote and all works fine.

it will work but if you already have 1 working key there is a shorter procedure you can use. That video is here kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipXadaqvaquUoZo

Hi great video and extremely detail. I’m wondering if this is a step I should be doing on my 2016 GMC Yukon as well if what my issue is my remotes that were working for years quit working and I’ve replaced my batteries in each of them but still won’t remote start or even u lock or lock but it will start the car if I put both in the pocket. Now days I have to take the key out to unlock the door and the alarm goes off until I get the key in the pocket. Any help would be great.

[@PYR-Auto]

Thanks - Are you sure you installed the new batteries correctly? its pretty common to install them upside down.

[@JoanneJohnson-j7s]

This is GREAT! I just ordered a replacement key fob & the GMC dealership told me that it is a 1 shot deal with the programming, so if I make a mistake I won't be able to try again. Is that true??

[@PYR-Auto]

the key fobs lock to a vehicle once programmed but can be re-programmed to the exact same vehicle an unlimited number of times

[@jseib2293]

Hi, well done video but hoping you can help. i bought a 2018 that only had one remote. I bought an additional remote, and I followed these instructions carefully. I have gone through the sequence fully twice now, and after i progrma remote 2, and hit unlock, i hold the start stop for 12 seconds. But it always programs the new remote as remote 3, and not as remote 2, so the auto seat memory feature doest work because that only works with remote one and two. can I not program an afternmarket remote as remote 2?

[@jseib2293]

I just went through the entire sequence again, and my spare remote stills driver number three when I get in the truck.

[@PYR-Auto]

Try going though the procedure again but start with all the fobs far enough away from the vehicle so they cannot be detected.

[@jseib2293]

Thanks. It worked! I did that plus one more thing, I swapped the order of remote programming. So what was remote three is now remote one, and remote one is now two. Likely your trick was the cure but either way they now work and the memory works properly as well. Thanks for the reply!

[@michaelgarcia6443]

So you will need two keys to program? I only have one , the original got lost and got a new one from the dealer (only one)

[@PYR-Auto]

you need two keys total. So if you 1 existing key and 1 new key then you have 2 total

[@traxxashondaman]

[@PYR-Auto]

It would have to be unlocked by someone with the correct equipment first. These fobs lock to a vehicle once programmed and need to be unlocked before they can be used again.

After I program the first remote, pull it out, hit unlock and the "ready for remote 2" message pops up, the screen goes away quickly and nothing will populate on the screen. I have to hold down the power button for 12 seconds to exit programming mode and start the whole process over again...any thoughts?

[@PYR-Auto]

did you try just continuing with the procedure even after the message disappears?

I’m in the US, but I “think” my truck was manufactured in Canada. I have two fobs programmed as 2 and 3, and want them to be 1 and 2. Will this work on my truck or does where the vehicle was built take me out of the running? Also, if this won’t work because of that, can dealership fix this for me? Thanks so much

[@PYR-Auto]

Unfortunately this procedure does not work on Canadian built vehicles. Yes, a dealer or automotive locksmith should be able to erase the key fobs and reprogram them which would reset the driver #'s

[@suburbanhobbyist2752]

This worked like a charm for me, thanks! I didn't think it was working right but after 3 or 4 10 minute waiting periods it finally said to program key #1.

[@LauraGustin-e9u]

I have tried this several times and I am not getting the remote learn message after turning the key. My Yukon is from Canada, bought in the States, would this make a difference?

[@PYR-Auto]

Yes - that does make a difference. The Canadian built vehicles require two working keys in order to be able to program an additional key yourself.

[@hotboi6955]

If one of the key is lost will it still work if found? After I programed a new 1?

[@PYR-Auto]

This procedure will erase all previous remotes but they can be re-programmed to the same vehicle again if they are found.

[@solarguy12]

This all worked great with one exception. I have a 2018 GMC Yukon Denali. I had one working key and a new keyfob I bought online. After programming both keys, I found out that indeed my original key was keyfob #1, however the second (brand new key) was not keyfob #2 as I expected, it was programmed as keyfob #3, and therefore I was not able to link the new keyfob to Driver number 2. I was unable to get the new keyfob to be recognized as keyfob #2. When I repeat everthing from scratch using this youtube video, it tells me to insert keyfob #3. Shouldn't it be asking me for the first keyfob (aka #1) and then the next one (aka #2)? not sure what is going on. both keys work, just not seat setting for driver @2.

[@PYR-Auto]

Start with with the working key fobs far enough away from the vehicle so they cannot be read then go through the procedure just as it shown in the video.

[@camfam]

Did the same thing for me, I can’t get it to learn the 2nd key…

[@toubeeyang2979]

Having same issue. Original key fob #1 is driver 1 but the new key fob #2 is showing up as driver 3... tried it multiple times. Same result 😥

[@WhoaFiveOh]

When programming the remotes does this also erase the memory seats that are already set? We currently have only 1 working factory key (but we have Driver 1 and 2 programmed, I just use the button each time, which is a huge pain) and will be adding a second using the complete relearn procedure in your video. Will it keep the seat/mirror settings or will they need to be reset afterwards?

[@PYR-Auto]

which key fob the vehicle recognizes as driver 1 or 2 will be erased and then determined by the order in which you program the key fobs back in, but I'm actually not sure if the driver setting are erased from the vehicle itself

[@WhoaFiveOh]

@@PYR-Auto Ok, cool. I appreciate the response anyway! I can update after I do the programming.

[@Codystube1]

Hey I had 1 working key and was trying to add a second from a past Tahoe. I know now that doesn’t work. Went through the sequence and now neither will start the car or lock the doors. A second key that the dealership found for our Yukon is being sent to me. Will that key work or is it now deprogrammed also?

[@PYR-Auto]

It will be deprogrammed but you should be able to reprogram the original keys to the vehicle - these keys lock to a vehicle once programmed but can be reprogrammed to the exact same vehicle an unlimited number of times

[@Codystube1]

Bought a $20 Amazon key in hopes of getting rid of the theft deterrent code while we wait on the dealership. Amazon key seems identical aside from the GMC backplate. Sequence worked perfectly. Theft deterrent message gone, remote starts, locks/unlocks, no error messages! You’re a good man!

This worked for me and it was awesome but my lifters or knock sensors are making noise when engine running now? Anyone else experience this?

[@PYR-Auto]

Key fob programming would have no effect on that

Common issue with these engine. Get the active fuel management delete

I have a 2019 yukon that only had 1 working fob. The unlock button on the working fob was broken. I ordered a singular amazon fob and programmed that key as driver 1 and did not program any other keys. The new key works but has a theft message

[@PYR-Auto]

as is explained at the beginning of the video you need to program 2 remotes in total

@@PYR-Auto thank you for the reply. I got another remote on order!

The slot will be between the cupholders on the vehicle with bucket seats. You can see where that pocket is on in the video below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKfGgJiYhMiZqaM

I just got a 16 yukon and it came with 2 key fobs and they are set to driver 2 and 3. How do I set them to driver 1 and 2 for the memory seats? Tried this but it says add key 4

[@PYR-Auto]

Do the procedure shown in the video but make sure you have your keys far enough away from the vehicle so they cannot be read until the vehicle is in programming mode - otherwise the vehicle will "add" remotes instead of erasing all previous and starting from driver 1.

@@PYR-Auto thank you. I had the keys in my pocket when I tried it.

Apparently the fob I ordered off eBay won’t program. So now that theft deterrent like and message is stuck on. Any idea how to get it off? I’ve tried unhooking the battery, turning off program mode, etc

[@PYR-Auto]

If the vehicle will not let you exit programming mode by hold down the stop/start button you may need to successfully program 2 remotes - as shown in the video - to get the theft deterrent message off
