All extra transmitters must be programmed at this time. When a new

transmitter is programmed, the old transmitters will be deactivated.

Hold down the lock and unlock buttons on the transmitter until the remote

control door lock receiver will respond in the following manner:

Locking the doors.

Unlocking the doors.

Repeat step 7 for each additional transmitter.

Turn the ignition switch to the ON position in order to exit the transmitter

programming mode.

tool, refer to Scan Tool instructions.

Memory Seat Recall Programming

Adjust the driver seat to the desired position.

Press the switch labeled SET. A chime confirmation will be heard.

Press the desired position switch labeled 1 or 2. Within 5 seconds from

pressing the SET switch, a chime confirmation will be heard.

Press the UNLOCK button on the desired transmitter (key fob) within 5

seconds from pressing the SET switch. A chime confirmation will be heard.

The transmitter (key fob) is now programmed with the desired position

switch. Pressing the transmitter UNLOCK button will cause a recall request

to be initiated and the seat will adjust to position 1 or 2.

The stored memory positions may be changed without having to reprogram the

transmitter.

The transmitter feature is available in all ignition positions.

Memory Seat Recall Unprogramming

Press the switch labeled SET. A chime confirmation will be heard.

Press the UNLOCK button on the transmitter (key fob) within 5 seconds from

pressing the SET switch.

Do not press any memory switch or power adjustment for 5 seconds. Pressing a

switch will cancel the unprogramming event and the transmitter will remain

programmed.

The transmitter (key fob) is now unprogrammed and pressing the UNLOCK button

will not effect memory seat operation.

No chime confirmation will be heard when the UNLOCK button is pressed if the

transmitter is unprogrammed.

Answer 2

I feel your pain.

Bought a 2005 Uplander from our elderly Aunt and immediately had an issue with the remote following a vehicle battery replacement. I looked everywhere, read multiple articles and found the dealer NEEDS to program match the remote to the vehicle. I would suggest getting 1 extra remote and having them programmed together, you can usually get a better deal for 2 of them at the same time. Shop around, the dealers all seem to charge a different price for this work.
