Must be programed by a Dealer
If you're asking about adding a NEW keyless remote, only a dealer can do that. It's a very specialized piece of equipment that can add the new remote to your vehicle's computer. If you're asking about RE-programming your keyless remote after replacing the battery, check the inside cover of the remote. It should give instructions on how to solve your problem.
Follow the written directions that came with the new keyless entry system - OR - take it to the Saturn dealership for programming. The have all the necessary equipment and proprietary software for doing that task.
There are two levels of "programming" of a Saturn keyless remote: 1. If you are just replacing the battery, follow the instructions on the inside of the remote. 2. If you old remote has failed and you want to use a replacement remote, you have to take it to an authorized GM dealer; only THEIR computer can program the replacement remote to your vehicle. 3. Try looking for someone with a TECH2 scanner that's what the GM guys would use, not OBD2 like they have at auto parts stores. 4. Find an auto locksmith. I found a local one at autolocksmithfinder.us I had mine done for almost half the price the dealer wanted
The Saturn dealership did all three of mine free of charge.
You can program the keyless entry remote, for your 2001 Saturn L200, by holding the unlock and lock weapons at the same time. The red light will flash on and off. The remote will be programmed when the red light stays illuminated.
That's a dealer item.
