2004 Key FOB
I have a 2004 Chev. Malibu Maxx and I got a new FOB and cannot program it. I have tried the two suggestons that I found posted on the forum, but with no luck. Does anyone know how to program a new FOB for the above mentioned car?
Thanks,
Scott

RE: 2004 Key FOB
Try this first. It worked on mine.
Close all the vehicle doors.
Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder.
Press and hold the DOOR unlock switch.
While holding the DOOR lock switch in the unlock position, cycle the ignition ON, OFF, ON, OFF.
Release the DOOR unlock switch. The doors will lock and unlock to confirm the program mode.
Press and hold the LOCK button and the UNLOCK button simultaneously on one keyless remote. After a delay of approximately 15 seconds , the doors will lock and unlock to confirm the programming of that transmitter.
Repeat the previous step to program up to four transmitters.
Turn the ignition switch to the RUN (one more click forward) position in order to exit the keyless entry transmitter mode.
Operate the transmitter functions in order to verify correct system operation

Hey Rodeo,
We just lost a key fob and I think I will have to pickup another one. I saw them at an online Chevy dealer for 67 with the remote start. Thanks for the detailed steps to program. We have an 04 Malibu Maxx also. I had read in another forum that if you have an OBD II diag tool you can put the car into program mode through that too. I have not picked up one of those tools yet but they are getting cheaper all the time.
Thank you!
Stephen
