I used to work at a Chrysler Dealership and programming the key fobs had to be done with the scanner or a computer unless you already had a working fob and just wanted to program a second one. But chevys might be different. Thats what I know.

Unless you have a buddy that works at GM, they'll most likely charge you .5 to connect the Tech II and spend less than a minute to program the key fob. If you go, make sure you take any other fobs you may have, as they all need to be programmed. Anything up to about 2006 or 2007 needs the Tech II. Many new vehicles that are newer than 06 can be programmed through the driver information center by the owner.
