Default Anyone know how to replace the Universal Remote System button module?

I just purchased a 2011 Chevrolet Suburban and was trying to program my Universal Home Remote system to open a DoorKing security gate to our vacation home. After trying to get it to work several different weekends, I gave up and called the LearCar2u company referenced in the Suburban/Tahoe Owners Manual. They told me I needed a new button module which was backordered for 3 months. I finally got the button module and now my dealer wants to charge me to put it into my new Suburban. I just spent about $55K for the vehicle and don't want spend more money.

Anyone know of a good reference for replacing this module so I don't ruin my interior?

Thanks for any help.

If it were me, I'd take it to a specialty shop. Places that specialize in remotes, anti-theft systems, stereos ect.

Why isn't it covered by the 3/36 warranty?
