Key Fob Help! Cant reprogram!!! 2007 Suburban LTZ
Help needed...
Have a 2007 Suburban LTZ that I presently have only one remote for...
Battery in remote went dead, so I replace and try to reprogram it....
Follow all instructions, it works for approximately two minutes---
Lock/unlock/remote start/power tailgate....all functions check out.
Walk away from the care for a few minutes, and voila!!....stops working and right back at square one...
Any ideas gents?
Thanks in advance for your help...

Not silly at all....Yes battery is fine, remote and contacts are all good.
It's uncanny, reprogrammed it 5 times and works every time, every function...as soon as I lock the car and walk away for two minutes, its like it forgets.
Could it have anything to do with the fact I only have one remote? I wouldnt think so, but.....

Thanks for the replies....
That's the exact set of directions that I used. Just ordered two new remotes, hoping that maybe that will do the trick...fingers crossed...especially with all the weather in the single digits recently...

Any Chevy techs on here with any ideas? Amazingly, as soon as I unlock the door with the key, the remotes work! I can't for the life of me figure this out. Will try disconnecting the battery and see if that does anything...

I know this is really a shotgun approach but try disconnecting the vehicle battery for a few minutes...then try the programming.... your dealing with a computer and sometimes a reboot will do wonders....or just make everything worse..
