Keyless Entry Remote Programming Instructions – 2003 Oldsmobile Aurora

Important Notice: The 2003 Oldsmobile Aurora does not support onboard programming for keyless entry remote fobs. Programming requires the use of professional diagnostic tools and must be completed by a qualified technician.

Programming Procedure:

• Step 1: Contact a certified automotive technician or authorized service center experienced with keyless entry systems and equipped with the appropriate diagnostic equipment for your vehicle.
• Step 2: Ensure the technician uses software compatible with your vehicle's electronic control unit to securely register and sync the new remote fob.
• Step 3: If the vehicle is operational, driving it to the technician’s location may help reduce additional fees associated with mobile service.
• Step 4: Schedule an appointment in advance, and bring all remote fobs with you. Many systems require that all remotes be programmed during the same session to ensure proper function.
• Step 5: Upon arrival, the technician will connect a diagnostic scanner to your vehicle’s onboard diagnostic port, located beneath the dashboard on the driver’s side.
• Step 6: The technician will initiate the programming sequence using specialized software to pair the remote fob with the vehicle’s onboard system.
• Step 7: Once the process is complete, the technician will test all key fob functions—such as locking, unlocking, trunk release, and panic—to confirm successful programming.
• Step 8: Personally test each remote before completing the session to ensure full functionality.
• Step 9: Store spare remotes in a secure location, and consider having an additional fob programmed as a backup for convenience or emergencies.
