2006 Suzuki XL7 Keyless Entry Remote Fob Programming Instructions

For Vehicles with a Standard Key and Remote Fob (Non-Smart Key System)

Important Note: These instructions are intended for models equipped with a traditional ignition key and a separate keyless entry remote. Follow the procedure below to enter programming mode and sync one or more remote fobs.

Step-by-Step Procedure:

  • Step 1: Remove the key from the ignition.
  • Step 2: Confirm all doors are fully closed.
  • Step 3: Open the driver’s door and leave it open during the entire procedure.
  • Step 4: Insert the key into the ignition, turn it to the ON position (do not start the engine), then turn it OFF and remove the key — all within 10 seconds.
  • Step 5: Within 20 seconds, quickly close and open the driver’s door three times.
  • Step 6: Reinsert the key into the ignition, turn it to the ON position, then turn it OFF and remove the key again — within 10 seconds.
  • Step 7: The door locks should automatically cycle (lock and unlock), indicating the vehicle has entered programming mode.
  • Step 8: Press the UNLOCK button on the remote fob. The door locks should cycle again to confirm that the remote has been successfully programmed.
  • Step 9: Repeat Step 8 for each additional remote fob you wish to program.
  • Step 10: Exit the vehicle, close all doors, and test each remote to ensure all keyless entry functions are working correctly.
